Specify, procure, qualify, and integrate capital equipment and material handling systems into the production environment.
Partner with Manufacturing Engineering, Quality, Supply Chain, and EHS to align facility design with regulatory, safety, and operational requirements.
Maintain and improve engineering databases (WIPs, routings, BOMs) in NetSuite to support MRP accuracy and production planning.
Develop AutoCAD/Revit facility drawings and maintain up-to-date layouts as operations evolve.
Mentor junior Industrial Engineers and provide technical leadership across the IE team.
Other duties as assigned consistent with the scope of this role.
