PROCESS ENGINEER

They have numerous plants in the US and have a very diversified product line from Aerospace to Tire Cord. This location is Lancaster. Principal Accountabilities: Improving process efficiency, increasing throughput, reducing scrap, and reducing product set-up time Using and support process standards, collecting and analyzing data needed for continuous improvement initiatives across multiple product categories Lead product and process development efforts by running trials and writing reports Support the production staff with process troubleshooting Collaborate effectively within a core engineering team, and across other functional areas Implement programs for monitoring and maintaining the major process inputs including, but not limited to; machinery and tooling, raw materials, processing conditions, process specifications, line set-ups, etc. Lead continuous improvement projects and initiatives Identify sources of process variability through DOE/6-Sigma and implement controls to minimize or eliminate variation Actively manage run specifications to establish and ensure consistency and to optimize throughput Analyze process routings and product information and use this information to optimize throughput across all production lines Suggest changes to product geometry and product performance that may improve process efficiency Support product development by leading activities for trial runs of new products. Support the production staff with process troubleshooting Assist production operators when needed Drive activity needed to manage the life-cycle of products Generate product prints, manufacturing routings, material specifications, and tool design Coordinate with other disciplines to collect and compile all drawings and information needed to fully release new parts to production Manage the life-cycle of parts to production using the engineering control system Support product management by providing information and data as needed Support activities needed to qualify new materials, new suppliers, etc.
