Senior Manager Manufacturing & Industrial Engineering

Job Summary: The Senior Manager, Manufacturing & Industrial Engineering leads the Manufacturing Engineering and Industrial Engineering functions responsible for converting product engineering intent into safe, repeatable, production-ready manufacturing systems. The role owns the engineering processes that translate engineering bills of material (eBOMs) into manufacturing bills of material (mBOMs), routings, manufacturing methods, tooling requirements, standard work, and work instructions. The position also leads plant and value-stream layout development, capacity modeling, manufacturing simulation, equipment requirements, equipment capacity analysis, labor and workstation planning, and production-system design for new and expanding operations. This leader partners with Product Engineering, Operations, Quality, Supply Chain, Material Flow, Maintenance, Facilities, Strategic Capital Projects, Safety, and Continuous Improvement. Manufacturing & Industrial Engineering designs, industrializes, launches, and technically governs the manufacturing system. The Continuous Improvement organization owns structured improvement within established plants after processes have transitioned to sustained operations. Minimum Qualifications: (Education, Experience, Knowledge, and Skills): Bachelor's degree in Manufacturing Engineering, Industrial Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or a related engineering discipline required; master's degree preferred. 6+ years of progressive experience in manufacturing engineering, industrial engineering, manufacturing operations, or a related technical field, including leadership of engineering teams. Demonstrated experience translating product designs and eBOMs into mBOMs, routings, manufacturing methods, standard work, and production documentation. Strong experience with plant layout, value-stream design, capacity analysis, equipment planning, production flow, labor modeling, workstation design, and line balancing. Experience using manufacturing simulation, analytical modeling, or digital engineering tools to evaluate production scenarios, constraints, equipment utilization, staffing, and facility requirements. Experience supporting new product introduction, facility expansion, new production lines, major equipment installations, or greenfield manufacturing launches. Experience in complex, high-mix, engineered-to-order, or configure-to-order manufacturing environments preferred. Working knowledge of Design for Manufacturability, Design for Assembly, ergonomics, process capability, production readiness, and manufacturing change control. Strong leadership, communication, project management, problem-solving, and cross-functional decision-making skills. Ability to establish common engineering standards across multiple plants while maintaining clear accountability for execution at the site and value-stream levels. Job Duties and Responsibilities: Leadership and Engineering Strategy Lead, develop, and align the Manufacturing Engineering and Industrial Engineering teams across the manufacturing organization. Establish common engineering standards, methods, governance, tools, and deliverables for manufacturing system design and product industrialization. Develop the manufacturing and industrial engineering roadmap required to support volume growth, product complexity, additional shifts, facility expansion, and new plant launches. Define decision rights, technical ownership, and handoffs among Product Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, Industrial Engineering, Operations, Continuous Improvement, and supporting functions. Build a scalable engineering capability that creates reusable standards and reduces plant-specific or one-off manufacturing solutions. Manufacturing Engineering Own the process for translating engineering designs and eBOMs into accurate mBOMs, routings, operations, work centers, and executable manufacturing processes. Define manufacturing methods, process sequences, standard work, work instructio…
