What to Expect
This Manufacturing Engineer will design material flow for global factory design projects for vehicle and energy products.
This role focuses on the end-to-end design of raw material and WIP flow, from concept design through handoff of a fully detailed plan to Operations. This role will design the inbound loading area, provide material handling headcount estimates, make equipment recommendations for forklift-free operations, and ensure the lineside space is efficiently designed.
What You'll Do
- Develop End to End Material Flow Design for the entirety of the Bill of Materials for new products and new factories/expansions, while optimizing variables such as factory space, labor and throughput
- Collaborate closely with Manufacturing, packaging and supply chain to drive Design for Manufacturability in future programs early in the design phase
- Develop process designs that form the basis of high-volume production lines and support Tesla's industry-leading dimensional quality of the vehicles produced
- Design innovative material flow strategies for a wide variety of materials for all production lines
- Integrate forklift-free delivery strategies to support safety and drive efficiency
- Participate in the development and review of early project planning documents such as project timelines, Requests for Quotations, FMEA's and Safety Risk Assessments
- Arrange and participate in line design reviews of robot and tooling simulations, cycle time plans, and general line layout, driving optimization towards fundamental engineering limits
- Improve/ Design models to aid with predicting material handling labor, warehouse space and material handling equipment
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams to improve safety, quality, and efficiency metrics duringfactory design
What You'll Bring
- Bachelor's Degree in Mechanical, Manufacturing, or ElectricalEngineering or equivalent experience
- Have working knowledge of Design for Manufacturability
- Strong familiarity with structured problems solving methodologies (DMAIC, 8D, etc.)
- 3D CAD experience in reviewing and modifying 3D models of tooling and product
- Good understanding of BOMs, manufacturability, process design, process validation, assembly
- Methods, design reviews and cost reduction methodologies
- Experienced with AUTOCAD, CATIA or other similar software/tools
- Experienced with Excel (VBA Plus) and visualization tools
