• Drive automation, process upgrades, and system enhancements in alignment with company goals.
• Promote knowledge sharing and training across engineering disciplines.
• Support capital expenditure planning, cost models, and ROI analysis.
• Champion a continuous improvement culture across all engineering functions.

Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in Mechanical, Industrial, Process, or related Engineering field (Master's preferred).
• 10–15+ years of engineering experience within manufacturing environments.
• Strong technical expertise across multiple engineering disciplines (process design, systems optimization, automation, facility layout).
• Proven leadership track record of managing, training, and growing engineering teams.
• Experience leading cross-functional initiatives that improved efficiency, cost, or production scalability.
• Excellent problem-solving, analytical, and project management skills.
• Strong communication and leadership presence—capable of influencing both technical staff and executive leadership.

Must-Haves

• 10+ years in high-volume manufacturing engineering.
• Hands-on technical strength plus proven leadership of engineering teams.
• Experience mentoring engineers and elevating team performance.
• Demonstrated success leading process optimization and system improvements across multiple disciplines.

Benefits
