Industrial Engineer

About This Role

The Industrial Engineer II role is an experienced position performing routine to moderately complex engineering functions on assigned projects or sub-projects of a general nature by applying standard mathematical, physical science, and/or engineering technologies. This role involves coordinating work measurement systems, analyzing production operations, and recommending improvements to enhance productivity and reduce flow time.

Responsibilities

• Coordinate and administer the work measurement system in manufacturing and inspection departments, including the development and application of standard time values using time study, standard time data, and predetermined time systems
• Assist in the project management/continuous improvements of new and current projects, under technical guidance of higher-level engineers or departmental management
• Conduct/coordinate the analysis of production and inspection operations to determine optimum methods and sequence of performing necessary work considering tools, materials, specifications, equipment, and environment
• Prepare evaluation reports, analyze data, and make recommendations for and initiate improvements for product, test equipment, procedures and manufacturing or operating processes that improve productivity and reduce flow time
• Develop manufacturing layout proposals for rearrangements of departments to optimize the utilization of resources and facilities considering workloads, processes, product flow, and relationship with other operating groups
• Develop base cost data (e.g., direct labor and direct material requirements) for product cost estimates
• Estimate set-up times, operating times, and flowtimes for production needs
• Support audits to anticipate, identify, and correct problems and to measure production levels and trends
• Perform special studies in all areas of plant operations and recommend preventive corrective actions (e.g., time studies, energy studies)

Requirements

• Ability to travel up to 10% of the time
• Bachelor of Science degree in Engineering or Physics from an ABET accredited program
• 2+ years of relevant experience in engineering, analytical, or related technical activities
• United States Citizenship
• Regular and reliable attendance is an essential function of this job
• Ability to obtain and maintain a U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) security clearance (some positions require additional DOE designations)

Nice to have:

• Demonstrates application of design, development, evaluation, and quality control techniques to routine through engineering projects
• Demonstrates application of analyzing engineering designs and specifications to achieve efficient and reliable manufacturing or acceptance processes
