Job summary

ICHOR Systems Malaysia Sdn Bhd is seeking an experienced Industrial/Manufacturing Engineer to optimize precision machining processes, improve efficiency, and reduce scrap across CNC milling, turning, and multi-axis cells.

You will lead time-and-motion studies, develop standard work and takt times, and collaborate with programs to refine speeds and feeds while ensuring robust fixturing and tooling. This is a hands-on role in a high‑mix/low‑volume environment with ERP/MRP exposure.

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Industrial Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, or related mechanical discipline.

Responsibilities

• Evaluate existing CNC milling, turning, and multi-axis machining processes to eliminate bottlenecks and reduce scrap.
• Conduct time and motion studies to establish accurate labor standards, standard work instructions, and takt times.
• Design and improve custom work holding fixtures, cutting tools, and automated loading equipment to enhance safety and repeatability.
• Optimize shop floor layouts for raw materials and finished parts to improve material flow and reduce WIP.
• Collaborate with programmers and machinists to prove out new programs and refine cutting parameters (speeds and feeds).
• Partner with quality teams to resolve dimensional non-conformances and drive corrective actions (e.g., 8D, Fishbone analysis).
• Create and maintain accurate Bill of Materials (BOMs), routings, and process travelers within the ERP system.
