Design, implement, and optimize high-volume roll-to-roll automated lines using Lean, Six Sigma, and simulation tools to model, analyze, and improve workflow throughput, cycle times, and labor efficiency.
Design and optimize plant layouts, workcells, and continuous flow material movement strategies to support scale-up and ramp events.
Partner with Controls and Equipment Engineering to implement automation that reduces variation and operator dependence.
Identify and resolve process bottlenecks using root cause analysis, SPC, and other data-driven methodologies.
Lead time studies, line balancing, workflow analysis, and capacity modeling to support lean manufacturing initiatives.
Develop PFMEAs, control plans, standard work instructions, and visual aids to support production consistency.
Champion Kaizen events and train operators/technicians on continuous improvement tools.
Collaborate on NPI (new product introduction) to ensure manufacturability and seamless ramp to production.
