Benefits offered may include health care, dental, vision, life insurance; 401(k); education assistance; paid time off including PTO, holidays, and any other paid leave required by law.JOB DESCRIPTIONOverviewThe Material Flow Engineering Manager at Client is a critical leadership role responsible for designing, optimizing, and executing the end-to-end material supply chain, from external suppliers directly to the assembly line. The primary goal is to ensure material availability to meet high-volume production targets while maintaining efficiency and safety. This role requires a technical leader capable of navigating ambiguity, driving cross-functional strategy, and implementing \"first-principles\" engineering solutions across the global footprint.Key Responsibilities● Advanced Automation and AI Strategy:○ Lead automation of supply chain logistics and high-impact projects that bridge the gap between physical logistics and digital intelligence.○ Leverage Artificial Intelligence and advanced automation to predict bottlenecks before they happen and optimize throughput in real-time.○ Direct the deployment and integration of material handling automation, including Autonomous Guided Vehicles (AGVs), Automated Storage and Retrieval Systems(ASRS), and conveyor systems.● Strategy and Optimization:○ Lead the development, modeling, and analysis of material flow strategies (e.g.,sequencing, batching, storage) to achieve optimal cost, space utilization, and throughput.○ Develop models to analyze the cost, throughput, and space factors for part sequencing, material batching, intermediate storage locations, and other material flow strategies.● Data & Systems Architecture:○ Oversee the optimization and maintenance of cross-functional databases to ensure dataintegrity for material tracking and inventory control.○ Collaborate with IT to architect and implement digital systems tailored to support evolvingoperational requirements.○ Configure control cycles and logic for FLP and PACE systems to automate materialreplenishment triggers. (Client software)○ Strategize IT hardware requirements and oversee the deployment of technologyinterfaces across the production floor.● Engineering & Layout Design:○ Oversee the creation of efficient, Lean, and safe factory layouts and material flow plans,covering all processes from receiving through delivery to the production line.○ Design high-efficiency warehouse layouts, including kitting cells, AGV pathways, and optimized material supply routes.○ Specify and integrate material handling assets, including tuggers, AGVs, forklift and custom-engineered racking systems.○ Partner with Manufacturing Engineering (MEs) to engineer material delivery solutions (dollies, lift tables, GFRs) that align with specific packaging ergonomics.○ Engage with the Continuous Improvement (CI) team to prototype innovative equipment and optimize process cycle times.● Resource & Project Management:○ Manage cross-functional project teams, vendor relationships (LLP), and project timelines to successfully deliver on safety, quality, and production metrics.○ Conduct data-driven workload analysis to determine precise Headcount (HC) requirements and labor allocation.○ Lead formal 'buy-off' procedures with Operations to ensure new processes meet safety, ergonomic, and throughput standards.○ Drive project momentum through weekly status reporting, cross-functional alignment meetings, and proactive bottleneck escalation.● Documentation & Standard Work:○ Author comprehensive Work Instructions (SOPs) and Job Cards to standardize tasks and minimize process variation.○ Provide subject matter expertise during the conceptual phases of new projects to ensure 'Design for Logistics' principles are applied.Required Qualifications● Experience: preferably of 5 to 10 years of experience in high-volume manufacturing OEM\"s, logistics, or supply chain engineering, with at least 5 years in a formal supervisory or leadershipcapacity.● Education: Bachelor\"s degree in Engineering, Supply Chain, Industrial Engineering, or a related field.● Technical Proficiency:○ 2+ years\" experience with data-based development of end-to-end supply chain, logistics, and/or material flow processes for high volume, high complexity production or logistics facilities.○ Demonstrated skill in CAD software (AutoCAD) for layout planning, including 2+ years\" experience.○ Strong capability in data analysis tools (Excel/Google Sheets) and analytical ability to break down complex problems and data sets to derive meaningful, actionable results.○ Hands-on experience with key manufacturing and logistics systems, such asManufacturing Execution Systems (MES), Material Requirements Planning (MRP), orWarehouse Management Systems (WMS).● Core Skills: Exceptional analytical abilities, proven leadership qualities, and strong communication skills necessary to navigate and thrive in a fast-paced, high-growth environment characterized by ambiguity.Preferred Qualifications● An MBA or Master's degree.● Experience working with Yard Management Systems (YMS).● Experience with modeling or simulation software (Flexsim, AnyLogic, etc.) and data visualizationtools (MS PowerBI).● Ability to understand Engineering and Design direction and provide focused supply-chainsolutions accordingly.Belcan is a leading provider of qualified personnel to many of the world's most respected enterprises.
