Process Engineer II:

Led by Lead Process Engineer, this position will be responsible for managing the Process Engineering related activities improving our Safety, Quality, Delivery and Cost metrics with sustainment and improvement of various manufacturing processes focusing in EPOX. Responsible for transforming molding processes to the world-class level through process engineering in a fast paced, hands-on environment.

As a Process Engineer II you will:

Main function is sustainment/improvement activities related to Process Engineering. This primarily includes leading and/or actively participating in COQ(Quality) problem solving projects with Epox Processes. Actively involved in failure analysis and fatigue testing for molded products.

Overseeing research and development of new manufacturing equipment/software, processes, policies, standard operating procedures and work instructions.

Improve manufacturing processes through review of all engineering deliverables for technical accuracy and adherence to engineering standards and project schedules.

Support and improve JDE/QMS/MES or any other future data collection system for continuously improving our business intelligence reporting and data analytics.

Establish critical characteristics for all processes and systems for monitoring those variables.

Develop and conduct process audits in association with Quality and molding departments.

Maintain department quality and performance metrics.

Review and write reports related to ongoing projects. Assist in the selection and installation of new equipment. Prepare and deliver Process Engineering-related presentations as required.

Possess an excellent understanding of thermoset polymers, from macroscopic to microscopic levels to assist in new product development, feasibility studies and failure analysis

Methodical approach for problem solving using Designed of Experiment, Gage R&R trials, A/B testing, and statistical analysis to drive sustainment and improvement efforts.

Basic project leadership, including, but not limited to scope, schedule, cost, risk, resource, and change management.

Establish, track and manage key performance metrics for project success.
