Job Description :
We are seeking a highly capable engineer with a background in Electrical, Controls, Manufacturing, Process Design, or Mechanical Design to support the Integrated Solutions business unit, focused on custom, engineer-to-order (ETO) production environments. This role bridges product design and manufacturing execution, driving optimized material flow, process design, visual management, and advanced manufacturing integration.
The ideal candidate brings a strong engineering foundation with a systems-thinking approach to designing scalable, efficient, and repeatable production processes for highly customized products. This position plays a key role in enabling operational excellence through lean manufacturing, digital/visual factory design, and deployment of new manufacturing technologies.
Key Responsibilities:
Process & Flow Design

• Design and optimize end-to-end manufacturing processes for custom ETO products, including layout, work sequencing, and material flow.
• Develop scalable production models that balance flexibility and efficiency in low-to-medium volume, high-mix environments.
• Drive line design, workstation definition, and assembly methodologies aligned with engineering intent.

Material Flow & Visual Factory

• Establish best-in-class material presentation, kitting strategies, and point-of-use delivery systems.
• Implement visual management systems including production control boards, standard work, and factory-wide visual standards.
• Partner with supply chain and operations to ensure alignment between material availability and production flow.

Lean Manufacturing & Continuous Improvement

• Lead lean initiatives (5S, standard work, value stream mapping, waste elimination) tailored to ETO complexity.
• Identify and execute opportunities to improve throughput, reduce lead time, and increase productivity.
• Utilize data-driven methods to sustain continuous improvement.

Technology & Automation Integration

• Evaluate, design, and deploy new manufacturing technologies including automation, digital tools, and smart factory systems.
• Support integration of engineering design outputs (CAD, BOMs, routings) into manufacturing execution systems.
• Drive innovation in tooling, fixtures, and assembly aids to improve quality and ergonomics.

Cross-Functional Engineering Support

• Collaborate with design engineering to ensure manufacturability (DFM/DFA) of custom solutions.
• Serve as a technical interface between engineering, operations, and supply chain teams.
• Support new product introductions (NPI) and configuration-driven production setups.

Quality & Standardization

• Define process controls and quality checks aligned with product and regulatory requirements.
• Develop standardized work instructions and documentation for repeatable execution.

Required/ Minimum Qualifications :

• Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or related field.
• 5-10 years of experience in manufacturing engineering, process design, or production engineering, preferably in ETO or high-mix environments.
• Strong understanding of manufacturing process design, material flow, and factory layout.
• Experience with CAD tools, ERP/MRP systems, and engineering-to-manufacturing integration.
• Working knowledge of Lean Manufacturing principles and application.
  • Certifications: Six Sigma Black Belt or Lean Manufacturing certification is a plus

Additional / Preferred Qualifications:
• Problem-Solving: Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with the ability to make data-driven decisions
