Job Summary
Job Title: Engineer SMT Machine (X-ray Programming)
Job Summary:
The Engineer SMT Machine (X-ray Programming) is responsible for programming operating and optimizing X-ray inspection systems used in SMT (Surface Mount Technology) manufacturing. The role ensures high-quality solder joint inspection defect detection and continuous process improvement in PCB assembly.
Key Responsibilities:
- Develop and optimize X-ray inspection programs for SMT assemblies (BGA QFN CSP etc.)
- Operate and maintain X-ray inspection machines (AXI/Manual X-ray systems)
- Analyze X-ray images to detect defects such as voids shorts misalignment and insufficient solder
- Work closely with production and quality teams to resolve soldering and assembly issues
- Perform root cause analysis using X-ray data and implement corrective actions
- Validate new product introduction (NPI) by creating inspection programs and standards
- Ensure compliance with IPC standards (e.g. IPC-A-610)
- Maintain documentation for inspection programs reports and process changes
- Train operators and technicians on X-ray inspection procedures
- Support continuous improvement initiatives (yield improvement defect reduction)
- Coordinate with SMT machine engineers for process optimization
Required Skills & Qualifications:
- Bachelors degree in Electronics Electrical Engineering or related field
- 25 years of experience in SMT manufacturing or PCB assembly
- Hands-on experience with X-ray inspection systems
- Strong understanding of SMT processes and soldering defects
- Knowledge of BGA void analysis and IPC standards
- Ability to interpret X-ray images and technical drawings
- Familiarity with AOI/AXI programming is an advantage
- Good problem-solving and analytical skills
Preferably - Nordson Matrix Axi- programming is helpful
