Experience:
Master Thesis:July, 2005~Present
Chaun-Choung Technology Corp. (CCI), Taipei, Taiwan.
Assistant Manager of Quality Assurance Department—CCI manufactures heat sinks, heat pipes, and thermal modules for Dell, HP, Intel, Apple, Asus, and so forth. CCI has design center in Taipei, Taiwan, and manufacturing factories in Taiwan, China, and Malaysia. Sales offices/representatives are located in United States, Korea, and England. I am mainly in charged for quality assurance of products, customer support, and statistical quality control. In quality assurance of products, to guarantee products to meet specifications is my priority. In customer support, I coordinate QA members to offer documents of PPAP, 8D or 5C reports for manufacturing process corrections, and Restrict of Hazardous Substance—RoHS as customers’ requests. In statistical quality control, concept and design for six sigma are required.March, 2004~June, 2005
SuperbIN Company LTD., Taipei, Taiwan.
Service Manager—SuperbIN is a sales and service representative of JSW (Japan Steel Works), Coherent (USA), Lambda Physik (Germany), and Exitech (UK) in Taiwan. I am mainly in charge for technical support for domestic customers, contacting manufacturing for customer support, coordinating engineers’ service, and laser/optics trainings for new employees/customers. (Note: JSW integrates excimer laser, optics, and robotic transportation for glass for TFT industrial customers. Coherent manufactures CW ion/diode lasers for scientific research and CD mastering. Lambda Physik manufactures pulse lasers for scientific research and laser annealing of amorphous silicon. And, Exitech integrates excimer laser, optics, and moving stages for micromachining—micro hole drilling, scribing/cutting metals, and so on.)October, 2003~December, 2004
Giesecke & Devrient America Inc., Taipei, Taiwan.
Sheets Inspection Engineer (Contractor)—I was the chief inspection engineer to inspect banknote production and provide quality assurance. GDAI integrates mechanical transport, electrical controllers, digital optics for image captures, and software for image comparisons. The system can precisely inspect sheet tears/holes, printing registration, stains, watermarks, security threads, and so on. I mainly coordinated engineers at CEPW (Central Engrave Printing Working), and reported to GDAI for service support to maintain the system running daily production.March, 2003~March, 2004
