Process Engineer

Plans, directs and coordinates manufacturing processes in Denison facility. Develops, evaluates and improves manufacturing methods, using knowledge of product design, materials and parts, fabrication processes, tooling and production equipment capabilities, assembly methods and quality control standards. Analyzes and plans work force utilization, space requirements, workflow and designs layout of equipment and workspace for maximum efficiency. Estimates production times, staffing requirements and related costs.

Applies statistical methods to estimate future manufacturing requirements.

• (20%) Ensures new products, or revisions to existing products, are introduced into production in a timely and cost effective manner and that all production or quality related issues are debugged prior to SOP.
• (15%) Recommends, plans, designs and implements methods, tooling and equipment to improve operational performance and quality, while ensuring that products are produced at the lowest possible cost.
• (15%) Carries out the detailed analysis of all production faults to determine root causes, preventative and corrective actions and to methodically eliminate faults using modern problem solving techniques.
• (10%) Ensures working methods and appropriate process documentation are in place for all equipment and operations in the factory and that they are efficient and safe.
• (10%) Assists in the early detection of any deterioration in the performance of machinery, tools and equipment through the use and understanding of SPC.
