Sr. Manufacturing Engineer

as well as a wide range of development prospects. Because we believe that your career path should be as unique as you are.

Supports manufacturing in the resolution of manufacturing issues and provides manufacturing with tools and engineering support to implement new products into production and in the resolution of manufacturing issues. Leads process design functions to determine product flow through the manufacturing cell by use of current engineering and continuous improvement techniques. Establishes resource

and material flow using industrial engineering techniques and internal Company standards. Analyzes various product structures and processes in order to eliminate inefficiencies and reduce manufacturing costs. Performs Design of Experiment (DOE) analysis to determine optimum operating parameters to achieve the most efficient cell. Monitors and controls objectives and costs of assigned project and establishes program time lines. Performs other duties as necessary in support of business objectives. May provide work direction and/or supervision to other staff.

Work requires independent problem solving and decision making with general direction given on project objectives and broad guidance from corporate strategy and goals. Work is complex, difficult in character and requires strong technical and broad business knowledge in addition to program/project management skills. Functioning with full competency/mastery of work area, exercises considerable latitude in determining specific project objectives and approaches to assignment. Decisions often involve substantial risk to the organization with potential for long-lasting results. Primarily involves senior/advanced level work, primarily on large projects and may supervise other staff. Elevation to this level will only occur on a selective case-by-case basis.
