Senior Industrial Engineer

5+ years in a low-rate, high-mix manufacturing or supply-chain role building complex electro-mechanical assemblies, with heavy reliance on data

Experience managing large capex budgets — specifying, sourcing, and commissioning manufacturing / test equipment for heavy complex assemblies

Proven line/facility design: value stream mapping, continuous/one-piece flow, and workstation design

Deep material-flow expertise: pull systems, Kanban, min/max, part presentation, lineside racking and packaging

Experience modeling operations in production simulation software (Siemens Plant Simulation / Process Simulation)

Demonstrated end-to-end ownership of a value chain, coordinating internal and external parties to hit on-time, on-quality deliveries

In this role, you will be responsible for designing and optimizing the manufacturing operations behind these vehicles inside a large-scale R&D environment where the line, the product, and the processes are all maturing at once.

You'll take a data-driven approach to designing production lines and workstation layouts — from prototype and low-rate build through full-rate production — and own the metrics that keep them healthy.

This is holistic ownership in a fast-paced, resource-limited setting, working shoulder-to-shoulder with Engineering, Supply Chain, Quality, and Business Operations to get complex undersea hardware built and shipped to spec.

If you are someone who thrives on bringing order to a rapidly evolving R&D-to-production floor, this role is for you.

Design production lines and workstation layouts for undersea vehicle build — from R&D/low-rate through full-rate — using Value Stream Mapping, line balancing, and material-flow (pull/Kanban) methods

Specify, justify, and deploy capital equipment and tooling — define requirements for large-scale assembly, handling, and test equipment; own the business case and capex justification; and manage vendor selection, build, install, and qualification through to production readiness
