Slate

About Slate
At Slate, we’re building safe, reliable vehicles that people can afford, personalize and love—and doing it here in the USA as part of our commitment to reindustrialization. The spirit of DIY and customization runs throughout every element of a Slate, because people should have control over how their trucks look, feel, and represent them.
| WHO WE ARE LOOKING FOR:
We are seeking an experienced Process Engineer with deep automotive manufacturing expertise to help build and refine world‑class production systems. The ideal candidate brings strong knowledge of assembly processes, tooling, equipment integration, and process optimization within General Assembly or related automotive environments. You will play a critical role in designing, validating, and improving the processes that drive safety, quality, throughput, and cost performance. Beyond technical capability, we’re looking for someone who elevates others, communicates with clarity, and helps shape the culture of a new, fast‑moving manufacturing organization. This is a rare opportunity to build processes from the ground up in a mission‑driven environment.
| WHAT YOU GET TO DO:
Develop, validate, and optimize manufacturing processes within the Slate Production System (SPS).
Lead process development for new and existing products, including workstation design, tooling integration, and ergonomic assessments.
Support New Product Introduction (NPI) by creating process flows, PFMEAs, control plans, standard work, and launch readiness documentation.
Analyze production data to identify bottlenecks, improve cycle times, and enhance process capability and repeatability.
Drive structured root‑cause analysis and implement corrective actions for process‑related issues originating from the plant, field, or suppliers.
Collaborate closely with Engineering, Quality, Production, and Supply Chain to ensure process strategies align with product requirements and build plans.
Support layout development, equipment selection, and material flow improvements to increase throughput and reliability.
Lead or support continuous improvement initiatives focused on safety, error proofing, uptime, and cost reduction.
Develop and maintain process documentation, including work instructions, process maps, and training materials.
Monitor key process KPIs (cycle time, scrap, downtime, OEE) and build dashboards and action plans to drive improvement.
Train and mentor technicians, operators, and engineers on process standards, problem‑solving, and best practices.
| WHAT YOU BRING TO THE TEAM:
Education & Experience
B.S. or M.S. in Mechanical Engineering, Industrial Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, or a related field.
6+ years of process engineering experience in automotive or high‑volume manufacturing.
Proven success supporting General Assembly processes, including equipment launch, commissioning, and production ramp‑up.
Experience in startup, greenfield, or rapid‑scale environments is a plus.
Skills
Strong understanding of assembly processes, tooling, ergonomics, and manufacturing quality systems.
Proficiency with PFMEA, control plans, process capability analysis, and structured problem‑solving methodologies.
Experience with CAD or layout tools (AutoCAD, CATIA, SolidWorks, or similar).
Ability to analyze data and translate insights into actionable improvements.
Strong communication, leadership, and cross‑functional collaboration skills.
Demonstrated ability to deliver sustainable improvements in safety, quality, and cost.
Proficiency with Microsoft Office and engineering documentation tools.
| SALARY RANGE:
The compensation for this position is the range Slate reasonably and in good faith expects to pay for the position taking into account the wide variety of factors that are considered in making compensation decisions, including job-related knowledge; skillset; experience, education and training; certifications; work location; and other relevant business and organizational factors.
Base Pay Range (Annual)
101,173.68 - 126,467.11 - 151,760.53 USD Annual
WHY JOIN TEAM SLATE?
