Job Title: Advanced Manufacturing Engineering Manager

Job Description

This role provides day-to-day administrative and technical leadership for a team of professional manufacturing engineers and technicians within the manufacturing engineering and program launch organization.

This position plays a critical role in benchmarking and standardizing manufacturing processes, supporting new business and program launches, and ensuring compliance with divisional specifications, safety standards, and customer requirements.

Responsibilities

Provide first-level daily leadership to a team of manufacturing engineers and technicians, ensuring projects are delivered on time, within scope, and in line with divisional standards.
Benchmark manufacturing processes with other sites and implement plans to close performance gaps and standardize best practices.
Manage and lead capital expenditure (capex) requirements for the plant, ensuring local budgets align with divisional requirements and financial targets.

Work closely with purchasing to ensure all equipment and spare parts meet divisional specifications, safety standards, and business needs.
Ensure all systems related to manufacturing engineering are current, effective, and aligned with organizational requirements and business objectives.
Maintain core process compliance for key site processes such as hardening, welding, assembly, and other critical operations.
Lead business process excellence initiatives to improve systems, processes, and overall operational performance.
Consolidate all OGS (operational and general services) budgets and track each area for compliance, cost control, and continuous improvement.
Provide a consolidated plant-level view of demand and capacity for a five-year horizon, ensuring clear visibility of actual versus target and defining improvement actions where needed.
Compare customer data to internal standards and processes, managing exceptions and ensuring alignment with customer expectations.
Respond to divisional requirements for capacity analysis, investment and capex needs, and other ad hoc engineering or operational requests.
Collaborate with Supply Chain and Commercial teams to ensure Sales, Inventory and Operations Planning (SIOP) and Master Production Scheduling (MPS) are effectively executed for capacity management.
Lead the facilities maintenance team to support plant needs and ensure alignment with industrialization and manufacturing strategies.
Lead the implementation of industrial solutions to improve productivity, efficiency, and performance metrics (including pp2 and related KPIs).
Support new business acquisition (NBA) by providing accurate process cost per part, investment estimates, and tooling cost requirements.
Establish standard processes and cycle times at Start of Production (SOP), ensuring processes meet target performance and quality requirements at launch.
Deliver all manufacturing systems (MS) deliverables at SOP, including operator work instructions, PFMEAs, stage drawings, PPM targets, and related documentation.
Lead process-related Continuous Improvement Management System (CIMS) projects, driving structured problem solving and sustainable improvements.
Provide input into Value Analysis/Value Engineering (VA/VE) activities to reduce cost and improve product and process value.
Support and lead problem-solving activities, using structured methodologies to address root causes and prevent recurrence.
Actively encourage all engineers to identify, propose, and implement improvement opportunities, fostering a culture of continuous improvement.
Manage the engineering team to ensure all work follows divisional processes, procedures, and standards, and that documentation and compliance requirements are met.
Develop and support a diverse and inclusive engineering team aligned with the organizations values and philosophy.
Motivate the team by setting challenging yet achievable goals, providing feedback, and recognizing performance.
Communicate business strategy and regularly update the team on progress, priorities, and the roadmap to operational excellence.
Create a culture of engagement where all associates have the tools and resources they need to perform effectively and contribute ideas for improvement.
Lead plant-level NVH (Noise, Vibration, and Harshness) activities, including vehicle correlation, rig test limits, and ongoing monitoring.
Ensure plant-level ECU (Electronic Control Unit) software related to assembly and test production meets internal and customer requirements.
Ensure prototype parts are produced on time and to specification to support current and future programs and launches.
Provide launch support for automotive programs, ensuring manufacturing readiness and robust process capability.
Perform other related duties as assigned to support manufacturing engineering, program launch, and plant performance.
