Industrial Engineer

What you will do:

• Conduct time studies, work sampling, and Standard Work development to optimize labor utilization and cycle times.
• Analyze manufacturing processes for both assembly lines and the machine shop; identify bottlenecks and implement corrective actions.
• Develop and update process routings, work instructions, and manufacturing documentation.
• Design, modify, and implement production line layouts for machining, winding, assembly, testing, and packaging areas.
• Improve plant material flow, ergonomics, and space utilization.
• Support layout changes for new equipment, new product introductions, and capacity scaling.
• Lead and participate in Kaizen events, continuous improvement workshops, and root‐cause analysis activities.
• Champion Lean principles such as 5S, visual management, waste elimination (TIMWOOD), and error-proofing (poka-yoke).
• Establish and maintain 5S standards in production and machining areas.
• Create and maintain Oracle manufacturing data, including: routings & work centers, standard cycle & setup times, part number attributes & costing data
• Troubleshoot Oracle discrepancies and support accurate system performance for production planning and costing.
• Support Manufacturing Engineers with New Product releases by developing initial process flows, capacity models, and manufacturability feedback.
• Assist with the specification, justification, and implementation of new equipment, tooling, and fixturing in both assembly and machining operations.
• Monitor OEE (Overall Equipment Effectiveness), scrap, rework, throughput, and productivity metrics.
• Provide analytical reports and recommendations to improve performance.
