Job Overview by Ladders

Qualifications

  • 5-7 years of experience in engineering material handling systems for heavy manufacturing
  • Proficiency in designing plant layouts and material flow systems
  • Strong analytical skills with a focus on calculating throughput and buffer sizes
  • Experience in specifying and commissioning equipment prioritizing safety
  • Ability to actively monitor and improve flow using data analysis
  • Familiarity with simulation tools (e.g., FlexSim, Plant Simulation) is a plus
  • Knowledge of warehouse management systems (WMS) and warehouse execution systems (WES), especially for heavy parts

Responsibilities

  • Design effective material flow throughout the factory from receipt to shipment
  • Engineer intralogistics systems, including layout, equipment specifications, and control logic
  • Own the dock-to-line replenishment process, ensuring efficient presentation and kitting of materials
  • Minimize unnecessary handling through careful measurement and engineering
  • Continuously improve systems based on daily flow monitoring and data analysis

Benefits

  • Commitment to pay equity and transparency
  • Opportunities for professional development and growth
  • Supportive work culture that values exceptional contributions
  • Focus on innovative engineering techniques and technology integration
Full Job Description
Role Scope
  • Design the material flow through the factory: from steel receipt to module shipout, across cranes, conveyance, AGVs, and staging.
  • Engineer the intralogistics systems: layouts, equipment specs, and the control logic that moves heavy parts safely.
  • Own dock-to-line replenishment: presentation, kitting, and the systems that keep stations fed.
  • Eliminate touches: every move measured, every unnecessary one engineered out.
What We're Looking For
  • The below is a starting point. We always make space for exceptional people, so if you don't fit this role exactly, tell us where you would.
  • You've engineered material handling for heavy manufacturing: cranes, AGVs, conveyors, or tuggers.
  • You've designed plant layouts and flows that survived the ramp.
  • You calculate throughput and buffer sizes instead of guessing them.
  • You've specified and commissioned handling equipment with safety at the core.
  • You walk the flow daily and fix what the data flags.
  • Bonus: Simulation tools (FlexSim, Plant Simulation). WMS and WES. Heavy and oversize part handling. Lean material flow.


We are committed to pay equity and transparency.
