Analyzes manufacturing processes to recommend and document process improvements and estimate efficiency, quality, or safety gains from revised methods.

Collaborates with Production, Quality, Maintenance, Engineering, and Planning teams to standardize processes and implement sustainable improvements.
Supports assigned manufacturing departments or production areas, such as cutting, sewing, upholstery, assembly, finishing, or packing.

Collaborates with Product Development and Engineering during new product introduction to evaluate manufacturability, establish preliminary labor standards, identify process risks, and support smooth production launch.
