We are looking for a highly skilled and detail-oriented Process Engineer to join our engineering team. The ideal candidate will be responsible for developing, implementing, and optimizing industrial processes across various manufacturing and production environments. This role requires a strong understanding of engineering principles, data analysis, and continuous improvement methodologies such as Lean and Six Sigma.
As a Process Engineer, you will collaborate with cross-functional teams including production, quality assurance, maintenance, and R&D to ensure efficient and cost-effective operations. You will analyze current processes, identify areas for improvement, and implement changes that enhance productivity, reduce waste, and ensure compliance with safety and environmental regulations.
Key responsibilities include conducting time and motion studies, developing process flow diagrams, and utilizing simulation software to model process changes. You will also be expected to lead root cause analysis efforts for process-related issues and implement corrective actions. Strong communication skills are essential, as you will be required to present findings and recommendations to stakeholders at all levels of the organization.
The successful candidate will have a bachelor’s degree in chemical, mechanical, or industrial engineering, along with experience in a manufacturing or production environment. Familiarity with process control systems, statistical process control (SPC), and quality management systems (QMS) is highly desirable.
This is an excellent opportunity for a motivated engineer to make a significant impact on operational efficiency and product quality. If you are passionate about process improvement and thrive in a dynamic, team-oriented environment, we encourage you to apply.
