Lead continuous improvement initiatives using Lean Manufacturing, PDCA, root cause analysis, time studies, line balancing, and other structured problem-solving methods to improve process capability, efficiency, reliability, and reduce scrap, rework, cycle time, and labor requirements
Develop and improve production lines, work cells, workstations, material flow, tooling, fixtures, and work methods to support efficient, ergonomic, and repeatable manufacturing operations, including appropriate process controls and error-proofing
Troubleshoot manufacturing process, equipment, tooling, and product-related issues; identify root causes and implement practical, sustainable solutions to restore and improve production performance
Support new product introductions, engineering changes, and production transfers, including development and validation of manufacturing processes, equipment, tooling, documentation, and production requirements
Lead manufacturing engineering projects, including equipment and tooling projects, process improvements, production localization, and capital investments; coordinate internal resources and external suppliers through implementation and startup
Monitor and analyze manufacturing performance using KPIs such as safety, quality, delivery, productivity, capacity, OEE, scrap, downtime, and cycle time; identify performance gaps, establish corrective actions, and track results through the daily PDCA process
Partner with Production, Quality, Maintenance, Supply Chain, Engineering, and operators to resolve manufacturing issues, implement corrective actions, and sustain process improvements
Develop and maintain process documentation, including work instructions, process standards, standard work, manufacturing procedures, process flows, and other documentation required to establish and sustain manufacturing processes
Support manufacturing systems and data accuracy, including ERP, MES, BOMs, routings, work centers, production standards, and other manufacturing information
Evaluate and implement new manufacturing technologies, equipment, tooling, and automation that improve quality, productivity, capacity, ergonomics, or cost
