Job Description:

These responsibilities highlight the LMS Process Engineer's crucial role in optimizing material storage and movement, ensuring efficient operations, and supporting continuous improvement efforts within the manufacturing facility.

The role of the LMS Process Engineer encompasses a wide range of responsibilities related to material storage and movement throughout the manufacturing facility. This includes overseeing the integration of material flow from the receiving dock to the shipping dock. The engineer is tasked with evaluating various aspects of material handling, such as receiving, storage, staging, delivery, repackaging, empty container management, floor space utilization, labor allocation, operating expenses, and the design of an optimal layout for material flow.

• Determine the requirements for GSC (Global Supply Chain) indirect labor.
• Design, develop, and procure all material movement and storage equipment, including ASRS (Automated Storage and Retrieval Systems) and AGV/AMR (Automated Guided Vehicles/Autonomous Mobile Robots) automation.
• Develop innovative strategies for material storage and movement, and actively seek opportunities for implementation.
• Integrate the layout of people, manufacturing equipment, and material flow through the creation of a Material Flow Map.
• Conduct analysis of material flow and congestion to identify areas for improvement.
• Participate in Plant Launch Wall Reviews, providing updates on status and countermeasures.
• Collaborate closely with key stakeholders, including CME Execution and Plant Launch Teams.
