Industrial Engineer III
About The Position
Nomad Global Communication Solutions (Nomad GCS) is seeking a Level III Industrial Engineer within its Innovative Solutions Group (ISG), Manufacturing & Industrial Engineering Department. Industrial Engineers design, develop, and optimize scalable production systems for vehicle and product assembly operations. This role focuses on system-level production architecture, including main assembly lines, feeder cells, material flow, labor utilization, and production efficiency. Solutions must meet or exceed Nomad’s standards for safety, efficiency, quality, and scalability. The role requires learning on the fly and contributing positively to the team with strong customer service. The Level III Industrial Engineer leads development of full vehicle assembly lines, architects feeder-cell integration strategies, redesigns facility layouts to improve flow, and identifies and eliminates production bottlenecks. The role develops scalable production models, conducts cost-per-unit analysis and labor optimization modeling, and mentors Level I–II Industrial Engineers. Its primary focus is system-level production architecture, with success demonstrated by designing lines that operate predictably at planned takt with reduced disruption. The position is part of Manufacturing & Industrial Engineering (Team 4), which focuses on efficient, scalable production. The Industrial Engineer collaborates with Standards & Modularity, Production Leadership, Supply Chain, Quality Assurance, Program Management, and Manufacturing Engineers. The role requires travel as needed and may involve work in office, shop, vehicle, and exterior environments. US citizenship and satisfaction of Federal Contractor employee requirements are required; Nomad GCS does not support H-1B visas for this position.
Requirements
- 5–8 years of industrial or manufacturing engineering experience.
- Bachelor of Science in Industrial Engineering or a related field; equivalent education and experience may be considered.
- Experience with production system design.
- Experience conducting time studies and line balancing.
- Proficiency in software for mathematical and physical modeling as required for the position.
- Experience with ERP/MRP systems.
- Valid driver’s license in good standing.
- Must be a US citizen and meet all Federal Contractor employee requirements.
- Knowledge of industrial engineering principles, including time studies, work measurement, line balancing, and takt-time analysis.
- Knowledge of lean manufacturing tools, including value-stream mapping, 5S, Kaizen, SMED, and standard work.
- Knowledge of facility layout, material-flow optimization, capacity planning, production modeling, production economics, and cost analysis.
- Understanding of fabrication, welding, and mechanical assembly processes.
- Strong cross-functional communication skills and demonstrated alignment with Nomad Core Values.
Nice To Haves
