As an Industrial Engineer, you will be responsible for improving and optimizing manufacturing processes. Your expertise in engineering principles, ergonomics, and continuous improvement will be essential in enhancing the efficiency, safety, and quality of operations.
Apply G.D.T. (Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing) and SPC (Statistical Process Control) principles to ensure that design and production processes meet specified tolerances and quality standards.
Utilize CAD programs to design and analyze layouts, workflows, and process flows for manufacturing systems.
Perform motion analysis and conduct ergonomics studies to enhance worker efficiency, reduce strain, and improve overall safety in production processes.
Implement Mistake Proofing and Poke-Yoke techniques to prevent errors in manufacturing processes, ensuring high-quality output and reducing defect rates.
Develop and maintain Control Plans, F.M.E.A. (Failure Mode and Effects Analysis), and APQP (Advanced Product Quality Planning) to ensure that processes and products meet all industry and company standards.
Collaborate with cross-functional teams to identify areas for improvement, particularly focusing on workflow optimization, process standardization, and lean manufacturing principles.
Assist with the development and management of project timelines, utilizing software tools such as MS Project, Excel, and PowerPoint to track progress and present findings to management.
Proficient in Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (G.D.T.) and Statistical Process Control (SPC).
Strong understanding of CAD programs (e.g., AutoCAD, SolidWorks) for process and layout design.
Experience with Motion Analysis and Ergonomics to optimize workstations and workflow.
Expertise in Mistake Proofing (Poka-Yoke) methodologies to ensure error-free production.
Familiarity with Control Plans, F.M.E.A., and APQP or similar systems for quality control and continuous improvement.
Solid computer skills, including proficiency in MS Project, Excel, and PowerPoint for reporting, data analysis, and project management.
Engineering Degree/Diploma or equivalent experience in industrial engineering or a related field.
A minimum of 5 years of experience in manufacturing, with a focus on process improvement, continuous improvement, and quality assurance.
Hands-on experience with ergonomic studies and worker safety improvements.
Experience working in Lean Manufacturing environments and familiarity with Six Sigma methodologies.
Knowledge of robotics and automation in production processes.
Strong problem-solving abilities and a keen attention to detail.
Ability to work effectively in a team environment, collaborating with production, engineering, and quality teams.
Excellent communication skills, both written and verbal, for presenting ideas and reports to stakeholders.
