• Performed assembly, testing, troubleshooting, and rework of electromechanical valve components, supporting process quality within a Statistical Process Control (SPC)-driven manufacturing environment.
• Utilized precision measuring instruments to validate tolerances, applying a systematic methodology to troubleshoot and rework electromechanical assemblies.
• Operated automatic and semi-automatic testing and assembly equipment to ensure efficient and accurate testing processes.
• Interpreted complex engineering drawings and Bills of Materials (BOM) to ensure precise assembly and testing of mechanical components.
• Collaborated with production and engineering teams to investigate out-of-control conditions and Cpk deviations, resolving assembly/testing issues to maintain consistent product flow.
• Supported quality assurance processes by identifying defects, enhancing compliance with manufacturing standards.

Environment: Windows, MS Office.

• Performed system, functional, regression, and stress testing for embedded ventilator software to ensure safety and performance compliance.
• Validated hardware-software interfaces by monitoring data flow between software and physical components (sensors/actuators), ensuring high performance and stability during 24-hour stress tests that simulated real-world conditions.
• Collaborated with cross-functional teams to interface software with Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) test setups, leveraging the ASL 5000 Lung Simulator to validate real-time ventilator system behavior under simulated physiological conditions.
• Conducted Root Cause Analysis on hardware-software integration defects, collaborating with cross-functional teams to expedite resolution of critical issues.
• Established serial communication between PC and hardware modules using RS232/UART to USB interfaces; utilized Tera Term for real-time log acquisition, baud rate configuration, and system monitoring.
• Logged, documented, and tracked defects found during testing, detailing steps to reproduce, severity, and priority to facilitate effective issue resolution.
