Process Engineer

Description

• Disposition of non-conforming material and elevate preventive action initiatives internally and with suppliers.
• Apply technical knowledge to innovate, design and develop processes, tooling, assembly fixtures and procedures.
• Implement Lean manufacturing principles. Reduce waste, create material flow, 5S initiatives, lead continuous improvement projects, etc.
• Work closely with engineering and other cross-functional teams to provide relevant input to deploy new products for manufacturability.
• Analyze and optimize production processes to ensure safety, quality, maximize yield, and improve capacity in cost-effective means.
• Lead implementation of Engineering Changes to ensure a smooth transition between revisions.
• Monitor and audit manufacturing processes to ensure product specifications and standards are achieved. Do it right the first-time mentality.
• Work with production staff to identify opportunities for design changes for existing products that would enable better manufacturability and cost reduction.
• Review current state process, identify bottlenecks and implement changes to create flow.
• Lead quality function deployment activities to ensure Poka yokes are institutionalized in high-risk processes in order to eliminate the risk of poor quality (PFMEA, Control Plans, etc.).
• Study and identify resource needs, ergonomic solutions, tooling, and fixtures.
• Utilize Lean methodologies to improve process layouts, material flow, and 8 waste reductions.
• Create and maintain manufacturing instructions, method sheets or standard work, and routings for associated processes.

Requirements

• Strong use of common work tools (word, excel, access, etc.)
• Great project management skills and ability to influence changes
• Persuasive, motivational, and persistent

• Formal LEAN Manufacturing training or certification is an asset
• Excellent critical thinking skills, diplomacy, and tact
• Must be able to break down complex issues into workable pieces
• Ability to read and interpret basic mechanical and electrical drawings
• Good understanding of BOMs, manufacturability, process design, process validation, assembly methods, design reviews and cost reduction methodologies.
• Must possess process engineering skills (process development/improvement, troubleshooting, data analysis, constraint analysis, flow optimization, root cause analysis, etc)
• Demonstrated working experience with Lean manufacturing methodologies
• Capable of identifying critical process parameters and applying sensible control to eliminate or reduce risks

Benefits

• Educational assistance, leadership development programs, and recognition programs
• Competitive and performance-based compensation packages and bonus plans
