Requirements

Degree or diploma in industrial/mechanical engineering, process engineering, or equivalent hands-on experience in manufacturing process improvement.
Experience with SOP writing and document control in a regulated manufacturing environment.
Comfortable working with production data — spreadsheets at minimum; BI/analytics tools a plus.
Experience commissioning new equipment or production lines is a strong asset.
Comfortable estimating production costs (labour, run rate, waste) well enough to give Commercial a credible early read.
Able to work cross-functionally with floor leadership and Commercial/packaging teams without formal authority over them.

Responsibilities

Analyze production data (throughput, downtime, yield, changeover time) to identify improvement opportunities across cells and shifts.
Write, revise, and maintain SOPs and work instructions for production equipment and processes.
Lead process improvement projects from problem definition through implementation and validation.
Own onboarding of new equipment and production lines — commissioning, operator training materials, initial SOPs.
Partner with Maintenance to root-cause recurring equipment failures and design out chronic issues.
Support capacity planning by modeling how staffing, equipment, and shift structure changes affect output.
Support new product and packaging development: work with the packaging specialist to confirm new formats and materials run reliably on existing equipment before launch, flagging changes needed to tooling, SOPs, or line setup.
Estimate production cost and throughput impact of proposed new products/packaging alongside Commercial, prior to launch commitment — labour, changeover time, run rate, scrap/waste expectations.
Run and document trial/pilot runs for new products, translating results into go/no-go input for Commercial and the Production Manager.
Track and report improvement initiatives and new product development status to the Production Manager.
