In this role, you will make an impact in the following ways:
Support safe and compliant manufacturing processes by assisting with project execution that integrates safety requirements, product specifications, and business objectives from design through implementation.
Improve manufacturing equipment and processes by applying core manufacturing principles to enhance reliability, throughput, ergonomics, and cost performance.
Contribute to process standardization through the development and documentation of manufacturing standards, work instructions, and best practices.
Apply continuous improvement tools (e.g., Lean, Kaizen, standard work, waste reduction) to identify inefficiencies and drive measurable improvements in quality and productivity.
Collaborate with cross-functional partners (Operations, Quality, Maintenance, Supply Chain) and external resources to execute assigned project tasks effectively.
Support project deliverables by analyzing data, troubleshooting issues, and assisting with root-cause investigations to ensure sustainable solutions.
Strengthen manufacturing readiness by helping validate processes, equipment capability, and methods to meet production and customer requirements.
