The intern will support initiatives aimed at reducing waste, improving workflow, increasing safety, and enhancing productivity across the engine MRE shop floor. 

This position is ideal for a student pursuing a degree in Industrial Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or Operations Management who is passionate about process optimization and problem-solving. 

 

Responsibilities:

  • Process Analysis: Assist in mapping current-state workflows (Value Stream Mapping) for engine disassembly, cleaning, inspection, piece part repair and assembly processes to identify bottlenecks and inefficiencies. 
  • Data Collection & Analysis: Gather and analyze operational data (cycle times, turnaround times, scrap rates) using Excel and other data visualization tools to support improvement projects. 
  • 6S Implementation: Support the implementation and auditing of 6S (Sort, Set in Order, Shine, Standardize, Sustain, Safety) practices within the workshop, millwright, and work cells to ensure a safe and organized environment. 
  • Standard Work Development: Assist various departments in documenting and updating standard work processes and visual work instructions to ensure consistency and quality. 
  • Project Management: Manage small-scale improvement projects from conception to implementation, tracking progress and reporting results to leadership. 
  • Safety Focus: Identify potential safety hazards in the work environment and propose ergonomic or layout improvements to mitigate risks. 
  • Reporting: Create presentations and reports summarizing project findings, cost savings, and impact on Key Performance Indicators (KPIs). 

Qualifications:

Education: 

  • Currently in 3rd year or later of a bachelor's degree in industrial engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Operations Management, or a related field. 
  • Available for an 8-month co-op term (4-month applications will not be considered).

Technical Skills:

  • Proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite (Excel, PowerPoint, Word) and Visio. 
  • Basic understanding of Lean Six Sigma principles (DMAIC, 6S, Value Stream Mapping, Root Cause Analysis). 
  • Familiarity with CAD software, (e.g., AutoCAD) is a plus but not required. 
  • Familiarity with data visualization tools, (e.g., Tableau, Power BI) is a plus but not required. 

Soft Skills:

  • Strong analytical and problem-solving abilities. 
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills. 
  • Ability to work effectively in a team environment and interact with shop floor technicians. 
  • High level of integrity and commitment to safety and quality. 
  • Intermediate level knowledge of English is necessary.
