PRODUCTION ENGINEER – Nashik Fresher

Core Responsibilities

A Production Engineer€™s daily work is a mix of desk analysis and boots-on-the-ground floor management.

1. Process Optimization & Efficiency

• ✓ OEE Tracking: Monitoring Overall Equipment Effectiveness, which measures how much of your manufacturing time is truly productive (Availability × Performance × Quality).
• ✓ Bottleneck Removal: Identifying parts of the assembly line where work gets stuck and rearranging the workflow to keep things moving.
• ✓ Cost Reduction: Finding ways to use less electricity, fewer raw materials, and less time for each unit produced.

2. Technical Oversight

• ✓ Line Setup: Designing the layout of the machines and workstations to minimize the distance a part has to travel.
• ✓ Troubleshooting: Being the first person called when a machine stops or when the scrap rate (rejected products) suddenly goes up.

Tooling & Jigs: Designing or ordering specific tools (jigs/fixtures) that help workers assemble parts faster and with fewer errors.

3. Team & Resource Management

• ✓ Manpower Planning: Deciding how many people are needed per shift to meet the daily production target.
• ✓ SOP Implementation: Writing and enforcing Standard Operating Procedures so that every worker builds the product exactly the same way.

4. Safety & Maintenance

• ✓ Preventive Maintenance: Scheduling machine downtime for service before they break, avoiding expensive emergency repairs.
• ✓ EHS Compliance: Ensuring every worker is wearing PPE and that the factory floor follows environmental and safety laws.
