Industrial Engineer, Avionics
About The Position
Castelion is seeking a highly skilled Industrial Engineer to design and scale the manufacturing systems behind our avionics hardware, including PCBAs, wire harnesses, electrical integration, and test. You will own the systems-level view of production: modeling capacity, balancing operations, optimizing material flow, defining standard work, and building the metrics that tell us how the factory is performing. This role sits at the intersection of manufacturing engineering and program execution, translating production data into decisions about equipment, staffing, tooling, and factory layout that enable us to scale from development builds to high-rate production.
Requirements
- Bachelor's degree in industrial engineering or a related engineering field
- 3+ years of experience in a manufacturing or production environment performing capacity, process flow, or production analysis
Nice To Haves
- Experience with electronics, avionics, PCBA, wire harness, electromechanical, or aerospace manufacturing
- Experience with capacity modeling, line balancing, factory layouts, OEE, takt time, and production planning
- Experience scaling manufacturing processes from development into higher-volume production
Responsibilities
- Model production capacity and takt time across PCBA, harness, electrical integration, and test operations to inform staffing, equipment, and layout decisions
- Develop process flows, value stream maps, and factory layouts to optimize material flow and production efficiency
- Conduct time studies and line balancing analyses to establish standard work and identify bottlenecks
- Partner with design and manufacturing engineering to provide DFM/DFA feedback for production at scale
- Develop and maintain OEE, throughput, cycle time, utilization, and yield metrics to drive manufacturing improvements
- Perform capacity studies and define labor, equipment, tooling, and floor-space requirements
- Develop material flow, kitting, and lineside inventory strategies to reduce non value-added work
- Support make/buy and automation decisions using capacity, labor, and cost models
- Work cross-functionally with design, manufacturing, quality, supply chain, and program teams to meet production rate, schedule, and cost objective.
Benefits
- Generous benefits package
