Summary

As part of the talented Integral Advanced Manufacturing Technology team, you will be responsible for leading and supporting continuous improvement initiatives using Lean Six Sigma methodologies to improve safety, quality, delivery, cost, and customer experience. This role applies DMAIC, Lean tools, and data analytics to drive measurable performance gains across operations and supporting functions. The Continuous Improvement Engineer will focus on leading well-scoped improvement projects, facilitating kaizen events, standardizing best practices, and building problem-solving capability within teams—under guidance of senior CI leadership when needed.

Primary Responsibilities Lead well-defined, cross-functional Lean Six Sigma projects using DMAIC to reduce variation, defects, waste, and cycle time. Perform root cause analysis using tools such as 5 Whys, Fishbone, Pareto, Process Mapping, Value Stream Mapping (VSM). Facilitate kaizen events and rapid improvement workshops, including pre-work, execution, and follow-up sustainment. Apply Lean practices such as 5 S, SMED, visual management, standard work, takt/capacity balancing, pull systems. Analyze process performance using appropriate statistical methods (e.g., capability analysis, hypothesis testing, regression, control charts). Support data collection plans, measurement system evaluation (e.g., Gage R&R; where applicable), and data integrity checks.



Collaborate with Operations, Quality, Engineering, Supply Chain, Maintenance, and other functions to remove barriers and drive adoption. Train and coach team members in basic CI tools (yellow/green belt concepts), encouraging a culture of structured problem-solving. Create and update process documentation: SOPs, standard work, control plans, training materials, and visual aids. Establish sustainment mechanisms such as layered audits, KPI tracking, control charts, and process ownership handoffs. Qualifications Bachelor’s degree in engineering (Industrial, Mechanical, Manufacturing, Chemical, Systems) or related technical discipline; or equivalent experience. Lean Six Sigma Black Belt certification (recognized internal program or reputable external body). 2–5 years of experience in operations, engineering, manufacturing, supply chain, quality, or CI (internships/co-ops acceptable). Demonstrated experience applying structured problem-solving and leading improvement work (projects, capstones, internships, prior roles). Familiarity with process capability, SPC, FMEA, DOE, PFMEA/Control Plans, or similar quality tools. Experience facilitating kaizen events and training others in Lean/CI methods. Exposure to ERP/MES systems and data extraction/reporting. Experience training and mentoring LSS principles. #J-18808-Ljbffr
