SP Industries Inc. is hiring for our team in Pocomoke City, MD and has an immediate opening for a Manufacturing Engineer
. The Manufacturing Engineer is responsible for driving continuous improvement (CI), process engineering, and operational excellence across manufacturing operations. This role leads process optimization initiatives, capital projects, and new product development (NPD) activities while utilizing manufacturing data to identify opportunities for improved productivity, quality, safety, and cost efficiency. The incumbent supports BOM and PIR updates, develops and standardizes manufacturing processes, and partners cross-functionally with Operations, Quality, Production, and Supply Chain to implement sustainable improvements and support business objectives.

RESPONSIBILITIES:

• Support and execute continuous improvement (CI) initiatives using lean manufacturing, ABM, and Six Sigma methodologies to reduce waste, improve productivity, and drive cost savings.
• Develop, evaluate, and standardize manufacturing processes and workflows to improve efficiency, process capability, product quality, and production consistency.
• Support capital projects from planning through implementation, including equipment evaluation, technical specifications, cost analysis, installation, commissioning, and performance validation.
• Contribute to new product development (NPD) by developing manufacturing processes, evaluating production requirements, supporting process trials, and ensuring readiness for production launch.
• Create and maintain accurate Bills of Material (BOMs), Production Information Records (PIRs), routings, and manufacturing system data to support production planning, costing, and process control.
• Collect and analyze manufacturing data, conduct time studies, and evaluate key performance indicators (KPIs) to identify inefficiencies, establish performance baselines, and measure improvement results.
• Participate in process risk assessments, Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA), control plan development, and process validation activities to improve reliability and minimize operational risks.
• Collaborate with Operations, Quality, Supply Chain, and Maintenance to troubleshoot manufacturing challenges, identify root causes, and implement sustainable corrective actions.
• Develop and maintain engineering drawings, equipment specifications, process documentation, and work instructions to support manufacturing changes, standardization, and continuous improvement.
• Assist in evaluating and implementing automation, equipment modifications, and manufacturing technologies to improve safety, quality, capacity, and operational efficiency.
• Track project milestones, document results, and communicate progress, risks, and recommendations to stakeholders to support timely execution and effective implementation.
• Participate in cross-site engineering initiatives to share best practices, exchange technical knowledge, and support the standardization of manufacturing processes across LWGW sites.
