Job Overview by Ladders

Qualifications

  • 5-7 years of experience in material handling for heavy manufacturing
  • Proven track record in designing effective plant layouts and material flows
  • Strong analytical skills for calculating throughput and buffer sizes
  • Experience specifying and commissioning safety-focused handling equipment
  • Ability to monitor and improve material flow using data-driven insights
  • Familiarity with simulation tools like FlexSim or Plant Simulation is a plus
  • Knowledge in warehouse management (WMS) and engineering systems (WES)

Responsibilities

  • Design the complete material flow from steel receipt to module shipment
  • Engineer and specify intralogistics systems for safe heavy part movement
  • Manage dock-to-line replenishment systems for efficient kitting and presentation
  • Streamline operations by minimizing unnecessary movements in material handling
  • Continuously assess and improve material flow using real-time data

Benefits

  • Commitment to pay equity and transparency
  • Opportunity to work with advanced automation and logistics technologies
  • Chance to shape the manufacturing process in a critical role
  • Supportive culture that values exceptional talent and encourages innovation
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.
