Is comfortable being on the production floor regularly

Understands how materials, labour, equipment, and people interact

Manage order tracking and daily production scheduling

Provide feedback and recommend scheduling or process improvements

Coordinate production sequencing to support delivery commitments

Communicate schedule changes clearly to stakeholders

Simplify processes and reduce firefighting

Engage operators in identifying and solving problems

Use data to support improvement decisions

Provide input into CAPEX planning and asset improvement needs

Identify opportunities to improve reliability, safety, or capacity

Understand equipment condition and long‑term risks

Qualifications & Experience University‑level degree in Manufacturing Engineering or equivalent technical discipline required, including P.Eng. or Six Sigma certification
