Industrial Engineering Analyst — Manufacturing Operations & Process Optimization
This opportunity is with a client of Andiamo, a globally recognized manufacturing and industrial technology organization focused on operational excellence, process optimization, and continuous improvement across complex production environments.
About The Opportunity
An industry-leading manufacturing organization is seeking a detail-oriented and analytically driven Industrial Engineering Analyst to support operational improvement initiatives across manufacturing, logistics, and production systems. This role offers the opportunity to work closely with engineering, operations, supply chain, and vendor teams to improve workflows, optimize plant processes, and support large-scale manufacturing efficiency initiatives.
The ideal candidate thrives in fast-paced industrial environments, enjoys solving operational challenges through data and analysis, and has a strong foundation in engineering principles, manufacturing systems, and continuous improvement methodologies.
This position is especially well suited for an early-career Mechanical or Industrial Engineer who enjoys combining analytical problem solving with hands-on operational collaboration.
Location: Onsite Manufacturing Environment
Schedule: Monday–Friday, 8:00 AM–5:00 PM (overtime as needed)
Contract Length: Approximately 6 months with potential extension based on business needs and performance
What You’ll Be Working On
Manufacturing & Process Improvement Support
Assist with the development, improvement, and implementation of integrated manufacturing and operational systems involving materials, workflows, equipment, information flow, and production processes.
Support manufacturing engineering teams with workstation optimization, operational flow improvements, and plant layout initiatives designed to increase efficiency and reduce waste.
Contribute to operational excellence initiatives using continuous improvement tools, lean methodologies, and process optimization techniques.
Assist with standard work development for both existing and new production lines.
Inventory & Logistics Analysis
Conduct inventory audits, analyze operational discrepancies, and investigate material flow issues impacting manufacturing or logistics performance.
Review part numbers, inventory records, and operational data to identify root causes of process inefficiencies or material inconsistencies.
Support storage optimization initiatives and collaborate with stakeholders to improve space utilization and inventory organization.
Assist with PFEP (Plan for Every Part) documentation updates and ongoing material flow management initiatives.
Vendor & Cross-Functional Coordination
Partner with vendors and suppliers throughout project lifecycles, supporting coordination efforts from concept review through production execution.
Review CAD models, engineering concepts, and technical documentation to support project alignment and operational accuracy.
Collaborate across engineering, operations, logistics, safety, and manufacturing teams to ensure projects move efficiently and accurately.
Data Analysis & Documentation
Gather, interpret, and analyze operational data to support process improvements and engineering decisions.
Create and maintain process documentation, reports, workflows, and supporting project materials.
Utilize Excel and analytical tools to evaluate trends, optimize workflows, and support continuous improvement initiatives.
What You Bring
Technical & Engineering Skills
You are highly detail-oriented and capable of managing multiple operational priorities simultaneously.
You communicate effectively across technical and non-technical teams and enjoy collaborating in cross-functional environments.
You are naturally curious, process-minded, and motivated to improve systems through data-driven analysis.
You approach operational challenges with a continuous improvement mindset and are comfortable working in fast-moving manufacturing settings.
Why This Opportunity Stands Out
Gain hands-on experience inside a sophisticated manufacturing and industrial operations environment.
Work alongside engineering and operations leaders on real-world projects that directly impact production efficiency and operational performance.
Develop valuable experience in manufacturing systems, logistics operations, process optimization, and industrial engineering methodologies.
Contribute to projects focused on operational excellence, workflow optimization, and manufacturing innovation.
Interview Process & Additional Information
Candidates selected to move forward will participate in a one-hour virtual interview with the hiring team.
Compensation is competitive for the market and aligned to experience level.
This role is ideal for candidates seeking to grow their career within manufacturing engineering, operations improvement, industrial systems, or supply chain process optimization.
