The mission of the Senior Industrialization Engineer - is to play a critical role in process and manufacturing operations, ensuring that new products, technologies, and engineering changes are industrialized in a scalable, stable, and cost-effective manner.
The role leads complex industrialization initiatives and ensures the successful transfer of products into stable serial production. This position demonstrates deep expertise in process related with rubber as raw material(products especially hoses it is a plus), critical process parameters, application requirements, process ranges, and product process interactions, applying modern manufacturing techniques and methodologies to ensure process capability, risk mitigation, and consistent product quality.
Key targets of the role include achieving launch readiness, process capability and stability, operational efficiency, cost competitiveness, and long-term manufacturing sustainability while supporting continuous improvement and global alignment.
Product Industrialization & Process Industrialization:
- Deep expertise in the processes mainly related with rubber as raw material used (Extrusion, braiding, knitting, vulcanizing , crimping and others)
- Manage the industrialization of new products from design through serial production (Rubber products , hydraulic hose or other kind of hose is a plus).
- Act as the technical expert regarding process and product.
- Contribute through manufacturing processes, equipment, tooling, and layouts to ensure capability, safety, quality, and cost targets are met.
- Support design for manufacturability (DFM) and design-for-assembly (DFA) reviews in collaboration with other departments.
Product and Process Improvement:
- Support engineering changes, providing expert guidance to ensure robust industrialization and minimal disruption to production.
- Provide expert input and technical direction to continuous improvement initiatives focused on safety, quality, delivery, and cost in collaboration with other departments.
- Support structured problem-solving activities using Lean, Six Sigma, and quality tools (A3, 8D, DMAIC, SPC, MSA).
- Provide technical expertise to process optimization initiatives such as cycle time reduction, yield improvement, and cost optimization.
- Promote best practices and technical standards to strengthen manufacturing robustness.
Monitoring and Reporting:
- Provide technical overshight of process postlaunch.
- Review performance indicators ensuring technical adequacy and long term process stability.
- Identify, assess, and technically evaluate industrialization risks.
- Provide expert technical support during audits.
Standardization:
- Drive the implementation of standards for products and processes.
- Ensure technical guidelines in collaboration with the Product and process industrialization team.
- Act as a subject matter expert to train and coach engineers.
- Support the implementation of new technologies and ensure proper standardization.
