I
NPI & Process Development, DFM & Tolerancing, Quality & Risk Control, Automation & Controls, Logistics & Material Flow, Continuous Improvement
ndustry Background: Experience in high-volume manufacturing within a Tier 1 automotive environment. Tier 1 automotive suppliers operate with tight margins and aggressive schedules, which demands manufacturing and industrial excellence.
Key Responsibilities
- NPI & Process Development: Lead process flow planning, line layout inputs, and workstation design from early concept through high-volume production ramp-up.
- Standardization & Documentation: Create and optimize SOPs, detailed work instructions, process flow diagrams, routings, and launch readiness checklists.
- DFM & Tolerancing: Collaborate with Product Engineering to provide Design for Manufacturability/Assembly (DFM/DFA) feedback and guide GD&T/tolerance stack-up practices.
- Quality & Risk Control: Lead PFMEAs, control plans, APQP/PPAP inputs, process validation trials, and structured root-cause analyses (8D, 5 Why, Fishbone).
- Automation & Controls: Partner with Equipment and Controls teams to deploy and validate tooling, fixtures, error-proofing (Poka-Yoke), sensors, and safety systems.
- Logistics & Material Flow: Integrate Plan for Every Part (PFEP) strategies, sequencing, packaging, and line-side material delivery configurations.
- Continuous Improvement: Troubleshoot shop-floor bottlenecks and optimize cycle times, yield, first-time quality, and OEE using Lean and Six Sigma tools.
Basic Qualifications
- Education: Bachelor’s degree in manufacturing, Mechanical, Industrial, or Production Engineering.
- Experience: 7+ years in manufacturing engineering, industrialization, or production launch.
- Environment: Direct experience in large-scale discrete manufacturing (e.g., automotive, battery, energy, aerospace, or heavy equipment).
