Senior Industrial Engineer

Senior Industrial EngineerRequired Skills & Experience: Bachelor's degree in Industrial Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, Systems Engineering, or a related technical discipline required, or equivalent demonstrated experience. 6+ years of industrial engineering experience in a manufacturing environment, including direct ownership of capacity analysis, line balancing, and layout design. Demonstrated success in low-volume, high-complexity, or prototype-to-production environments — industrial engineering applied where the process was still changing, not only where it was mature and stable. Hands-on experience designing plant layouts and workstations, including material flow analysis and point-of-use material presentation. Experience implementing pull systems and material flow on a live production floor. Precision electromechanical assembly, rotating or reciprocating machinery, high-voltage systems, or power generation experience beneficial. Aerospace, defense, medical device, or other regulated high-consequence hardware experience beneficial, including AS9100 or ISO 9001 systems. U.S. Government or DoD program support experience beneficial. Lean Six Sigma Black Belt, APICS CPIM, PMP, or formal ergonomic assessment training beneficial. Ability to work on-site in Cedar Park, TX.Job Description: The Senior Industrial Engineer is responsible for making the KARNO production system measurable and then making it better. This position owns capacity and takt modeling, line balancing and standard work, layout and material flow design, and constraint elimination across core assembly, power module integration, the linear electric motor build, and the subassembly cells that feed them. As Cedar Park becomes the production home of the KARNO Power Module, this position takes the footprint from a set of individually capable work areas to a connected, balanced flow that produces at a published, credible rate — where takt is defined, the constraint is known rather than argued about, work content at each station is measured, material arrives where it is used, and adding rate is a planned move rather than a scramble. This is a hands-on senior individual contributor role on the Manufacturing Engineering team, partnering daily with Production, Quality, Supply Chain, and Design Engineering, with substantial time spent on the floor with the technicians who do the work.
