From Amprius Technologies, Inc.'s posting. “We” and “our” refer to the employer.
Amprius Technologies (NYSE: AMPX) is a leader in high-energy, high-power lithium-ion batteries built on silicon anode technology. Our SiCore® and SiMaxx™ cells power unmanned aerial systems, aviation and other applications where weight and energy density matter most. Headquartered in Fremont, California, Amprius designs cells in house and produces them through a global network of contract manufacturing partners.
Summary
Amprius Technologies is hiring hands-on Manufacturing Process Engineers (Senior or Staff level, depending on experience) to join our Manufacturing group in Fremont, CA. The engineer will own the process parameters, first-pass yield, and throughput of a group of lithium-ion cell-assembly stations — front-end assembly (electrode notching, stacking, and tab welding) or back-end assembly (pouch forming, sealing, electrolyte fill, and degas) — with station assignments based on experience.
You will join as we bring new pilot-line equipment online and ramp it to full production rate. These are highly visible roles reporting to the Pilot Line Manager.
Within your first year, you will own first-pass yield and overall equipment effectiveness (OEE) for your stations, have released qualified process windows, control plans, and SOPs for each, and have delivered measurable yield and cycle-time improvements that show up in the line's output.
Job Responsibilities
· Key role in lithium-ion cell manufacturing.
· Own process parameters for your assigned cell-assembly stations: develop recipes, define and qualify process windows, and maintain process specifications and control plans.
· Design and run structured experiments (DOE) to optimize parameters against yield, cycle time, and cell performance, and release the results as specifications, SOPs, and operator training.
· Own first-pass yield and scrap at your stations: build defect Paretos, lead root-cause investigations (8D, 5-Why, fishbone), and drive corrective and preventive actions to closure.
· Drive throughput: measure OEE and cycle time, identify bottlenecks, lead line-balancing and changeover-reduction efforts, and quantify the capacity gained.
· Implement SPC and in-line inspection on critical process parameters, and set up data collection (tool logs, MES) so yield and throughput are visible by station, product, and shift.
· Lead PFMEAs and control plans for new or changed processes, and qualify changes with capability studies (Cpk, Gage R&R) before release to production.
· Partner with equipment vendors, maintenance, and controls engineering to resolve tool issues that limit yield or uptime; support FAT/SAT and new-tool introduction as needed.
· Write and maintain SOPs and work instructions; train and mentor technicians and operators.
· Support daily production: troubleshoot process excursions, disposition nonconforming material, and respond to off-shift escalations when needed.
· Apply lean and Six Sigma methods to continuous improvement across the assembly line, and champion safe handling of electrolyte, lithium-ion cells, and dry-room operations.
· Work with R&D engineers to develop new processes for new products.
· Maintain active role on internal continuous improvement.
· Mentor and supervise lab technicians as required.
