• Reduced hardware evaluation effort by ~2 man-hours per circuit through streamlined validation methodologies.
• Prevented USB compliance risks by modernizing validation processes and implementing next-generation test fixtures.
• Delivered USB-C enablement on prototype mainboards within a 5-month development timeline through cross-functional collaboration with HQ teams.
• Generated an estimated USD 1.6M in savings by qualifying and introducing 6 alternative components while maintaining product performance and reliability.
• Accelerated ODM DVT readiness by 2 months through the creation of comprehensive ACAS technical documentation.

Key achievement:

• Established 2 new production lines and achieved production readiness in 4 months, supporting successful plant startup.
• Drove a reduction in PCBA failure rates from 21% to 1% through root-cause analysis of PCB design and material changes.
• Resolved a critical PCBA yield issue by uncovering test-limit management deficiencies and implementing preventive process controls.

Key achievement: Identified 2 design flaws and 1 hardware redundancy through failure analysis, driving PCB redesigns to resolve recurring product issues.
