About The Position

BAE Systems is looking for a Bonding Process Engineer II to work in a fast-paced manufacturing environment at their Nashua, New Hampshire facility. Working closely with multi-disciplinary teams and being able to adapt to a rapidly changing production environment brings with it an exciting opportunity to influence the successful execution of production goals and achieving operational excellence. In this role, the process engineer will be responsible for process engineering, assembly process development, and new process implementation. Through hands-on problem solving, data analyses and application of Six Sigma and lean manufacturing principles, the process engineer will drive improvements in assembly processes, throughput and yields. You will serve as the subject matter expert, bridging the gap between engineering, product integration and stable, high yield manufacturing.

Requirements

Bachelor’s Degree preferred OR 2+ years of experience in a mechanical engineering or related field, electronics assembly, or semiconductor packaging, preferrably wire/wedge bonding micro-electronic subassemblies.
Proven ability to understand, analyze and resolve complex technical problems.
Adaptability: Ability to maintain high quality and accuracy while working in a fast-paced, production-driven environment.
Must be able to obtain a secret clearance
2+ years of direct experience wire/wedge bonding microelectronic subassemblies, preferably in programming autobonders (Palomar 8000/9000) & manual bonders (WestBond).
Familiarity with strict quality and environmental standards such as MIL-STD-883, MIL-PRF-38534, ISO 9001, and AS9100.
Prior experience working within a DoD environment, active or ability to acquire a secret security clearance.
Relevant process engineering or manufacturing engineering industry experience, preferably in electro-mechanical manufacturing.
Hands-on experience with wire bond equipment.
Proficiency in CAD software (e.g., SolidWorks, AutoCAD).
Demonstrated mastery of Design of Experiments (DOE), root cause analysis, and Statistical Process Control (SPC).
Green Belt and Lean manufacturing training and demonstrated ability to apply these principles.
