This position requires that you must be a US Citizen for consideration and meet all Federal Contractor employee requirements. Nomad GCS does not support the H1B Visa for this position.

Position:
Industrial Engineer III

Division:
Innovative Solutions Group (ISG)
Department:
Manufacturing & Industrial Engineering

Status:
Full-Time

Nomad GCS is currently seeking a Level III Industrial Engineer. Please note the Level III Expectation in red below.

Overview:
Nomad Global Communication Solutions (Nomad GCS) is a leading provider of communication and response products serving a wide variety of customers. Our purpose is to be the solution when every minute matters. We seek a candidate that is self-inspired to learn and demonstrates a high degree of customer service while positively contributing to our team.

The Industrial Engineers (IEs) at Nomad GCS are responsible for designing, developing, and optimizing scalable production systems that support Nomad's primary vehicle/product assembly operations. This includes the development of main vehicle assembly lines, creation of feeder cells that support those lines, and the continuous improvement of material flow, labor utilization, and production efficiency. IEs focus on system-level production architecture - ensuring that the right work happens at the right station, at the right time, with the right resources.

Being able to learn on-the-fly is required. All solutions must adhere to or exceed Nomad's standards of safety, efficiency, quality, and scalability.

Career Growth:
Advancement is based on measurable improvements to throughput, cost, scalability, and production stability. Industrial Engineers progress through five levels based on demonstrated capability in:
  • Assembly line design
  • Feeder cell integration
  • Capacity modeling
  • Production flow architecture
  • Lean implementation
  • Leadership and organizational impact
Organizational Structure:
Nomad Engineering is organized into Teams and Disciplines within the Innovative Solutions Division.
  • Teams:
  • Team 1 - Standards and Modularity:
    Builds and maintains engineering standards, modules, templates, and rules enabling repeatability and scale.
  • Team 2 - Design:
    Executes project-level engineering using established standards and less complex custom configurations.
  • Team 3 - Advanced:
    Develops novel systems and resolves first-of-kind engineering challenges.
  • Team 4 - Manufacturing & Industrial Engineering:
    Ensures manufacturability, safety, engineering intent, efficiency, and continuous improvement throughout Production.
  • Disciplines:
  • Mechanical Engineering
  • Electrical Engineering
  • IT Engineering
  • Human Factors Engineering
  • Software Engineering
  • Manufacturing (MFE) & Industrial Engineering (IE) (where this role is located)
Industrial Engineers operate primarily within Manufacturing & Industrial Engineering (Team
4), collaborating closely with:
  • ISG - Standards & Modularity (Team
    1)
  • Production Leadership
  • Supply Chain
  • Quality Assurance
  • Program Management
Team 4 contains both IEs and MFEs. These roles are differentiated in that the IEs are to focus on how we build it efficiently and at scale, whereas the MFEs are to focus on how we build the product correctly and repeatably.

Basic Knowledge Desired - All Levels:
  • Industrial engineering principles (time studies, work measurement, line balancing, takt time analysis).
  • Lean manufacturing tools (VSM, 5S, Kaizen, SMED, standard work).
  • Facility layout and material flow optimization.
  • Capacity planning and production modeling.
  • ERP/MRP systems.
  • Data analysis (Excel required, others encouraged).
  • Production economics and cost analysis.
  • Understanding of fabrication, welding, mechanical assembly processes.
  • Strong cross-functional communication skills.
  • Demonstrated alignment with Nomad Core Values.
Core Responsibilities - All Levels:
  • Design and implement scalable vehicle/product assembly lines.
  • Develop feeder cells to support main line flow.
  • Perform line balancing based on takt time and demand forecasts.
  • Conduct time studies and labor utilization analysis.
  • Assist in developing standard work documentation.
  • Optimize material presentation and flow to point-of-use.
  • Analyze and improve production capacity constraints.
  • Support layout redesigns to improve throughput and safety.
  • Drive continuous improvement initiatives.
  • Analyze production data to identify bottlenecks.
  • Support new product introductions with line integration planning.
  • Collaborate with Manufacturing Engineers to ensure manufacturable designs.
  • Travel as needed.
  • Perform additional duties as assigned.
Level Expectations:

Industrial Engineer
l - Entry / Developing
  • Assist in time studies and line balance analysis.
  • Participate in layout planning and workstation design.
  • Learn takt-based production planning.
  • Support feeder cell documentation and setup.
  • Exposure to multiple vehicle full-build cycles (at least
    5).
  • Bachelor's degree in Industrial Engineering or related field OR 0-2 years' experience.
Primary Focus:
Learning production flow fundamentals

Progression Signal:
Accurately collects and analyzes production data and supports…
