Industrialization Engineer Pile Driving Equipment

Overview : We are looking for a skilled and detail-oriented Industrialization Engineer to join our team, focusing on the industrialization of foundation equipment, specifically pile driving equipment. The role will involve collaborating with external equipment manufacturers to ensure that the design and production processes are optimized for efficiency, quality, and cost. This position is essential for managing the transition of new pile driving equipment from design to production and ensuring that the manufactured equipment meets our operational and quality standards.

Key Responsibilities :

Equipment Sourcing and Vendor Collaboration : Work closely with external manufacturers to ensure the design, production, and delivery of pile driving equipment align with our project requirements, timelines, and quality standards.

Industrialization Strategy : Develop and implement industrialization strategies for pile driving equipment, ensuring the efficient transition from prototype to mass production while meeting cost, quality, and lead-time objectives.

Manufacturing Process Optimization : Collaborate with external manufacturers to improve production processes and ensure manufacturability, identifying opportunities for cost reductions, process improvements, and risk mitigation.

Design for Manufacturability : Provide input during the design phase to ensure that equipment is designed with manufacturability in mind, including simplifying assembly and ensuring that designs are robust for mass production.

Supply Chain and Logistics Coordination : Work with procurement, logistics, and project management teams to ensure that the right materials, components, and production schedules are in place to support the manufacturing of pile driving equipment.

Quality Assurance and Compliance : Ensure that external manufacturers adhere to quality standards, regulatory requirements, and specifications for the pile driving equipment. Conduct regular reviews and audits to verify quality control processes.

Problem-Solving and Issue Resolution : Address and resolve any manufacturing or design issues that arise during the industrialization process, working with both internal teams and external suppliers to find practical solutions.

Testing and Validation : Oversee factory acceptance tests (FAT), ensure that equipment meets performance criteria, and collaborate with manufacturers to address any issues identified during testing.

Cost Control and Budget Management : Work with external manufacturers to manage production costs and ensure that the equipment is produced within budget, finding cost-effective solutions without compromising quality.

Cross-functional Collaboration : Collaborate with engineering, project management, and manufacturing teams to ensure smooth coordination and alignment throughout the industrialization process.

Qualifications :

Bachelors degree in Mechanical Engineering, Industrial Engineering, or a related field.

Minimum of 10 years of experience in industrialization or manufacturing engineering, with a focus on heavy machinery, foundation equipment, or similar industries.

In-depth knowledge of pile driving or similar machines / equipment and foundation engineering processes.

Experience working with external suppliers and manufacturers, managing the industrialization of complex machinery.

Strong understanding of production processes, quality control, and manufacturing standards.

Ability to analyze designs for manufacturability and suggest improvements for production efficiency and cost savings.

Excellent project management and organizational skills, with the ability to manage multiple priorities and timelines.

Strong communication and interpersonal skills, able to effectively collaborate with both internal teams and external suppliers.

Experience with industrialization tools and methodologies, such as value stream mapping, Lean manufacturing, and Six Sigma.

Familiarity with the regulatory and safety standards associated with manufacturing and heavy machinery.

Preferred Skills :

Experience with automation and advanced manufacturing technologies.

Experience in heavy and complex machinery manufacturing.

Familiarity with the foundation and piling equipment industry.

Knowledge of quality management systems (e.g., ISO 9001) and lean principles.
