Job summary

ResMed (Malaysia) Sdn Bhd (MY) in Singapore seeks a Senior Industrial Engineer to lead analysis, design, and optimization of manufacturing systems across factory and logistics operations. You will apply IE, Lean, data analytics, and automation to deliver scalable, cost-effective improvements.

The role focuses on process optimisation, material flow, factory layout, capacity design, and governance of IE standards, with cross-functional coaching and leadership.

Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in IE, Manufacturing IE, Mechanical IE, Systems IE or Operations IE.
• 5-8+ years of manufacturing/industrial engineering experience preferred.
• Lean Manufacturing, work measurement, line balancing, capacity modeling, factory/warehouse layout, material flow, ergonomics and manufacturing systems.

Responsibilities

• Analyze manufacturing processes using time study, work measurement, line balancing, value-stream mapping, and capacity analysis.
• Identify bottlenecks, waste, and productivity opportunities.
• Establish standard work, labor standards, cycle times, and engineered capacity models.
• Drive improvements in labor productivity, equipment utilization, throughput, lead time, and operating cost.
• Lead Lean/continuous-improvement initiatives using structured problem-solving methodologies.
• Design and optimise end-to-end material flow from receiving and warehouse through production to finished-goods dispatch.
• Define point-of-use inventory, line-side presentation, replenishment strategy, supermarkets, buffers, Kanban, milk runs, and material-handling methods.
• Optimise material movement to reduce handling, travel distance, WIP, and non-value-added activities.
• Collaborate with Supply Chain, Warehouse, Manufacturing, and 3PL teams on integrated material-flow solutions.
• Conduct space, capacity, adjacency, traffic-flow, and future-growth analysis.
• Balance production density with safe people, material, equipment, and autonomous-vehicle movement.
• Establish layout standards and design principles supporting Lean flow, flexibility, automation, and future expansion.
• Lead layout development for new products, capacity expansion, equipment installation, and factory transformation projects.
• Develop capacity models covering labor, equipment, space, material handling, and production constraints.
• Perform scenario analysis for volume changes, product mix, shift patterns, automation, and future demand.
• Determine appropriate resource requirements and identify capacity constraints.
• Support strategic manufacturing footprint and capital-investment decisions with quantitative analysis.
• Develop and maintain IE methodologies, design standards, calculation models, and engineering guidelines.
• Establish standardised approaches for time study, capacity calculation, layout design, material flow, space utilisation, and productivity measurement.
• Ensure engineering solutions comply with EHS, Quality, regulatory, ergonomic, and operational requirements.
• Promote replication of proven solutions and best practices across manufacturing sites.
• Analyse operational data to identify losses, constraints, and improvement opportunities.
• Develop engineering KPIs and performance models covering productivity, utilisation, capacity, flow, WIP, space, and cost.
• Use simulation, statistical analysis, visualisation, or digital modelling where appropriate.
• Validate improvement benefits through measurable before-and-after performance.
• Serve as an IE subject-matter expert for complex manufacturing and material-flow problems.
• Mentor junior Industrial Engineers and support development of IE capability.
• Review engineering analyses, layouts, standards, and improvement proposals.
• Facilitate workshops and provide technical guidance to cross-functional teams.
