Process Engineer (Tooling manufacturing)_PS_RBCD

Job Summary

• Responsible for tooling lifecycle management including design, in-house manufacturing, optimization, and cost control of cutting tools used in CNC machining processes.
• Focus on steel, stainless steel, and aluminum applications within the automotive industry, ensuring high performance, durability, and process stability.

Roles and Responsibilities

Tool Design & Development

• Design cutting tools (drills, milling cutters, reamers, inserts) for automotive components.
• Optimize geometry, coating, and edge preparation for different materials (steel, stainless steel, aluminum).
• Collaborate with process engineering for tool-path and machining strategy alignment.

In-house Tool Manufacturing

Manage and improve internal tool production processes including:

• CNC tool grinding (e.g., SAACKE, TTB or equivalent)
• Edge preparation (brushing, drag finishing, polishing) and tool coating coordination
• Ensure tooling quality, repeatability, and lead-time control.

Tool Localization & Supplier Development

• Drive localization strategy for cutting tools to reduce cost and lead time.
• Identify, develop, and qualify local tool suppliers (including grinding and coating vendors).
• Ensure localized tools meet performance, quality, and durability requirements.
• Lead trials, benchmarking, and validation of local alternatives vs. global standards.
• Collaborate with procurement and global teams to implement localization roadmap

Process Optimization & Cost Control

• Analyze tool performance (tool life, wear mechanisms, failure modes).
• Drive tooling cost reduction initiatives (e.g., regrinding, reuse strategy, supplier optimization).
• Support productivity improvement (cycle time, tool change frequency, scrap reduction).

Problem Solving & Troubleshooting

• Lead root cause analysis for machining issues (burrs, tool breakage, surface defects, instability).
• Implement corrective actions using structured methods (8D, 5Why, Fishbone).

Cross-functional Collaboration

• Work with production, quality, R&D, and external suppliers.
• Support new product introduction (NPI) and process development.
• Interface with global teams for best practice sharing.
• Master degree or above in Mechanical Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, or related field.
• 2~3+ years experience in tooling design and manufacturing within automotive or precision machining industry.
• Strong experience in:

CNC machining processes (turning, milling, drilling)

Tool grinding and tool geometry design

Machining of steel, stainless steel, and aluminum

Hands-on experience with in-house tool manufacturing setup is highly preferred.

Technical Skills

• Familiar with CAD/CAM tools (NX, SolidWorks, or similar).
• Deep understanding of:

Cutting theory (speed, feed, chip load, tool wear mechanisms)

Tool materials (carbide, coatings, substrates)

Experience with tool grinding machines and programming is a plus.

Data-driven mindset (Excel, Power BI, or similar tools preferred).

• English communication: good in English speaking. Able to communication for technical topics in English

Soft Skills

• Strong problem-solving capability with structured methodology.
• Good communication and coordination skills (cross-functional, international teams).
• Self-driven, result-oriented, and capable of working under pressure.

Preferred

• Experience in fuel cell / precision components / high-volume automotive production.
• Knowledge of cost modeling for tooling.
• Experience with supplier development (e.g., coating, tool vendors).
