Remote | Manufacturing & Engineering Workflow Consultant — $75–$120/hour
About The Position
We are sharing a specialised part-time consulting opportunity for professionals experienced in manufacturing engineering, process improvement, mechanical design review, supply chain planning, quality systems, and structured engineering workflow analysis. This role supports current and upcoming remote consulting opportunities focused on structured manufacturing and engineering review, process documentation, quality analysis, supply chain workflow assessment, mechanical documentation, and high-quality project execution. Selected professionals will apply their engineering expertise to review realistic technical scenarios, evaluate process and documentation requirements, prepare structured written outputs, and support accurate, evidence-based engineering workflow tasks.
Requirements
- 3+ years of experience in manufacturing engineering, process engineering, industrial engineering, mechanical design, supply chain planning, quality engineering, product development, or related technical roles.
- Working fluency in at least two areas such as CAD, GD&T, manufacturing processes, Lean/Six Sigma, S&OP, quality systems, FMEA, CAPA, or inspection protocols.
- Familiarity with tools and systems such as SolidWorks, Fusion 360, Creo, NX, CATIA, AutoCAD, Arena, Teamcenter, Windchill, SAP, Oracle, or similar engineering and planning platforms.
- Comfort reading and preparing engineering artifacts such as drawings, BOMs, process flows, SOPs, FMEAs, CAPAs, inspection protocols, supplier scorecards, and planning documentation.
- Strong written communication skills and ability to explain engineering decisions clearly.
- Ability to follow structured instructions and produce evidence-based work.
Nice To Haves
- Experience with machining, injection molding, sheet metal, additive manufacturing, assembly processes, supplier quality, production transfer, or new product introduction workflows.
- Familiarity with Lean, Six Sigma, GD&T, FMEA, CAPA, ISO, FDA, DFM/DFA, S&OP, inventory analysis, or logistics exception handling.
- Experience preparing or reviewing CAD drawings, BOMs, ECOs, SOPs, process maps, inspection protocols, supplier scorecards, or quality records.
- Engineering, quality, supply chain, Lean Six Sigma, or manufacturing certifications are helpful.
- Strong attention to detail in technical documentation-heavy and process-oriented environments.
Responsibilities
- Review engineering scenarios involving process flow documents, SOPs, yield analysis, quality metrics, root cause analysis, Lean/Six Sigma documentation, and process improvement workflows.
- Evaluate process and manufacturing outputs against source materials, defined criteria, quality requirements, and expected technical outcomes.
- Support structured review of FMEA materials, CAPA documentation, non-conformance reports, audit preparation materials, and inspection protocols.
- Identify missing steps, documentation gaps, quality issues, control points, and expected engineering review outcomes.
- Review mechanical and industrial engineering scenarios involving CAD models, 2D drawings, GD&T, BOM maintenance, tolerance analysis, DFM/DFA reviews, and ECO workflows.
- Evaluate engineering drawings and product documentation against specified dimensions, manufacturing requirements, revision controls, and documented standards.
- Support structured review of CAD-related workflows, design packages, BOM structures, ECO documentation, and technical drawings.
- Prepare clear written explanations for engineering decisions based on source materials and verifiable technical criteria.
- Review supply chain scenarios involving demand forecasting, inventory analysis, supplier scorecards, S&OP materials, logistics exceptions, and planning workflows.
- Evaluate planning and execution materials against historical data, service requirements, supplier metrics, operational constraints, and documented targets.
- Support structured review of supply chain artifacts, planning workbooks, logistics documentation, supplier performance materials, and S&OP outputs.
- Maintain accuracy, consistency, and professional judgment across submitted work.
