Industrial Engineer

This position focuses on leading assembly line balancing, process optimization, and launch support for new product introductions within a vehicle manufacturing environment. The candidate will drive standardized work, eliminate throughput bottlenecks using pre-determined time standards (MTM, MOST, MODAPTS) and 3D CAD tools, and collaborate across cross-functional engineering and operations teams to achieve launch targets.

• Develop standardized work and balance operator workloads to align with takt time for new product introductions using pre-determined time standards (MTM, MOST, MODAPTS).
• Determine build sequences by evaluating product models using 3D CAD.
• Lead line balance workshops with cross-functional teams including operations, product engineering, safety, quality, and workstation designers.
• Refine line balancing by accounting for assembly sequences, ergonomic guidelines, and facility constraints.
• Direct throughput and bottleneck analyses to identify performance improvements and remove production constraints.
• Guide Station Design, Manufacturing Engineering, and Quality teams on implementing design and process enhancements.
• Validate PFMEA and technical process documentation for compliance and launch readiness.
• Participate in continuous improvement (Kaizen) initiatives and lean manufacturing events.
• Monitor and report core launch metrics, including cycle time adherence, first-time quality, downtime, and overall throughput.
• Provide hands-on support for pilot builds, tool tryouts, and process validation during pre-production phases.
