MEX Manufacturing Engineer

Description

Summary: The Manufacturing Engineer supports planning, configuration, and modification of manufacturing processes, assisting in daily operational supervision and contributing to production standards. Highlights: 1. Execute and maintain manufacturing safety, quality, and delivery standards 2. Lead initial root-cause analysis for downtime or scrap issues 3. Manage assigned portions of capital projects Summary *The Manufacturing Engineer will* ***support*** *the planning, configuration, and modification of manufacturing processes,* ***assisting*** *in daily operational supervision and* ***contributing*** *to the maintenance of production standards within our industrial facilities.* *Activities* * *Process Ownership: Execute and maintain manufacturing safety, quality, and delivery standards within assigned production cells. Identify waste (muda) and propose actionable solutions to the Level 2 Engineer to improve the value stream.* * *Operational Reliability: Ensure the functionality of error\-proofing (poka\-yoke) devices and fixtures. Coordinate routine tooling repairs and replenishment, resolving basic manufacturability issues independently before escalating to senior staff.* * *Technical Documentation: Author and update process flows, PFMEAs, and standard operating instructions (SOPs). Analyze line balancing and workflows to provide data\-driven recommendations for eliminating downtime.* * *Standards Compliance: Maintain labor content and product cost standards by applying established assembly methods and ergonomic designs. Validate that production areas adhere to standardized work and visual factory requirements.* * *Continuous Improvement Execution: Implement Lean Manufacturing and Six Sigma tasks as part of larger department strategies. Draft engineering change documentation (ECN) and provide technical support for cost estimation.* * *Problem Solving: Lead the initial root\-cause analysis (e.g., 5 Whys) for downtime or scrap issues in equipment and tooling. Initiate immediate containment actions to prevent non\-conformities in products or processes.* * *Project Support: Manage assigned portions of capital projects, such as equipment installation or supplier follow\-ups, ensuring deadlines and technical specs are met under general supervision.* + *Education: Bachelor’s Degree in Engineering (Mechanical, Industrial, Electrical, or related field).* + *Experience: 1\+ years of experience in manufacturing processes .* + *Integrated Management Systems: Foundational knowledge of ISO 9001, 14001, and 45001 standards.* + *Technical Software: Proficiency in CAD software (AutoCAD or SolidWorks) for layout modifications and advanced MS Office (specifically Excel for data analysis and reporting).* + *Core Tools: Familiarity with the development and maintenance of PFMEAs, Control Plans, and Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs).* + *Analytical Thinking: Ability to identify floor\-level deviations and propose data\-driven solutions to stabilize processes.* + *Sense of Urgency: Capacity to perform effectively in a fast\-paced environment governed by strict deadlines and production targets.* + *Assertive Communication: Ability to respond effectively to inquiries from internal customers and external stakeholders.* + *Proactivity \& Problem Solving: Demonstrated ability to independently develop and implement solutions for routine issues before escalating to the next hierarchical level.* * *Language: Ability to conduct technical conversations and prepare documentation in English.* * *Preferred Qualifications (Desirable)* + *Lean Methodologies: Lean Manufacturing knowledge or Six Sigma Green Belt certification.* + *Industry Expertise: Specific experience in the electrical sector*
