Job Description

Data Analyst - AI focused in Hardware Manufacturing, Quality & Reliability

Role Summary

This role sits at the intersection of data analytics, hardware manufacturing, quality & reliability engineering, and digital transformation. As an AI-savvy Data Analyst, you will generate value-driven insights from fleet-scale manufacturing, test, and deployment data while supporting New Product Introduction (NPI) and Product Operations teams.

You will transform complex manufacturing and quality concepts into data-driven metrics, intelligent dashboards, and AI-enabled applications. You will also lead initiatives that modernize manual workflows into scalable, automated, and insight-driven systems-leveraging statistical analysis, cloud data platforms, and AI technologies.

Key Responsibilities

Data Analysis & Engineering
  • Extract, transform, and analyze fleet-scale manufacturing, testing, deployment, and operational data using advanced SQL (DML).
  • Understand and translate manufacturing, quality, and reliability concepts into measurable, data-driven solutions and KPIs.
  • Perform statistical analysis on manufacturing test data to ensure data integrity, reliability, and readiness for automation and root-cause analysis.
  • Continuously provide feedback upstream to improve data quality, coverage, and performance.

AI, Automation & Intelligence
  • Identify and implement opportunities to automate manual workflows using AI and advanced analytics.
  • Develop AI-driven recommendation systems for data standards, anomaly detection, intelligent data mapping, and quality insights.
  • Support the integration of AI and ML services (e.g., Vertex AI, LLMs) into analytics workflows and intelligent applications.
  • Partner with engineers and product teams to embed AI capabilities into hardware NPI and manufacturing processes.

Visualization, Reporting & Executive Insights
  • Design, develop, and maintain interactive dashboards and reports using Looker Studio, Tableau, Power BI, or equivalent tools.
  • Visualize manufacturing performance, data quality scores, operational metrics, headcount status, and organizational spending.
  • Prepare executive-level summaries and presentations that distill complex technical data into clear, actionable insights.
  • Provide leadership with real-time, decision-ready visibility into manufacturing and operational health.

Cross-Functional Collaboration & Program Support
  • Interact professionally with engineers, product owners, suppliers, and subject-matter experts across manufacturing, quality, IT, and operations.
  • Provide technical guidance to suppliers and engineering teams on optimal data collection, standards, and data warehousing solutions.
  • Support multiple parallel initiatives by tracking progress, identifying risks, and escalating delivery impediments when needed.
  • Facilitate change management through documentation, communication plans, and process training.
