Industrial Engineer

Job Summary

We are seeking a detail-oriented and analytical Industrial Engineer to optimize manufacturing processes, improve efficiency, and reduce costs while maintaining quality and safety standards. The ideal candidate will apply industrial engineering principles, with a strong background in precision machining (HMC/VMC), to design workflows, layout facilities, and enhance productivity.

Key Responsibilities (Updated)

· Analyze and improve manufacturing processes to increase productivity, reduce waste, and ensure optimal use of resources.

· Conduct Time and Motion Studies, and Machining Time Calculation to establish accurate production standards and eliminate non-value-added time.

o This includes precise calculation of cycle times for machining operations by applying knowledge of cutting tools & cutting parameters (feed, speed, depth of cut).

· Develop and implement standards for jigs and fixtures developments for new jobs to ensure repeatability, quality, and efficient setup.

· Develop and implement Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) and work instructions, particularly for job setup on HMC/VMC machines.

· Design efficient plant/facility layouts, material handling systems, and production schedules.

· Identify and drive continuous improvement initiatives (Lean, Six Sigma, Kaizen).

· Collaborate with cross-functional teams including production, quality, maintenance, and R&D.

· Monitor key performance indicators (KPIs) to track improvements and address variances.

· Lead cost-reduction projects and suggest improvements in resource utilization.

· Ensure compliance with health and safety standards and regulatory requirements.

Qualifications & Requirements (Updated)

· Bachelor’s degree in Industrial Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or a related field.

· 6–10 years of experience in a manufacturing or industrial setup.

· Core Machining Expertise:

o Good knowledge of drawing reading (GD&T) for manufacturing interpretation and process planning.

o Understanding of machining operations (Milling, Turning, Drilling, etc.) and their sequence/feasibility.

o Good knowledge of cutting tools selection and application, as well as optimizing cutting parameters.

o Understanding of job setup on HMC/VMC machines.

o Good knowledge of measuring instruments (e.g., Vernier Calipers, Micrometers, Height Gauges, bore gauges) for in-process and final inspection.

· Proficiency in process mapping tools, CAD software (for layout/design), and ERP systems.

· Knowledge of Lean Manufacturing, Six Sigma, and other process improvement methodologies.

· Strong analytical, problem-solving, and project management skills.

· Excellent communication and teamwork abilities.

Preferred Skills (Unchanged)

· Certification in Lean Six Sigma (Green Belt or higher) is an advantage.

· Experience in automation, robotics, or Industry 4.0 environments.

· Familiarity with simulation tools (e.g., Arena, FlexSim) is a plus.
