We are growing fast and looking for a highly motivated Process Engineer with a strong lean manufacturing background.
Reporting to the Director of Manufacturing; the Process Engineer will develop, implement, and optimize production processes. He/she will have a large playfield to make great things happen. You will have the freedom to define processes, create material flow or pull systems, and lead continuous improvement projects.
This individual will lead operational projects including the development of metrics to drive the right behavior, leadership coaching and training on new tool/process usage, data analysis and proposal of new business solutions.
He/she must be able to create momentum and excitement to implement changes on the shop floor, have entrepreneurial thinking, be a self-starter and should be able to identify areas for improvement and implement them in a timely fashion.
Responsibilities
Review current state process, identify bottlenecks and implement changes to create flow.
Study and identify resource needs, ergonomic solutions, tooling, and fixtures.
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, and quality, maximize yield, and improve capacity in cost-effective means.
Work with production staff to identify opportunities for design changes for existing products that would enable better manufacturability and cost reduction.
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).
Utilize Lean methodologies to improve process layouts, material flow, and 8 waste reduction.
Monitor and audit manufacturing processes to ensure product specifications and standards are achieved. Do it right the first-time mentality.
Create and maintain manufacturing instructions, method sheets or standard work, and routings for associated processes.
Apply technical knowledge to innovate, design and develop processes, tooling, assembly fixtures and procedures.
