Process Engineer - Torque Tools & Vision Systems

Overview : 

• Bachelor's degree in Manufacturing Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Industrial Engineering, or related discipline.
• Minimum 4+ years of experience in process engineering, manufacturing engineering, or similar manufacturing environments, with hands-on experience working with torque tools. 
• This position is responsible for supporting manufacturing operations through the implementation, validation, sustaining, and troubleshooting of production processes and equipment, with a strong focus on torque tools and vision systems. 
• The Process Engineer will work hands-on within the manufacturing environment to ensure torque requirements are consistently achieved, support the implementation and ongoing performance of torque tooling, and troubleshoot process or equipment issues impacting production. 
• The role will also support vision systems used within manufacturing processes, requiring a practical understanding of how these systems operate and how environmental conditions, particularly changes in lighting, can affect their performance and reliability. 
• The ideal candidate is a hands-on problem solver with strong technical foundations, a high level of curiosity, and a genuine willingness to learn and teach others.
• This individual should be comfortable investigating problems with limited guidance, learning new processes and technologies, and sharing that knowledge across the team. 

Key Responsibilities :

Torque Tools & Process Control 

• Support the implementation and sustaining of torque tools within manufacturing operations. 
• Measure and validate torque to ensure defined process requirements are consistently achieved. 
• Troubleshoot torque tooling and process issues impacting production. 
• Investigate process deviations and identify potential root causes. 
• Support ongoing process reliability and production readiness. 

Vision Systems 

• Support and troubleshoot vision systems used within manufacturing processes. 
• Understand how lighting and other environmental conditions can impact vision system performance. 
• Investigate inconsistent vision results and identify factors affecting system reliability. 
• Support adjustments and improvements required to maintain stable vision processes. 

Equipment Implementation & Production Readiness 

• Support the implementation of new machines, tools, and manufacturing equipment. 
• Identify and troubleshoot issues during equipment implementation and production ramp-up. 
• Investigate equipment failures, including machines stopping mid-process or not operating as intended. 
• Work through technical issues to help bring equipment to production-ready status. 
• Provide ongoing sustaining support once equipment is operational. 

Troubleshooting & Continuous Improvement 

• Troubleshoot manufacturing process and equipment issues directly on the production floor. 
• Analyze problems and independently investigate potential causes and solutions. 
• Support root cause identification and corrective actions. 
• Identify opportunities to improve process reliability and manufacturing performance. 
• Apply Lean Manufacturing principles where appropriate. 

Training & Collaboration 

• Work closely with manufacturing, operations, maintenance, and engineering teams. 
• Communicate effectively in a fast-paced production environment. 
• Learn new processes, equipment, and technologies as manufacturing needs evolve. 
• Share technical knowledge and lessons learned with other team members. 
• Help train and develop others on processes and equipment when needed.

Profile:  

• Strong hands-on manufacturing mindset. 
• Highly curious with a strong desire to understand how and why processes work. 
• Eager to learn new technologies, equipment, and manufacturing processes. 
• Strong troubleshooting and problem-solving capabilities. 
• Able to investigate problems and develop potential solutions with limited guidance. 
• Comfortable working directly with production equipment and manufacturing teams. 
• Willing and able to share knowledge and teach others. 
• Strong communication skills. 
• Able to remain effective in a fast-paced manufacturing environment and under production pressure. 
• Self-motivated and proactive when identifying and resolving problems. 

Must Have:  

• Hands-on experience working with torque tools in a manufacturing environment. 
• Practical understanding of torque processes, including measuring or validating torque against defined requirements. 
• Experience supporting, sustaining, or troubleshooting torque tooling and related manufacturing processes. 
• Working knowledge of manufacturing vision systems and how they operate. 
• Understanding of how lighting and environmental conditions affect vision system performance and reliability. 
• Hands-on manufacturing or process engineering experience. 
• Experience troubleshooting manufacturing equipment and/or production process issues. 
• Strong problem-solving skills and ability to investigate technical issues with limited guidance. 
• Strong willingness and ability to learn new processes and technologies. 
• Strong communication and collaboration skills.  

Good to Have: 

• Process Engineering or Manufacturing Engineering background. 
• Experience within automotive, engine manufacturing, assembly, or similar production environments. 
• Experience supporting the implementation or launch of new manufacturing equipment. 
• Experience with equipment ramp-up and production readiness activities. 
• Lean Manufacturing experience. 
• Continuous improvement experience. 
• Root cause analysis experience. 
• Experience training or transferring technical knowledge to operators, technicians, or other engineers.
