Stainless Steel BG | Ethan WuWe learn and grow together day by day to improve ourselves for successful career development.
I’m primarily responsible for automated data capturing and text analysis through machine learning. Before, I was responsible for web crawler programming and ETL implementation for employee recruitment, assurance of enhancement of data analysis quality provided to the Big Data and Cyber Security Division, or organizing the steel rolling operation’s OPL documents while extracting and categorizing suitable OPL keywords to help plant site directors strengthen their review of the appropriateness of OPL documents as a preliminary process of knowledge extraction applicable to various projects.
At present, my research project focuses on establishment of Walsin Lihwa’s proprietary knowledge graph to help the Human Resources Division strengthen employee recruitment and employee turnover forecast efficiency. Walsin Lihwa has not only strengthened my professional knowledge and skills but also broadened my perspectives on many things. Now I know how to analyze, categorize, and summarize what I’m unfamiliar with, and the ability to think from others’ viewpoints is my most significant gain at Walsin Lihwa.
Before I joined Walsin Lihwa in 2018, I had experienced several jobs of different natures. I’m glad to face up to challenges probably because of my educational backgrounds. I majored in Journalism but earned an MBA degree afterwards; I had to spend more time at school because of my different undergraduate and graduate majors. I joined Walsin Lihwa primarily because of my curiosity about how this traditional industry company established five decades ago can deal with various industry trends to transform itself while striking a balance between tradition and innovation.
At Walsin Lihwa for more than two years, I’m responsible for marketing at the head office, Stainless Steel Business Group, and Wire and Cable Business Group, where I’m always required to have market insights as well as logic thinking and analysis skills. I’ve participated in new business model strategy development for the Wire and Cable Business Group and helped the Stainless Steel Business Group gather business intelligence on the industry upstream to downstream in Taiwan and overseas. Such involvement helped me combine my experiences in business analysis and planning to meet a variety of project needs at individual business groups, letting me realize Walsin Lihwa is willing to provide sufficient leeway to new employees for them to develop their potentials. Therefore, I hope I can continue learning how to face up to industry uncertainties, live with them, and make changes for the better to grow together with the company.
I chose to join Walsin Lihwa because the company’s vison for Industry 4.0 met my expectations for my Substitute Military Service in the category of R&D. Joining Walsin Lihwa has indeed let me realize systematic teamwork is key to the success of Industry 4.0.
I was responsible for a system simulation project for one year to set up communication channels, learn how to use the system simulation software, and try to help more people understand the project to facilitate the project implementation. Afterwards, I went to the Yenshui plant for a two-week internship to gain a better understanding of production lines and then went to the Procurement Division in Taichung to promote procurement transparency while collecting and organizing the information on waste acid disposal companies. At present, I am a seed instructor of system simulation and also continue my on-the-job learning. My rotation between different jobs at Walsin Lihwa has helped me step out of my comfort zone to benefit myself from different perspectives.
It’s been a long time since I graduated from college and joined the workforce in 2004. When I first joined the Wire and Cable Business Group of Walsin Lihwa, I doubted if I could attend any EMBA program as I had no managerial experience, but was given an opportunity to attend Chung Yuan Christian University’s EMBA program. The EMBA training has significantly helped me strengthen my competencies for issue analysis and resolution as well as management communications.
Therefore, I consider Walsin Lihwa a company capable of ongoing self-renovation for sustainable management by placing great trust in professionalism, valuing cultivation of talents, and meeting customer needs and wants with flexible product types and applications to strengthen operational efficiency. I’ve benefited from multidimensional professional development at Walsin Lihwa and take pride in being a member of the company. I’ve completed my EMBA program and will keep asking myself to do increasingly better at home and work for successful self-fulfillment.
I joined Walsin Lihwa as a mold design engineer using computer-aided engineering (CAE) tools for mold design at the Changshu plant. However, I didn’t even hear about so many molds at the plant when I was back in school, not to mention any hands-on experience in real-world design. I started with cold-rolled plugs to step by step learn about the molds for cold and heat processing and began to familiarize myself with the design of molds at the Yenshui plant and some customers, I became increasingly knowledgeable of stainless steel mill operations through my experience in design, outsourcing, inspection upon delivery, and on-production-line tests of mold properties,
Later on, I was responsible for mold design as well as some cold and heat processing recommendations at the Stainless Steel Business Group. What I do at Walsin Lihwa is quite challenging because considerable knowledge in mechanics, mechanisms, materials science, thermodynamics, geometry, manufacturing technology, process control, CAE data analysis, and programing languages is required for combining such knowledge with hands-on experiences in production lines. Now I’m trying to independently develop modules of commercial system add-ons to link such modules with real-world CAE applications and apply the concept of CAE mold design to production line manufacturing. I also continue studying by myself and thinking how to realize the design concept by leveraging today’s new technologies.
