Our client is seeking a Process Architect to take ownership of analyzing, designing, and optimizing manufacturing processes that improve flow, reduce variability, and strengthen overall operational capability.

  • Conduct detailed process mapping, FMEA, DFM assessments, and other engineering analyses to identify waste, risk, bottlenecks, and improvement opportunities
  • Design and refine manufacturing processes to improve flow, repeatability, throughput, and quality using disciplined engineering methods
  • Lead structured root-cause investigations and corrective actions using 9-Step Problem Solving, FMEA updates, and data-driven approaches
  • Drive process standards and documentation, ensuring clarity and compliance across assigned value streams
  • Support new product development by evaluating manufacturability, defining process requirements, and ensuring smooth integration into production
  • Partner with cross-functional teams to ensure processes align with design intent, quality expectations, safety requirements, and operational capabilities
  • Identify, justify, and support implementation of new equipment, tools, and technologies that enhance process performance
  • Oversee process validation, capability studies, and measurement system reviews to ensure stable and capable processes
  • Prepare and deliver technical reports, recommendations, and presentations to leadership and technical teams

Minimum Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s Degree in Industrial, Manufacturing, Mechanical, Electrical, or a related engineering discipline
  • 8+ years of process engineering, manufacturing engineering, or related technical experience
  • Strong analytical ability with experience in data modeling, root cause analysis, and structured engineering tools
  • Hands-on experience developing, optimizing, or scaling manufacturing processes
  • Demonstrated success leading process-focused initiatives such as NPI integration, process redesign, or major CI improvements
  • Proven ability to manage projects, define process requirements, and deliver results from concept through execution
  • Strong communication skills and ability to work collaboratively across functions

Preferred Qualifications

  • Project leadership experience in a manufacturing or engineering environment
  • Certifications such as Six Sigma, Red X, Lean, or equivalent
  • Demonstrated success leading CI or Lean-based process improvement events
  • Experience supporting cross-functional teams at all levels of a manufacturing organization
