Senior Industrial Engineer

We are looking for a Senior Industrial Engineer to join our rapidly growing team in Quincy, RI. In this role, you will be responsible for designing and optimizing the manufacturing operations behind these vehicles inside a large-scale R&D environment where the line, the product, and the processes are all maturing at once. You'll take a data-driven approach to designing production lines and workstation layouts — from prototype and low-rate build through full-rate production — and own the metrics that keep them healthy. This is holistic ownership in a fast-paced, resource-limited setting, working shoulder-to-shoulder with Engineering, Supply Chain, Quality, and Business Operations to get complex undersea hardware built and shipped to spec. If you are someone who thrives on bringing order to a rapidly evolving R&D-to-production floor, this role is for you. WHAT YOU’LL DO Design production lines and workstation layouts for undersea vehicle build — from R&D/low-rate through full-rate — using Value Stream Mapping, line balancing, and material-flow (pull/Kanban) methods Specify, justify, and deploy capital equipment and tooling — define requirements for large-scale assembly, handling, and test equipment; own the business case and capex justification; and manage vendor selection, build, install, and qualification through to production readiness Own the production-health metrics and KPIs (cycle time, throughput, capacity, utilization, first-pass yield, quality) and build the tools and reports that communicate line health to Manufacturing leads and across the org Model and simulate operations (e.g., Siemens Plant/Process Simulation) to test layout and capacity scenarios before committing capital and floor space Identify bottlenecks and constraints — layout, part shortages, staffing, tooling — flag them to the right owners across Manufacturing, Supply Chain, Engineering, and Quality, and drive resolution so decision-makers have clear clear-to-build, cut-in, and buy signals REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS 5+ years in a low-rate, high-mix manufacturing or supply-chain role building complex electro-mechanical assemblies, with heavy reliance on data Experience managing large capex budgets — specifying, sourcing, and commissioning manufacturing / test equipment for heavy complex assemblies Proven line/facility design: value stream mapping, continuous/one-piece flow, and workstation design Deep material-flow expertise: pull systems, Kanban, min/max, part presentation, lineside racking and packaging Experience modeling operations in production simulation software (Siemens Plant Simulation / Process Simulation) Demonstrated end-to-end ownership of a value chain, coordinating internal and external parties to hit on-time, on-quality deliveries Working knowledge of an MES and an ERP (Oracle or equivalent) Grounding in Lean Manufacturing principles and implementation Able to read technical documentation (drawings, vendor schematics, CAD) and understand hardware processes across electronics and mechanical structures Bias toward speed and accuracy and a willingness to take on responsibility across manufacturing, engineering, and operations Eligible to obtain and maintain an active U.S. Secret security clearance PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS Bachelor's or higher in Industrial, Mechanical, Aerospace, Manufacturing, Electrical, or Computer Engineering Hands-on design of tooling, fixtures, or GSE (ground support equipment) for heavy or large-format hardware Proficiency in CAD drafting (AutoCAD a plus) SQL experience — querying and storing manufacturing/inventory metrics Additional simulation tools (Simio, or broader Siemens Tecnomatix suite) Experience in a marine, subsea, or other regulated/harsh-environment hardware program US Salary Range $126,000 — $167,000 USD The salary range for this role is an estimate based on a wide range of compensation factors, inclusive of base salary only.
