Industrial Engineer 2

Job Description

Position Summary

The Industrial Engineer II will play a key role in designing and optimizing manufacturing environments using advanced simulation tools. This position focuses on improving throughput, reducing waste, and enhancing operational efficiency through data-driven modeling and analysis. The ideal candidate will have hands-on experience with simulation software and a strong understanding of manufacturing systems in regulated industries.

Key Responsibilities

• Develop and validate discrete event simulation models to analyze and optimize manufacturing workflows, equipment utilization, and facility layouts.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to gather input data and define model parameters.
• Interpret simulation results to provide actionable recommendations for process improvements and layout changes.
• Support the design of manufacturing environments including cleanrooms, packaging areas, and support spaces.
• Conduct time studies, bottleneck analyses, and capacity planning using simulation and analytical tools.
• Prepare technical reports, visualizations, and presentations for internal and client stakeholders.
• Assist in the development of digital twins and virtual commissioning strategies.
• Ensure compliance with GMP, FDA, and other regulatory standards in simulation-based design decisions.

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Industrial Engineering, Systems Engineering, or related field.
• 3–5 years of experience in manufacturing systems design and optimization.
• Proficiency in simulation software such as FlexSim, Arena, Simio, AnyLogic, or equivalent.
• Strong analytical skills and experience with data modeling and statistical analysis.
• Familiarity with lean manufacturing, Six Sigma, and continuous improvement methodologies.
• Excellent communication and collaboration skills.

Preferred Skills

• Experience in life sciences, pharmaceutical, or food & beverage manufacturing environments.
• Knowledge of facility layout planning and process flow mapping.
• Exposure to BIM tools (e.g., Revit) and integration with simulation platforms.
• Ability to manage multiple projects and deliverables in a fast-paced environment.
