Resumen del Puesto: Responsable de identificar, evaluar y liderar oportunidades de automatización para mejorar la productividad, calidad y seguridad en procesos de manufactura metal-mecánica. Puntos Destacados: 1. Liderar proyectos de automatización desde el concepto hasta la validación. 2. Colaborar con equipos de producción, calidad y mantenimiento. 3. Enfoque en la mejora continua y la innovación. Descripción y detalle de las actividades Responsible for identifying, evaluating, and leading automation opportunities to improve productivity, quality, and safety in metal\-mechanical manufacturing processes, including manual assembly, riveting, welding, and grinding. This role requires a strong understanding of end\-to\-end automation processes, acting as a technical liaison between operations and automation providers, ensuring effective implementation without necessarily being responsible for detailed design. * Analyze current manufacturing processes (manual assembly, riveting, welding, grinding) to identify automation opportunities. * Design and develop automated systems, fixtures, and tooling to improve efficiency and repeatability. * Lead automation projects from concept through design, procurement, installation, and validation (FAT/SAT). * Collaborate with production, quality, and maintenance teams to ensure successful implementation of automated solutions. * Develop and maintain process documentation, including PFMEA, work instructions, and control plans. * Program or troubleshoot PLCs, robots, and automated equipment (if applicable). * Support continuous improvement initiatives focused on cycle time reduction, ergonomics, and cost savings. * Evaluate ROI for automation projects and prepare business cases. * Ensure compliance with safety standards and regulations in all automation implementations. * Provide technical training to operators and maintenance personnel. * Monitor and improve process performance through data analysis. * Support new product introductions (NPI) ensuring manufacturability and automation readiness. Experiencia y requisitos * Bachelor’s degree in Mechatronics, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or related field * 3–5\+ years of experience in automation within a manufacturing environment (preferably metal\-mechanical industry) * Experience working with assembly lines and manual processes improvement * Experience in project implementation (automation or capital equipment) * Experience with automation technologies (robots, PLCs, sensors, vision systems) * Knowledge of fixture design and tooling for metal\-mechanical processes * Understanding of welding processes (MIG, TIG, spot welding) and riveting systems * Familiarity with industrial safety standards (e.g., risk assessments, machine guarding) * CAD software proficiency (SolidWorks, AutoCAD, or similar) * Experience with cycle time analysis and line balancing * Basic knowledge of electrical and mechanical systems * Data analysis skills (Excel, Minitab, or similar tools) * Project management and execution * Continuous improvement mindset (Lean Manufacturing, Six Sigma). * Technical leadership and cross\-functional collaboration * Results\-driven with focus on efficiency and quality * Adaptability and innovation * Communication skills (technical and operational levels) Beneficios * Beneficios de acuerdo a la LFT **Número de vacantes** 1 **Área** Ingeniería **Contrato** Permanente **Modalidad** Presencial **Turno** Diurno **Jornada** Tiempo Completo **Horario*** Lunes a viernes * Tiempo completo **Estudios** Carrera con título profesional **Inglés** Hablado: Avanzado, Escrito: Avanzado **Disponibilidad p. viajar** No
