Senior Industrialization & Readiness Engineer

As a Senior Industrialization & Readiness Engineer, you will lead industrialization and industrial readiness activities for new products, first-of-kind builds, production transfers, capacity expansions, and significant manufacturing changes across the MDC production network.

The role is responsible for coordinating cross-functional stakeholders, conducting industrialization studies, assessing industrial readiness, and developing practical manufacturing strategies that enable safe, efficient, and scalable production execution.

Working across Engineering, Operations, Deployment, Manufacturing Engineering, Industrial Engineering, and Supply Chain Performance functions, the position drives alignment, assessments, and recommendations that support successful production introduction, capability development, and manufacturing optimization across manufacturing facilities.
Role Context


* Operates within an Engineer-to-Order (ETO) and low-to-medium volume manufacturing environment characterized by complex products, evolving manufacturing requirements, and frequent introduction of new configurations and capabilities.


* Supports industrialization and industrial readiness activities across manufacturing facilities.


* Provides centralized coordination and assessment for new products, first-of-kind builds, production transfers, capacity expansions, manufacturing capability development, and significant manufacturing changes.


* Works across Engineering, Operations, Deployment, Manufacturing Engineering, Industrial Engineering, and Supply Chain Performance functions to align readiness activities, evaluate manufacturing approaches, and support effective production introduction.


* Serves as a bridge between strategic industrial readiness planning and practical manufacturing execution by ensuring manufacturing considerations are incorporated early and consistently throughout deployment and industrialization activities.
