Industrial Engineer

Autocar, LLC | Birmingham, AL

At Autocar, LLC, we don't just build trucks, we build purpose-driven solutions that keep essential industries moving. As the only American-owned and operated truck OEM, Autocar has been engineering severe-duty vocational trucks for over a century, delivering industry-leading uptime, customer support, and performance.

Our customers rely on our trucks to tackle the toughest jobs every day, and our commitment to innovation, quality, and the industry's best service is backed by our 24/7 ALWAYS UP® direct factory support team.

We are looking for an Industrial Engineer to join our team and play a key role in optimizing manufacturing operations, driving process improvements, and supporting the production of customized heavy-duty trucks that meet our customers' exact specifications.

What You'll Do

As an Industrial Engineer, you will partner with cross-functional teams across manufacturing, engineering, and sales to improve efficiency, reduce costs, and enhance product quality throughout our production environment.

Key responsibilities include:

  • Analyze and optimize heavy-duty truck assembly processes to improve productivity, reduce waste, and shorten cycle times.
  • Design and implement efficient production layouts, workflows, and workstation configurations using lean manufacturing principles.
  • Conduct time studies, capacity analyses, and process simulations to identify opportunities for operational improvement.
  • Collaborate with production, engineering, and sales teams to support customized truck builds and evolving customer requirements.
  • Develop and maintain standard operating procedures (SOPs) and work instructions to drive consistency, quality, and efficiency.
  • Support the implementation of automation, robotics, ERP systems, and other technology solutions to improve scalability and delivery timelines.
  • Analyze manufacturing data and key performance indicators (KPIs), providing actionable recommendations to leadership.
  • Participate in continuous improvement initiatives utilizing Lean Manufacturing, Six Sigma, Kaizen, and Value Stream Mapping methodologies.
  • Ensure compliance with safety regulations, quality standards, and operational best practices.
  • Assist with cost analysis and budgeting efforts for process improvement projects.

What We're Looking For

Education

  • Bachelor's degree in Industrial Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or a related technical field required.
  • Master's degree and/or professional certifications such as Lean Six Sigma Green Belt or Certified Manufacturing Engineer are preferred.

Experience

  • 1-3 years of industrial engineering experience, preferably within manufacturing, automotive, heavy equipment, or heavy machinery environments.
  • Experience with process optimization, production system design, and lean manufacturing initiatives.
  • Familiarity with ERP systems and process simulation software.
  • Proficiency with Microsoft Office applications.
  • Experience with Autodesk Inventor, SolidWorks Composer, or NX Unigraphics is a plus.

Skills

  • Strong analytical and problem-solving abilities with a data-driven mindset.
  • Experience using process modeling and analysis tools such as AutoCAD, Arena, or Minitab.
  • Effective communication and collaboration skills across multidisciplinary teams.
  • Working knowledge of manufacturing standards, safety regulations, and quality management systems.
  • Interest in automation technologies, data analytics, and continuous improvement practices.

What You’ll Get

  • We offer an attractive compensation and benefits package, to include base salary, incentive bonus opportunities, and benefits including comprehensive medical, dental, vision, and life and AD&D insurance, and short-term and long-term disability.
  • 401(k) with a company match to help you invest in your future.
  • Paid time off (PTO) and company holidays to rest, recharge, and maintain work-life balance.
  • A high-impact role with real ownership.

Location: Birmingham, AL

  • Birmingham is one of the Southeast’s most dynamic and affordable cities, recognized nationally as a growing business hub and an attractive destination for professionals. The area offers a lower cost of living than many major metropolitan markets, a thriving culinary and entertainment scene, and convenient access to lakes, parks, and weekend destinations throughout the region.
  • Enjoy the best of both worlds—our Autocar facility is located just 20 minutes from downtown Birmingham, providing easy access to the city’s amenities while maintaining a convenient commute.
