About the role
Lead manufacturing and industrialization activities for New Product Introductions (NPI) from prototype to high-volume production. Translate product design into scalable manufacturing workflows, consult on Design for Manufacturability (DFM), and partner with internal teams and external suppliers to achieve volume output across sites.
Responsibilities
- Manufacturing Process Development: Develop and document the detailed manufacturing process, workstation definition, work content, line balancing, and takt time, translating the team’s manufacturing strategy into executable production plans.
- Capacity & Scale Planning: Build the capacity models and scaling approach for each product, deciding how the process ramps from low-volume builds to serialized production across sites, then validate the plan against real line performance.
- Production Line Build & Ramp: Stand up production lines at contract manufacturers and lead ramp-up from low-volume builds to serialized production, maintaining presence on the factory floor until OEE targets are met.
- Tooling, Fixturing & Automation: Specify and validate tooling, fixturing, and automation/robotics appropriate to the volume and product, and confirm they perform on the line.
- Process Analysis & Optimization: Use simulation, process flow analysis, and ergonomics to identify bottlenecks and drive yield improvement, cost reduction, and throughput gains.
- CM Execution & Qualification: Partner day-to-day with CM engineering teams to qualify processes against defined standards and ensure consistent, repeatable output across lines and sites.
- Design-for-Manufacturability Feedback: Work with the product design team to flag manufacturability risks early and feed line-level constraints back into design before high-volume commitment.
- Issue Resolution: Lead the resolution of production issues on the floor, partnering with Quality and Reliability to separate design defects from process/line inefficiencies and restore stability.
Qualifications
- Bachelor's degree in Industrial Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or other STEM field
- 6+ years of manufacturing or manufacturing engineering experience
- Experience with process improvement techniques such as Kaizen, Lean Manufacturing or Six Sigma
- 5+ years of experience managing large-scale contract manufacturer (CM) relationships
- Experience defining manufacturing procedures, standards, or process packages
