• Utilize CAD software to design, modify, and implement physical workstation upgrades, conveyor re-routes, mechanical lifting assists, and custom manufacturing jigs.
• Define technical specifications, source equipment, manage localized project budgets, and coordinate third-party trades during plant installations.
• Ensure all engineered fixes undergo pre-start health and safety reviews and operator validation checks prior to standard production line integration.
• Maintain precise milestone scheduling across all active GTA site interventions, reporting structural project updates back to senior operations leadership.

Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Industrial Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, or a closely related technical discipline.
