Responsibilities

• Review drawings, bills of materials, tooling, assembly instructions, and inspection requirements before builds; identify missing or unclear information and coordinate resolution before affected work begins.
• Develop, maintain, and implement assembly procedures, work instructions, build travelers, checklists, and inspection records in the controlled document system.
• Define critical assembly steps and propose hold points, acceptance criteria, required measurements, and signoffs with Design Engineering and Quality.
• Ensure required approvals are obtained before work proceeds.
• Provide direct shop-floor support during critical operations.
• Capture practical knowledge from assemblers, service personnel, engineers, and suppliers, and incorporate it into approved procedures and training.
• Coordinate investigation and disposition of assembly issues; pause affected work when requirements are unclear or unmet and obtain authorized resolution before resuming.
• Train and coach assemblers on approved methods, drawing requirements, and build practices.
• Verify records are completed as work occurs and remain traceable to the pump.
• Work with the Test Engineer to establish assembly readiness for testing, investigate build-related findings, and implement approved manufacturing improvements.
• Improve tooling, assembly sequence, and work methods to reduce recurring errors.
• Follow applicable cleanliness and handling procedures for cryogenic and oxygen-service builds.
• Communicate with vendors and clients.
• Provide accurate technical information about manufacturing capabilities and shortfalls to Engineering, Sales, and Application groups.
• Travel to customer sites if requested by Engineering.
• Comply with required safety training and use Nikkiso-provided PPE as needed.
