Process Engineer

Key Responsibilities

• Process Development & Optimization: Develop, review, and improve manufacturing processes for precision sheet metal fabrication, stamping, machining, and electrical cabinet assembly.
• Production Support: Provide technical support to production teams to resolve process-related issues, troubleshoot manufacturing problems, and minimize production downtime.
• Continuous Improvement: Identify opportunities to improve productivity, reduce cycle time, minimize material wastage, and optimize manufacturing costs using Lean Manufacturing, 5S, Kaizen, or other improvement methodologies.
• New Product Introduction (NPI): Support new product development, prototype builds, process validation, and production ramp-up to ensure smooth transfer from design to mass production.
• Process Documentation: Prepare and maintain process flow charts, work instructions, standard operating procedures (SOPs), process parameters, and other relevant manufacturing documents.
• Root Cause Analysis: Investigate production defects, process deviations, and recurring manufacturing issues, and implement corrective and preventive actions.
• Tooling & Equipment Improvement: Work with relevant departments to improve jigs, fixtures, tooling, and equipment to enhance process capability, product quality, and operational efficiency.
• Quality & Compliance: Work closely with the Quality Department to ensure manufacturing processes meet customer specifications, quality standards, and applicable ISO requirements.
• Cross-functional Collaboration: Coordinate with Production, Quality, Design, and Purchasing teams to implement engineering changes and resolve manufacturing-related issues.
• Performance Monitoring: Analyze production data, scrap rates, cycle times, and process efficiency, and recommend improvement actions based on findings.
• Customer & Audit Support: Assist in technical investigations, process reviews, customer audits, and internal or external audits when required.

Requirements

• Diploma or Bachelor's Degree in Mechanical Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, Industrial Engineering, or a related field.
• Relevant experience in process engineering within a manufacturing environment, preferably in precision sheet metal fabrication, metal stamping, CNC machining, or electrical cabinet assembly.
• Knowledge of manufacturing processes, production planning, process validation, and continuous improvement techniques.
• Experience in troubleshooting manufacturing issues and conducting root cause analysis.
• Familiarity with engineering drawings, technical specifications, and manufacturing documentation.
• Knowledge of Lean Manufacturing, 5S, Kaizen, and quality tools such as 5 Why, Fishbone Diagram, and FMEA will be an advantage.
• Good analytical, problem-solving, communication, and coordination skills.
• Able to work independently and collaborate effectively with cross-functional teams.
