Process Design & Optimization: Design layout sequences and workflows; implement Lean Manufacturing and Six Sigma techniques to reduce waste and cycle times.
Equipment & Automation: Select, set up, and troubleshoot machinery; integrate robotic or automated systems on the assembly line.
Quality & Yield Management: Monitor production metrics (OEE, yield rates, scrap reduction) and implement Root Cause Analysis (RCA) when defects occur.
Standardization: Create Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), work instructions, and safety guidelines for shop floor operators.
Cost Reduction: Identify bottleneck operations and implement engineering changes to minimize raw material and labor expenses.
