• Participate in and/or lead Kaizen and continuous improvement events.
• Collaborate with Maintenance and Production to develop:
• Preventive maintenance plans
• Operator daily maintenance checklists
• Supporting technical documentation
• Support errorproofing (PokaYoke) efforts; gain exposure to PLC concepts and control logic.
• Perform time studies to ensure standard times and costs are accurate within the SAP MRP system.
• Assist in the development and improvement of new products, processes, and manufacturing systems.
• Support Production in developing and maintaining Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) and training operators, team leads, supervisors, and managers.
• Assist with the design of fixtures, jigs, and tooling using SolidWorks to improve safety, quality, and efficiency.
• Support the Quality team with root cause analysis, corrective actions, and scrap reduction initiatives.
• Provide technical support using Microsoft Excel, SolidWorks, and other engineering tools.
• Maintain a professional, collaborative, and safetyfocused work environment.
• Complete additional engineering projects as assigned.

Qualifications

• High school diploma or equivalent.
• Currently enrolled in an accredited engineering program (Manufacturing, Mechanical, Industrial, or related field).
• Demonstrated application of engineering fundamentals and problemsolving techniques.
• Strong interpersonal and communication skills with experience working in crossfunctional teams.
• Proficiency in creating technical documentation using Microsoft Excel, Word, PowerPoint, and related tools.
• Exposure to CAD software (SolidWorks preferred) is a plus.
• Interest in manufacturing, continuous improvement, automation, and handson engineering work.
