The Manufacturing Engineer will be responsible for designing, developing and implementing manufacturing processes, equipment and systems to enable optimized production efficiency while maintaining focus on cost efficient solutions, sustaining high quality product results, and enabling design for manufacturability in new designs. Provide guidance and support for solving complex technical problems that arise in manufacturing production. Coordinate the orderly transition and installation of new processes and/or methods in accordance with product specifications with a Lean Manufacturing approach.
Roles & Responsibilities
· Coordinate manufacturing launch for new or revised products
· Create BOMs and routings for newly released Part Numbers and revise BOMs and routings when processes are updated and/or Lean Manufacturing efforts create increased efficiency of the manufacturing steps
· Design and develop manufacturing processes, equipment, and systems at the plant level to improve process capability, quality and manufacturing readiness
· Design, develop, test, source and cost-justify various tools, machinery and equipment for new or improved manufacturing methods
· Identify and develop collaborative solutions for issues within the production workflow such as level loading, production bottlenecks, machine reliability, general production related work flow waste
· Make key decisions, resolve issues and oversee projects to shape manufacturing success
· Prepare or direct the preparation of Model facility and/or equipment layout and detail drawings in CAD Engineering software
· Providing technical guidance for manufacturing activities
· Recommend and implement improvements to production processes, methods and controls
· Support the Quoting process and Order Management process by supplying pertinent information as required
· Write procedures and reports
COMMUNICATION
· Maintains effective communications with all key stakeholders both internal and where appropriate external
· Supervisors & Managers should clearly communicate expectations, roles and responsibilities to their reports
· Collaborate with Engineering department in order to ensure all items (upper level and sub levels) of BOM is entered into Windchill.
· Collaborate with Purchasing, Category Management and Manufacturing to simulate and assign the manufacturing COGS to parts/product, ensuring accuracy before finalizing.
· Collaborate with global cross-functional teams to develop, innovate and implement manufacturing technology best practices.
Experience & Education
REQUIRED
· Bachelors Degree in Engineering with Manufacturing Engineering preferred from an Accredited University
PREFERRED
· Minimum 3 years experience in a manufacturing environment
· Lean Manufacturing experience, or Lean Green Belt/Black Belt certification
· Oil & Gas manufacturing experience
