Manufacturing Engineer

​As part of the Continuous Improvement team at ECR International, I owned assembly documentation.  I made it my project to investigate all old assembly documentation and update it with the companies current processes.

I ran a project to reorganized the area where operators packed kit boxes for boilers to remove guesswork, make the process more intuitive and less reliant on English reading comprehension.

• I made diagrams to show what parts go in what box.

• Used Lean and 6S concepts to reorganize the area with a focus on items that go in all kit boxes being close together & within the easiest reach​

​

One of my most significant projects involved a complete redesign of work instructions for operator use on one of the production lines.  This redesign broke operations into smaller, easier to understand steps with accompanying pictures.

• My main focus on this change was cooperation and feedback from operators who would need to use this documentation​

• I addressed previous issues with difficulty accessing documentation on the line, out of date information, and necessary English reading comprehension skills
