Product Engineering- DFMEA

Role & Responsibilities

• Lead the Failure analysis through various stages of product development like RFQàDesignàDevelopmentàProtoàValidationàSOPà SOP+90 days
• Through understanding of FMEA concept like “B-Diagram”, “P-Diagram”, Interface-matrix”, “Failure modes” and “Risk-analysis”,” Rating table”.
• Understand the Customer Specific Requirements / Inputs and capture the failure modes in FMEA and track them to closure till implementation.
• Requirement analysis capturing the “Input”, “Output”, “Function”, “Function Requirements”, Control Factors”, “Non-Function Requirements”
• Good Understanding of Lessons learned / Past trouble database / warranty issues and its implementation from Design stage to Validation
