Job Description

"Do you enjoy detailing the intricate workings of a process? Obsessing over how transactions, dependencies, and communication work together to build a system? We are looking for someone to bring these traits to build our process mapping of digital transformation."

The Senior Industrial Engineer will take charge of mapping the Packing processes and material flows – all adjacent data, inputs/outputs, and system dependencies. Will drive the overall industrial engineering topics related to the implementation of process changes, new products, and new technologies. The determination of process impacts, updates to product work descriptions and routings. Collecting and maintaining equipment. Will also handle the following:

  • Drive continues improvement projects for process and support area projects.

  • Feed process set up into the process engineering team for collaborative approach to introductions.

  • Create procedures and visual aid as well as improving the standards and structure for these documents.

  • Own the management of change for engineering – including deviations, trials, and permanent changes.

  • Create and update reports and metrics related to new product (novelty) performance.

  • Multi-functional and cross-site collaboration.
