Opportunity
BASIC FUNCTION
Under the supervision of the General Supvr - Slip & Glaze, Monterrey Plant III, this position is responsible for providing manufacturing engineering ownership for ceramic materials and shop-floor processes, including raw-material variability, slip and glaze preparation, casting, drying and firing performance. The role exercises daily process control, data-driven decision-making, inventory governance for raw materials, slip and glaze, and implementation of standard work and engineering controls to stabilize performance, improve yield, reduce quality deviations, scrap and rework, and support cost-efficient, preventive operations.
Specific Responsibilities
- Provide manufacturing engineering support for daily production, process control, quality performance, cost reduction and delivery commitments in Slip & Glaze and related ceramic manufacturing processes.
- Own shop-floor process stability through daily monitoring of critical parameters such as viscosity, specific gravity, CRP, gel,
% transmittance and other rheological or material conditions affecting slip, glaze and slurry performance.
- Lead formula changes, rheological adjustments and process recommendations for slip, glaze and slurries based on material behavior, production data, quality trends and engineering analysis.
- Manage and control raw material, slip, glaze and slurry inventories, including programming, consumption control, batch adherence and operational decisions related to railcar unloading and material availability.
- Drive corrective and preventive actions to reduce crack rate, green-phase quality issues, scrap, rework and other process-related deviations impacting Plant 3 yield and cost performance.
- Develop, implement and sustain standard work, process specifications, engineering controls and reaction plans to shift operations from reactive troubleshooting to preventive process management.
