Just as importantly, you'll help build a culture of continuous improvement by engaging the people closest to the process and turning their ideas into sustainable solutions.

What We’re Looking For:

• Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related technical discipline preferred
• Strong hands-on understanding of mechanical systems, automation, and industrial manufacturing equipment
• Proven troubleshooting and root cause analysis experience with the ability to drive sustainable corrective actions
• Experience managing capital and expense projects from concept and justification through installation, training, startup, and handoff
• Experience designing or improving tooling, fixtures, equipment, and manufacturing layouts
• Familiarity with TPM, predictive maintenance, equipment reliability, and continuous improvement methodologies
