Process Engineer (Gastonia)

Full-time

Ingenium Talent

Process Engineer (Operations & Continuous Improvement)

We’re looking for a Process Engineer to take ownership of process improvement across our manufacturing operations. This is a highly visible role where you’ll have the freedom to shape processes, build structure, and drive meaningful change across the plant .

You will serve as the subject matter expert (SME) for process improvement, working cross-functionally with all departments to improve safety, efficiency, and performance. This role sits on the leadership team and reports directly to the VP of Operations , offering strong growth potential .

What You’ll Do

  • Own and drive process improvement initiatives across the entire plant
  • Partner with production, maintenance, safety, and leadership teams to identify inefficiencies and implement solutions
  • Develop, standardize, and improve workflows, SOPs, and operating procedures
  • Lead projects from idea through implementation, with a focus on sustainable results
  • Use data, KPIs, and team input to continuously improve safety, quality, and productivity
  • Act as the go-to process expert for the facility
  • Help build and refine systems, tools, and processes— making the role your own

What We’re Looking For

  • Bachelor’s degree in Engineering (Process, Chemical, Mechanical, or similar)
  • 3+ years of experience in process engineering or manufacturing operations
  • Experience driving process improvement initiatives (Lean, Six Sigma, or similar)
  • Strong ability to work across teams and influence change
  • Comfortable in a hands-on, plant-based environment

What Makes This Role Different

  • High ownership: You’ll have the autonomy to shape how processes are built and improved
  • Leadership exposure: Direct visibility to and partnership with the VP of Operations
  • Broad impact: Work across all departments, not siloed into one function
  • Growth potential: Opportunity to expand scope and grow into larger leadership roles

Work Environment

  • Fully onsite in a manufacturing facility
  • Hands-on role with active time on the plant floor
