Description:Role Overview
As a Production Industrial Engineer, you will drive improvements across manufacturing operations by analyzing data, optimizing processes, and leading initiatives that enhance production efficiency, throughput, and cost performance.
You will work at the intersection of production, data, and engineering, partnering across functions to ensure manufacturing systems are designed and operating at peak performance.
Key Responsibilities
• Analyze production data to identify inefficiencies, root causes, and improvement opportunities
• Lead and implement continuous improvement initiatives using Lean principles and Industrial Engineering methods
• Develop and apply discrete event simulation or similar modeling techniques to evaluate production scenarios and optimize system performance
• Support production planning activities including capacity analysis, scheduling, and production rate optimization
• Partner with Manufacturing and Facilities Engineering to support production line design, layout, and workflow optimization
• Establish and monitor performance metrics related to cost, schedule, and throughput
• Collaborate cross-functionally across production, engineering, supply chain, and program teams
• Drive sustainable process improvements and ensure long-term adoption of solutions
• Mentor and provide guidance to junior engineers as needed
• Provide occasional off-shift support to maintain production continuity
Work Environment
• Fast-paced, production-focused environment
• High cross-functional collaboration
• Exposure to advanced manufacturing systems and analytics tools
• Focus on innovation, continuous improvement, and measurable results
