Process Engineer

1. Process Engineering & Optimization

• Develop, establish, and optimize extrusion process parameters to achieve consistent product quality, dimensional accuracy, and production efficiency.
• Analyze process capability, yield, scrap rate, and cycle time to drive continuous improvement.
• Lead troubleshooting of extrusion-related issues such as surface defects, clarity issues, dimensional variation, and material flow problems.
• Define process windows, control plans, and critical process parameters (CPPs).

2. New Product Introduction (NPI) & Process Validation

• Lead and support new product trials, material qualification, and process development activities.
• Plan and execute process validation, including DOE, IQ/OQ/PQ where applicable.
• Collaborate with R&D, Quality, and Production teams to ensure smooth product transfer to mass production.

3. Automation & Equipment Support

• Provide engineering support for extrusion equipment and related automation systems.
• Support implementation, improvement, and optimization of automated handling or robotic systems in production lines.
• Work closely with Maintenance and Automation teams to improve equipment reliability, uptime, and performance.

4. Continuous Improvement & Cost Reduction

• Lead and participate in continuous improvement projects focused on productivity, yield, cost, and safety.
• Apply Lean Manufacturing, Six Sigma, or other structured problem-solving methodologies.
• Identify and implement improvements in tooling design, equipment layout, and workflow efficiency.

5. Quality & Compliance

• Ensure all processes comply with product specifications, quality standards, and internal procedures.
• Support root cause analysis, corrective and preventive actions (CAPA) related to process issues.
• Monitor key process indicators (KPIs) and drive corrective actions when targets are not met.

6. Documentation & Technical Reporting

• Develop and maintain process documentation, including SOPs, work instructions, control plans, and process flow diagrams.

7. Cross-Functional Collaboration

• Provide technical guidance and training to technicians and production operators.
• Support audits, customer visits, and technical reviews when required.

Job Requirements:

• Minimum possess STPM/Certificate/Diploma or Bachelor’s Degree in Mechanical Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Electronic Engineering, Polymer Engineering, or related engineering field.
• Minimum 1–2 years of relevant experience in an industrial manufacturing process. Added advantage if experience in plastic extrusion or a production environment.
• Experience with industrial robots such as Fanuc, Yaskawa, ABB, or KUKA or knowledge of polymer extrusion processes and automation control systems is an added advantage.
• Good written and spoken skills in English and Bahasa Malaysia. Being able to read and speak Mandarin is an added advantage as this role is required to liaise with Taiwan and China customers.
• Fresh graduates are encouraged to apply.
