Role & responsibilities

1. Industrial Engineering & Plant CAPEX Management

Plant Layout Design: Optimize existing and design new macro/micro plant layouts using lean principles to ensure seamless material flow, safety, and space utilization.

CAPEX Execution: Define, evaluate, and justify budget requirements for capacity expansion, machinery procurement, and infrastructure upgrades. Take ownership of CAPEX projects from vendor selection to final commissioning.

Capacity Planning: Conduct time-and-motion studies, line balancing, and cycle time analysis to eliminate bottlenecks and optimize resource deployment.

2. Machining, Assembly & Process Improvement

Process Engineering: Define standard operating procedures (SOPs), routing sheets, and control plans for both precision machining operations and complex assembly lines.

Continuous Improvement: Lead Kaizen, 5S, and Six Sigma initiatives to drive down cycle times, minimize manufacturing waste (Muda), and reduce overall cost-of-goods-sold (COGS).

New Product Introduction (NPI):



Partner with the R&D;/Design teams to ensure Design for Manufacturing (DFM) and Design for Assembly (DFA) principles are embedded early in the production lifecycle.

3. Tooling, Jigs & Fixtures Engineering

Tooling Optimization: Evaluate, select, and deploy high-performance cutting tools and workholding systems for CNC, VMC, or conventional machining setups.

Jigs & Fixtures Application: Conceptualize, review, and implement robust jigs, fixtures, and error-proofing (Poka-Yoke) mechanisms to assure repeatable assembly quality and operator safety.

Vendor Management: Collaborate with tool rooms and external suppliers for the fabrication, trial run, and validation of production tooling.

Preferred candidate profile

Technical Software: Proficiency in CAD tools (AutoCAD, SolidWorks, or Creo) for layout planning and fixture review. Knowledge of ERP systems (SAP/Oracle) is preferred.

Core Knowledge: Solid command over machining parameters, GD&T; (
