  • 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.
