Job description

Job Description

• NPI & Process Development: Lead process flow planning, line layout inputs, and workstation design from early concept through high-volume production ramp-up.
• Standardization & Documentation: Create and optimize SOPs, detailed work instructions, process flow diagrams, routings, and launch readiness checklists.
• DFM & Tolerancing: Collaborate with Product Engineering to provide Design for Manufacturability/Assembly (DFM/DFA) feedback and guide GD&T/tolerance stack-up practices.
• Quality & Risk Control: Lead PFMEAs, control plans, APQP/PPAP inputs, process validation trials, and structured root-cause analyses (8D, 5 Why, Fishbone).
• Automation & Controls: Partner with Equipment and Controls teams to deploy and validate tooling, fixtures, error-proofing (Poka-Yoke), sensors, and safety systems.
• Logistics & Material Flow: Integrate Plan for Every Part (PFEP) strategies, sequencing, packaging, and line-side material delivery configurations.
• Continuous Improvement: Troubleshoot shop-floor bottlenecks and optimize cycle times, yield, first-time quality, and OEE using Lean and Six Sigma tools.

Basic Qualifications

• Education: Bachelor’s degree in Manufacturing, Mechanical, Industrial, or Production Engineering.
• Experience: 7+ years in manufacturing engineering, industrialization, or production launch.
• Environment: Direct experience in large-scale discrete manufacturing (e.g., automotive, battery, energy, aerospace, or heavy equipment).
• Collaboration: Proven track record working with cross-functional teams spanning Quality, Facilities, Supply Chain, and EHS.

Preferred Qualifications

• Greenfield Exposure: Direct experience supporting greenfield facility development, equipment installation, commissioning, and operational handover.
• Technical Mastery: Deep knowledge of machining, assembly, fabrication, welding, surface treatments, or testing.
• Systems & Data: Familiarity with MES, SCADA, PLM, ERP (SAP), and manufacturing execution data analysis (OEE, Takt, line-balancing).

Mandatory Skills: Robotics

Experience: 5-8 Years
