3. Engineering Project Tracking

• Maintain a consolidated Engineering project tracker.
• Track project:
• Owner
• Scope
• Budget
• Schedule
• Milestones
• Risks
• Open actions
• Expected benefits
• Support capital-project documentation and management reviews.
• Assist project leaders with executive summaries, one-page reports, schedules, and status updates.
• Highlight schedule, cost, resource, or implementation risks requiring management attention.

4. E2E & Documentation Management

• Support Engineering E2E documentation and readiness tracking.
• Maintain Engineering documentation in accordance with DCC / ISO 9001 requirements.
• Track completion and revision status of:
• JIS / SOP
• PFMEA
• Control Plans
• Process Flow
• Training documents
• PM requirements
• Process specifications
• Equipment documentation
• Support document numbering, revision control, and audit readiness.

5. Continuous Improvement

• Support Kaizen and countermeasure tracking across Engineering.
• Analyze recurring production and equipment distractors.
• Assist teams with baseline-versus-improved performance analysis.
• Validate improvement results using measurable data.
• Support Genchi / Gemba activities and follow-up action tracking.
• Help quantify improvements in:
• Safety
• Quality
• Productivity
• Cost
• Delivery
• Ergonomics

6. Management Reporting & Communication

• Prepare weekly Engineering management reports.
• Develop concise executive-level summaries for Engineering leadership.
• Maintain action-item trackers from Engineering meetings.
• Ensure meeting actions include Owner / Due Date / Countermeasure / Status.
• Follow up with action owners prior to established deadlines.
• Support preparation of material for Plant, Executive, Global Engineering, and cross-functional reviews.

Recommended Qualifications

Education

• Bachelor's degree preferred in Engineering, Engineering Technology, Data Analytics, Industrial Engineering, Business Analytics, Operations, or related field.
• Equivalent manufacturing experience may be considered.

Technical Skills

• Advanced Microsoft Excel
• PowerPoint
• Power BI or similar visualization tools
• Manufacturing data analysis
• SharePoint / document-management experience
• Strong analytical and problem-solving capability

Key Competencies

• Strong attention to detail
• Data accuracy and discipline
• Ability to manage multiple priorities simultaneously
• Strong follow-up and action closure
• Manufacturing-process understanding
• Cross-functional communication
• Executive-level presentation skills
• Ability to convert large amounts of information into concise management summaries
• Comfortable working directly on the manufacturing floor as well as with management

Measures of Success

The Engineering Analyst should be measured on tangible results, including:

• Engineering action-item closure
• KPI reporting accuracy and timeliness
• E2E documentation completion
• Engineering document compliance
• Project milestone tracking accuracy
• Reduction of overdue Engineering actions
• Traceability issue closure
• Quality and timeliness of management reporting

Role Philosophy

This position is not intended to be solely an administrative reporting role.

The Engineering Analyst should actively analyze the data, identify abnormalities, challenge gaps, follow actions to closure, and provide Engineering leadership with the information necessary to make timely decisions.

The objective is to allow Engineers and Engineering Managers to spend more time on technical problem solving, production support, equipment, automation, process improvement, and project execution, while creating a disciplined analytical backbone for the Engineering organization.
