Industrial Engineer

The Opportunity

Join Hitachi Energy as an Industrial Engineer, where you will play a pivotal role in shaping the physical flow and operational efficiency of a worldclass production environment. This is an exciting opportunity to lead highimpact layout transformations, optimize material flow, and design production spaces that support safe, stable, and scalable operations.

In this role, you will influence everything from workstation design to major equipment transitions, partnering across Operations, Quality, Safety, Facilities, and Engineering to bring forward innovative solutions that enhance performance and reduce waste. You'll take ownership of the factory's master layout, drive Lean improvements, and support cuttingedge manufacturing processes that power a more sustainable energy future.

If you thrive in fastpaced environments, enjoy solving complex operational challenges, and excel at turning conceptual ideas into practical, onthefloor execution, this opportunity allows you to make a lasting impact every day.

Responsible to ensure compliance with applicable external and internal regulations, procedures and guidelines.

How You'll Make an Impact

• Own and maintain the factory master layout in AutoCAD, ensuring controlled governance of revisions and production area changes.

• Lead facility space planning, production moves, and phased transitions with minimal operational disruption.

• Drive Lean transformations across Mechanical Test Bays, the High Voltage Lab, Shipping, and Material Handling.

• Design and standardize workstation layouts, material presentation methods, and visual management systems.

• Conduct time studies, line balancing, and flow analysis to validate staffing and improve throughput.

• Lead crane and materialhandling infrastructure planning, coordinating with external vendors.

• Perform field measurements, constraint analysis, and feasibility reviews before installation.

• Govern modular workstation systems (Creform/8020), including standards and documentation.
