• Provide manufacturing engineering supervision, ensuring that manufacturing cells are properly supported.
• Work effectively as a team member to ensure operational metrics are achieved and any remedial action is actively pursued.
• Maintain current updates on manufacturing engineering related tasks.
• Represent manufacturing engineering at appropriate meetings and events.
• Design or specify any equipment, tooling, or racking required to support manufacturing.
• Ensure relevant Engineering Change Notices (ECNs) are properly reviewed within assigned cells or option groups and support all aspects of production implementation.
• Ensure default locators are assigned to all parts within assigned manufacturing cells.
• Create shop floor instructions and hot sheets, and train the necessary personnel on those standards.
• Update and maintain layouts (plant & cell layouts, inventory, housekeeping, emergency, & security maps).
• Specify and facilitate capital and equipment upgrades, installations, or modifications.
• Implement and facilitate lean manufacturing initiatives (5S, value stream mapping, setup reduction, etc.).
• Promote an environment of continuous improvement and teamwork.
• Lead or participate in SWAT team meetings, ensuring necessary actions are taken by cross-functional groups to resolve issues.
• Conduct process observations to ensure assigned time standards are fair and consistent.
• Maintain resource plans to ensure production activities are properly resourced.
• Validate routings, submit, and implement routing change requests to process planning as appropriate.
• Conduct contract reviews prior to contract start to ensure production preparedness, as outlined in the Manufacturing Readiness Assessment work instruction.
• Participate in Material Review Board (MRB) meetings to assist with the disposition of non-conforming materials.
• Initiate Engineering Change Requests (ECRs) where appropriate.
• Support process planning and production engineering.
• Participate in internal and supplier certifications and audits, as required.

• Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Electronics Engineering, or a related field (required).
• Proven experience in electrical engineering within a manufacturing or production environment, with supervisory or leadership experience preferred.
• Strong knowledge of lean manufacturing principles and continuous improvement methodologies (e.g., 5S, Kaizen, value stream mapping).
• Demonstrated problem-solving skills , particularly in diagnosing and resolving electrical system or equipment issues, with the ability to lead cross-functional teams.
• Proficient in electrical CAD software (e.g., AutoCAD Electrical, EPLAN), circuit design, and documentation of electrical control systems.
• Excellent communication , interpersonal, and technical training skills to support cross-functional collaboration and on-floor implementation.
• Familiarity with Engineering Change Notices (ECNs) , Engineering Change Requests (ECRs) , and Manufacturing Readiness Assessments specific to electrical systems or components.
