Education/Experience: 2+ years in a manufacturing environment (Electronics preferred) with a degree in Engineering, Data Science, or a related technical field.

## Description

We are seeking a Manufacturing Data Analyst to be the "data architect" for our electronics manufacturing facility. This role sits at the critical intersection of the Prototyping to Production pipeline. You will be responsible for hunting down data from diverse manufacturing equipment, parsing disparate file types, and building the automated reporting infrastructure that defines our success.

The ideal candidate is part data detective and part automation enthusiast-someone who isn't afraid to manually build a report today while writing the Python script to automate it tomorrow., * Data Acquisition:

 + Identify and extract data from SMT lines, AOI, AXI, and functional test fixtures.
 + Work with equipment vendors to unlock data access or develop custom reporting exports.
 + Parse and clean "messy" data from flat files (CSV, XML, JSON) and MES databases.
 * Performance Metrics & Statistical Analysis:
 + Develop and maintain reports for First Pass Yield (FPY), Parametric Test Trends, and Process Capability (Cpk).
 + Visualize data distributions to help engineers identify "drift" during the prototyping and manufacturing phases.
 * Reporting Automation: Design and implement Python scripts or BI tools to replace manual Excel-based workflows.
 + Standardize reporting formats across different product lines.
 * Cross-Functional Collaboration: Present findings to Engineering and NPI (New Product Introduction) teams to drive design changes that improve manufacturability.
