Job Title:
Lead, Continuous Improvement
Job Description:
THE ROLE
Our manufacturing site in Colorado Springs, CO is seeking a new Lead, Continuous Improvement Engineer to join our team. In this role, the new hire will
drive operational excellence across a multi-process manufacturing site combining injection molding, high-precision CNC machining, and manual/automated assembly. This role owns the site's continuous improvement roadmap end to end — identifying opportunities, leading cross-functional kaizen and Six Sigma projects, and institutionalizing lean systems (5S, standard work, TPM, SMED, value stream mapping) that improve safety, quality, delivery, and cost (SQDC).
WHAT YOU'LL DO
Lead site-wide continuous improvement strategy across injection molding, precision machining, and assembly value streams, aligning CI priorities with plant and regional business objectives.
Own and mature the site's lean management system: 5S, visual management, standard work, TPM, SMED, error-proofing (poka-yoke), and daily management/tiered accountability boards.
Plan and lead Kaizen events, DMAIC/Six Sigma projects, and rapid problem-solving (A3, 8D, 5-Why, fishbone) to close gaps in scrap, cycle time, OEE, first-pass yield, and on-time delivery.
Partner with Manufacturing Engineering to optimize injection molding process parameters (cycle time, cooling, hot runner performance) and CNC/precision machining processes (tolerance capability, tool life, setup reduction).
Drive OEE and downtime-reduction programs on molding presses, CNC machining centers, and assembly lines through data analysis, root-cause elimination, and preventive/predictive maintenance collaboration.
Use statistical tools (SPC, Cpk/Ppk, capability studies, DOE) to reduce process variation and support PPAP/APQP activities for new and existing programs.
Build, mentor, and lead a team of CI engineers and technicians; develop their technical and leadership capability as a bench for future CI and operations roles.
Own the site's CI project pipeline and savings tracking, reporting productivity, cost-reduction, and quality improvement results to plant and regional leadership.
Lead capital project scoping and justification (ROI/payback) for automation, tooling, and equipment upgrades in molding, machining, and assembly.
Support new product/program launches by embedding CI principles into line design, work cell layout, and standard work from the outset.
Champion a safety-first culture, ensuring CI initiatives improve ergonomics and reduce injury risk alongside productivity gains.
Serve as a change agent and coach for plant leadership, supervisors, and operators, building a self-sustaining culture of continuous improvement.
WHAT WE SEEK
Education: Bachelor's degree in Industrial, Manufacturing, Mechanical Engineering, or related technical field required; advanced degree (MBA or MS in Engineering/Operations) preferred
Experience: 7–10+ years of progressive manufacturing/CI experience, with direct exposure to injection molding and precision machining environments; prior experience leading teams and CI projects at a plant level required.
Certifications: Lean Six Sigma Black Belt required (Master Black Belt a plus); formal 5S/TPM training preferred.
Deep working knowledge of injection molding fundamentals (materials, tooling, process setup, scientific molding) and high-precision machining (CNC programming basics, GD&T, metrology/CMM).
Proven track record applying lean and Six Sigma tools to deliver measurable SQDC results in a regulated or tolerance-critical manufacturing environment.
Strong financial acumen — able to build business cases, track project ROI, and speak fluently to cost-per-part, labor efficiency, and capital payback.
Demonstrated people-leadership ability: coaching, mentoring, and developing engineers and technicians, with the executive presence to influence plant and regional leadership.
Proficiency with data and CI tooling (Minitab or equivalent statistical software, ERP/MES systems, Excel-based analysis); comfort building dashboards to report results.
Excellent communication and project management skills; able to lead cross-functional teams without direct authority.
