Position Summary

JOB DESCRIPTION
- Vertiv is seeking a Manager / Senior Leader of Manufacturing Process Design to act as the lead architect of our production ecosystems. In this role, you will be responsible for the "Virtual-to-Physical" transition of our Power and Thermal products, serving as the primary bridge between R&D; and the shop floor. By integrating Full-Line Balancing with high-fidelity Discrete Event Simulation (DES), you will ensure that our manufacturing lines are mathematically optimized for maximum efficiency long before the start of production. This role requires a blend of deep industrial engineering expertise, leadership acumen, and advanced data modeling to drive a "Right First Time" general launch strategy.

Responsibilities
- Up-Front Design Integration: Lead the New Product Introduction (NPI) process by collaborating with R&D; at the earliest design stages. Ensure manufacturing constraints, plant capabilities, and automation requirements are integrated into the product DNA before design freeze.
- Synchronized Process Design & Bottleneck Neutralization:



Drive operational excellence through rigorous Yamazumi modeling, ensuring all manufacturing processes are perfectly balanced to Takt time. By neutralizing bottlenecks and bridging disconnected "islands of automation," you will create a seamless, synchronized flow that eliminates process unevenness and waste, minimizing WIP and maximizing plant-wide throughput.
- Data-Driven Simulation (DES): Oversee the translation of Yamazumi work-content data and line-balancing profiles into Discrete Event Simulation models. Capture granular process data—including MTBF, MTTR, and precise step-level cycle times to virtually "stress test" the production environment and validate throughput targets before physical implementation.
- Proactive DFM/DFA Leadership: Direct the execution of rigorous Design for Manufacturing (DFM) and Design for Assembly (DFA) reviews. Act as the final gatekeeper for manufacturability, ide
