Key Responsibilities:

• Developing Work Measurement Systems and Standards: Conduct simple time studies and identify inefficiencies in workflows and task execution.

• Analyzing Production Material Flow : Analyze material flow efficiency and identify bottlenecks or delays that impact production timelines.

• Conducting Cost Analysis and Optimization: Analyze manufacturing costs by evaluating material waste, labor efficiency, and equipment utilization. Perform detailed cost-benefit analyses to identify opportunities for cost savings and waste reduction.

• Planning Capacity and Optimizing Resources : Perform basic calculations to identify constraints and resource needs for specific tasks or projects.

• Project Support and Leadership: Manage small-scale manufacturing projects, ensuring timelines, budgets, and deliverables are met under supervision.

Key Skills:

• Productivity Improvements: Contribute to process improvements by identifying small inefficiencies and proposing solutions. Collaborate with team members to refine workflows and implement basic productivity tools.

• Data Analysis: Analyze production data to identify trends, inefficiencies, and bottlenecks using tools like Pareto charts and process control charts.

• Workstation Design: Design workstations that improve operator efficiency and reduce fatigue, using ergonomic principles.

• Lean Manufacturing: Implement Lean tools, such as Kaizen and Value Stream Mapping, for localized process improvements.

• Design for Manufacturability & Assembly: Apply DFMA principles to improve product manufacturability and assembly. Analyze designs for material selection, part count reduction, and ease of assembly, while collaborating with cross-functional teams to refine designs.

• Layout Planning: Begin using CAD tools to make minor layout adjustments and visualize workspace modifications. Identify inefficiencies in material flow, workspace design, and potential safety risks, and collaborate with others to refine layouts and improve space utilization.

• Mentorship: Share foundational knowledge with peers and newer hires. Collaborate with others to support mutual learning and contribute to a positive team environment.

• Problem-Solving and Critical Thinking : Analyze production problems using structured methodologies (e.g., 5 Whys, Fishbone diagrams) to identify root causes.

• Knowledge of APQP Tools and Systems: Contribute to the creation and refinement of APQP tools, including Process Flow Diagrams, PFMEA, Control Plans, and Packaging Design. Ensure that packaging supports material flow, product protection, and compliance with APQP requirements.

• Communication and Collaboration Skills: Coordinate with cross-functional teams to align goals and share updates on manufacturing improvements.
