Roles & Responsibilities

Job Description:

• Gather and document user’s requirements and specifications for the design, development and deployment of a Smart Factory Automation for Industry 4.0.
• Create Smart Factory Automation project charter and packages which cover project goals, design, scope & benefits, schedules & milestones, risk identification & mitigation, stakeholders & responsibilities, constraints.
• Manage automation projects with vendors and internal stakeholders.
• Conduct and participate in regular meetings and discussions with cross-functional stakeholders (internal) and vendors (external) for smart factory automation presentation, project planning, factory layout, technical design review, status update, execution progress, incident reports (8D), cross-function coordination.
• Contribute significantly to the holistic design of a fully functional Smart Factory Automation systems from the front-end to back-end processes using industrial Robots/Cobots, Autonomous Mobile Robot (AMR), Auto Retrieval System (ARS), Conveyors, E-Rack, ASD/RTD, MES, Equipment host server. This includes both hardware and software aspects of the design.
• Quantify, model, simulate, validate and implement best-in-class automation key performance indicators and practices for safety, system optimization, maintainability & reliability, throughput & cycle time, best AMR travel mapping, utilization, availability, batch processing, loading ratio, etc. to support just-in-time production volume targets.
• Design and develop control system, upgrades and modification packages to enhance the capabilities of existing factory automation and equipment for the smart factory system integration.
• Work very closely with vendors as per requirements on the system designs, fabrication, delivery schedule, quality, safety & standard compliance, performance, optimization, setup and buy-off.
• Focus on equipment / process control systems design objectives such as: optimization, efficient algorithms, software engineering, highest reliability and maintainability.
• Ensure compliance with Operational Health and Safety for all machines hardware and electronics/electrical systems.
• Create and submit SOP and OCAP documents for new and upgraded systems. Organize trainings for operators and technicians.
