Job Description

In this position ...

  • You will work cross-functionally with Manufacturing Engineering, Plant MP&L, Production, Supply Chain, Packaging, Industrial Engineering, Ergonomics, Safety, Facilities, Purchasing, suppliers, and equipment integrators to deliver material-flow solutions from early program development through launch and operational handoff.
  • Material Flow Engineering converts a program's product and manufacturing assumptions into a safe, efficient, cost-effective, and plant-executable material-flow system, engineering the people, process, equipment, facilities, space, inventory, data, and automation required to move each part from dock to point of fit and successfully transition the system into production.

Responsibilities

What you will do ...

  • Develop and implement end-to-end material-flow strategies from receiving docks through storage, marketplaces, kitting, sequencing, and production point of fit.
  • Develop and maintain Plan for Every Part (PFEP) data to determine packaging, storage, inventory, replenishment, equipment, and floor-space requirements.
  • Support Cycle Line Layout (CLL) development and validate workstation material presentation and replenishment feasibility.
  • Design marketplaces, sequencing/kitting areas, line-side storage, material routes, and other logistics operating areas.
  • Develop floor-space and capacity analyses and integrate material-flow requirements into plant layouts using tools such as AutoCAD.
  • Define manual and powered material-handling requirements, including PMHVs, forklifts, tuggers, AGVs, AMRs, conveyors, and other automation technologies.
  • Develop material-handling labor requirements, replenishment routes, delivery frequencies, standardized work, and operating concepts.
  • Establish inventory, storage, call/card, and replenishment strategies that support production while minimizing material handling and excess inventory.
  • Analyze pedestrian and material-handling traffic, congestion, safety, and ergonomic risks and develop practical countermeasures.
  • Develop equipment, facility, labor, and investment requirements and evaluate alternatives based on safety, quality, delivery, cost, productivity, and operational flexibility.
  • Use data analysis and simulation, where appropriate, to evaluate capacity, routes, fleet requirements, storage, congestion, and automation opportunities.
  • Lead material-flow deliverables through program milestones, installation, launch, production stabilization, and plant operational handoff.
  • Drive continuous improvement by reducing material touches, travel distance, floor-space requirements, inventory, labor, and material-handling waste.

Qualifications

You'll have...

  • Bachelor's degree in Manufacturing or Industrial Engineering, Supply Chain, Logistics, Operations, or related field or equivalent combination of relevant education and experience.
  • Years of experience in manufacturing, material flow, logistics, industrial engineering, supply chain, or related field.
  • Strong analytical, problem-solving, project-management, and communication skills.
  • Ability to work effectively across manufacturing and engineering organizations and influence without direct authority.

Even better, you may have …

  • Bachelor's degree in Industrial, Manufacturing, Mechanical, or related Engineering discipline.
  • Automotive manufacturing or new-model launch experience.
  • Experience with Value Stream Mapping, PFEP, AutoCAD, Lean material flow, plant layouts, labor analysis, and material-handling equipment.
  • Experience with PMHVs, AGVs, AMRs, ASRS, conveyors, or material-handling automation.
  • Experience with material-flow simulation, data analytics, or Power BI.
  • Experience developing capital requirements, business cases, or economic evaluations.
  • Demonstrated leadership working with cross-functional manufacturing teams.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
