Industrial Engineer

This role is a manufacturing-floor–focused Industrial Engineer responsible for establishing and validating labor standards, routings, and time studies to support accurate costing and continuous improvement. The position partners closely with Finance and Operations in a high-volume production environment.

Responsibilities

• Spend the majority of time on the manufacturing floor observing and evaluating builds.
• Conduct time studies and validate routing times.
• Develop, standardize, and maintain manufacturing routings and labor standards.
• Partner with Finance to build and refine labor and product costs.
• Evaluate manufacturing builds and recommend process improvements.
• Identify and implement Lean / Continuous Improvement opportunities.
• Support electro-mechanical product manufacturing.
• Improve efficiency, accuracy, and consistency in high-volume production lines.

• 3 years of experience in time studies.
• Experience in electro-mechanical environments.
• Job shop or build-type manufacturing experience.
• Exposure to Lean principles.

• Manual assembly or industrial equipment manufacturing experience.
• A degree in a relevant field is preferred but not required.

This is a floor-heavy role with approximately 95–100% of time spent on the manufacturing floor observing teams performing builds and conducting hands-on time studies. Only about 5% of the time is dedicated to reporting, which includes compiling data, documenting findings, and updating routing times. The position is ideal for candidates from plant-based, operations-driven environments. The role focuses on execution rather than consulting, requiring a hands-on, data-driven approach to reset inaccurate routing standards in high-volume production lines.
