Full job description

Job Description

  • Production and process optimization: Analyze manufacturing workflows, equipment, labor utilization, cycle time, line balancing, and constraints. Identify bottlenecks and implement improvements that increase throughput, efficiency, and manufacturing stability.
  • Layout and material flow: Develop and maintain efficient production layouts, material movement, storage, and point-of-use presentation. Recommend layout updates that improve flow, ergonomics, safety, and capacity.
  • Documentation and performance reporting: Create and maintain manufacturing documentation, engineering specifications, layouts, standards, and project records. Track and present relevant KPIs, project status, risks, results, and recommended next actions to management.
  • Ensure TLA production requirements and maximum labor efficiency are achieved at the expected quality and cost.
  • Reduce recurring defects and production disruptions through effective root-cause analysis and sustainable corrective actions.
  • Deliver qualified, documented, production-ready tooling and processes that support current products, changes, and new product introductions.
  • Identify and implement measurable cost-reduction and continuous-improvement opportunities while maintaining safety and product quality

Skills and Requirements

  • Demonstrated experience with manufacturing process optimization, capacity analysis, line balancing, work measurement, material flow, and production layout.
  • Experience with smart/electronic torque screwdrivers and screw-tightening process control on mechanical assemblies, including torque and angle setup, fastening sequence verification, real-time torque data logging, and traceability for critical fastener joints.
  • Ability to collect, analyze, and interpret production data and translate findings into practical engineering solutions.
  • Strong project management, technical documentation, communication, and cross-functional collaboration skills.
  • 3D modelling for tooling and additive manufacturing experience
  • Experience using CAD (2D and 3D) tools for mechanical design and production layout development.
