The ideal candidate has strong industrial engineering fundamentals, CAD proficiency, and working knowledge of facilities systems, with the ability to translate production needs into practical, buildable layouts in a brownfield environment.

How You’ll Make an Impact

Layout Planning & CAD Ownership (Primary Focus)

• Develop, maintain, and control 2D/3D factory layouts using AutoCAD (or equivalent):
• Own the master plant layout, ensuring accuracy, revision control, and alignment with actual floor conditions.
• Create concept, intermediate, and final layouts for: New equipment installations, Line rebalancing and Lean transformations, Capital projects and capacity expansions, Temporary and phased layouts during construction or moves
• Support layout reviews with Operations, EHS, Quality, Maintenance, and Leadership using clear, to‑scale drawings.

Facilities & Utilities Integration

• Incorporate facilities engineering considerations into layouts, including electrical power and panel locations, compressed air, gas, water, and cooling, process exhaust, dust/fume collection, and ventilation, foundations, pits, and equipment anchoring, overhead cranes, hoists, and lifting envelopes
• Coordinate with Facilities and Maintenance to validate utility capacity and routing, equipment service and maintenance access, code compliance and constructability
• Support equipment moves and installs, ensuring layouts are executable with minimal disruption.

What You Bring

• 3 or more years of direct experience in factory layout planning or industrial engineering in a manufacturing environment.
• Strong, hands‑on proficiency in AutoCAD (or similar CAD software) for factory layouts.
• AutoCAD (required), Optional: Inventor, SolidWorks, Visio
• Practical experience applying Lean manufacturing principles to physical layout design.
• Experience working in brown- and greenfield plants with active production.
• Experience with layout simulation tools (Plant Simulation, FlexSim, AnyLogic) or capacity modeling.
• Comfortable spending time on the shop floor validating layouts against reality.
• This position may require an export license from the Department of Commerce, Bureau of Industry and Security and/or the Department of State, Directorate of Defense Trade Controls. Issuance of any required license is a prerequisite for this position.
