Team Lead Industrial Engineer

Key Responsibilities:

• Lead Industrial Engineering & Process Planning for SMT, PCBA, machining, and device assembly lines; drive Lean, operational excellence, and continuous improvement initiatives.
• Enable manufacturing through design and deployment of tools, jigs, fixtures, facility setups, and optimized workstation/ergonomic solutions.
• Own equipment lifecycle—planning, capex, procurement, commissioning, and productivity/quality improvement aligned with specifications.
• Drive seamless NPI, process introductions, and change management to achieve RFT at optimal cost.
• Plan and execute capacity expansion, factory layout design, and capex programs including brownfield/greenfield setups.
• Manage indirect procurement, tooling vendors, and tool crib operations.
• Lead technical training and mentor industrial/manufacturing engineers through structured development programs.
• Apply strong IE fundamentals—work measurement, line balancing, facility layout, material flow optimization, and process documentation.
• Implement ergonomics programs (NIOSH-aligned), reducing operator fatigue; certified Ergo in Action Green Belt.
• Expertise in controls engineering (PLC, HMI, networks, robotics), equipment upgrades, and MES integration.
• Drive problem-solving and quality improvement using structured CAPA and analytical tools.
• Lead strategic and tactical capacity planning, including throughput optimization, ramp planning, and cross-functional alignment.
