Primary Function of Position:

Contribute your leadership and technical skills in the areas of manufacturing process technologies, problem-solving, training, and project management in a growing medical device company. In this key role, you will be the driving force behind Lean tool implementation and continuous improvement projects site-wide. Your combination of training, motivational skills, analytical problem-solving ability, and passion for Lean manufacturing will be just the right fit for the manufacturing environment of precision instruments for minimally invasive robotic surgery.

Roles & Responsibilities:

• Manufacturing responsibility for tooling/fixtures, manufacturing equipment, and design improvements production.
• Evaluate and challenge mechanism designs for reliability, functionality, and manufacturability. Provide suggested change proposals.
• Evaluate designs for manufacturability (with respect to tooling and assembly methods). Provide suggested change proposals, or tooling concepts during the early design process phase.
• Design, document, and create an efficient "High-volume" manufacturing assembly line including:
  • Workplace and flow process development
  • Specify, document, procure, repair, maintain, qualify, and implement fixtures, hand tools, and equipment.
  • Determine and incorporate critical feature inspection and test checkpoints into the process. Document if discrepancies, actions or steps are required.
  • Approve design releases to manufacturing, review engineering documentation, and provide vendor and in-house DFM inputs.
  • Review/approve and determine the impact of ECOs from manufacturing and field perspectives.
  • Take responsibility for developing and maintaining compliance with the quality system.
  • Evaluate and help in the selection of suppliers for mechanical parts if required. Help resolve supplier quality issues.
  • Hire, train, develop and motivate production personnel to follow procedures, and meet high-quality standards, production schedules, and productivity requirements.
  • Update and revise Manufacturing Process Instructions (MPIs) to ensure accuracy and completeness
  • Address line support issues as they arise
  • Document and report any variances, problems, issues, or concerns on all aspects of the manufacturing process
  • Provide production personnel with expectations and performance feedback regularly in the production process
  • Drive improvements in safety, quality, production, and cost
  • Plan, supervise, drive improvement, and report production performance including output, yields, root causes, failures, efficiencies, and trends
  • Understand, train personnel, and enforce strict adherence to the applicable Department Operating Procedures (DOPs) and Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) of the Quality System
  • Maintain up to date and accessible training records for MPIs and Quality System documents
  • Assist in setting and attaining quarterly and annual production goals
  • Learn and enforce company safety policies and practices
  • Investigate, lead or support sub-assembly or process outsourcing initiatives
  • Review and disposition of discrepant material in the manufacturing line. Implement corrective actions to prevent recurrences.
  • Active participant in quality improvement initiatives, providing feedback to find the root cause and problem-solving.
  • Design and documentation responsibilities for custom and standard production tooling/fixtures.
  • Process and part design/documentation duties for cost reduction programs.

Skills, Experience, Education, & Training:

• Strong Lean manufacturing implementation and training experience are an absolute requirement! Six Sigma background and knowledge is also highly desirable. Must be a hands‑on team player with a broad background able to interact cross‑functionally to develop improvement strategies and implement solutions. We need someone with an unfailing commitment to continuous improvement.
• BSME required.
• MSME preferred.
• Customs and material department knowledge preferred
• Strong communications skills across team organizations and cultures.
• Interface with shipping and receiving activities preferred.
• Mid/high volume complex mechanism manufacturing engineering experience preferred.
• New product introduction/development desirable. Robotics knowledge is a plus.
• Experienced in ISO 13485, or medical device manufacturing environment.
• CAD experience preferred (ProE, AutoCAD).
• Must be able to speak, read and write in English 90%.
• Must be able to travel to the USA
