• Hands‑on experience with Amada Robotics (Yaskawa) and PLC/Omron programming
  .
• Programming experience with Fanuc, Mitsubishi, or Yaskawa robotic systems is highly desired.
• Familiarity with fabrication processes
  , robotic automation, and press brake programming.
• Proficiency in 8D methodology
  , PFMEA, root cause tools (5
  
  Why, fishbone/Ishikawa), and structured problem‑solving.
• Six Sigma knowledge or certification strongly preferred.
• Demonstrated analytical skills with data evaluation, technical troubleshooting, and project execution.
• Solid communication skills, leadership capability, and strong attention to detail.
• Working knowledge of SAP
  , Access/SQL databases, and manufacturing/capacity planning systems.
• Proficiency in Excel, Tableau, and Power BI for data and performance analysis.
• Experience with robotic programming, AutoCAD, PLC programming, and vision systems preferred.
• Experience leading CI projects that improve labor efficiency, material flow, OEE, or fabrication throughput.
• Background in process design, ergonomics, simulation tools, and cost analysis.
• Strong desire to work hands‑on in a production environment with cross‑functional partners.
