Shifts Available:

• 1st: 6:00 AM – 2:30 PM
• Industry: Food & Beverage | CPG | High-Speed Manufacturing

The Opportunity

This is a newly created Process Engineer role with one of the most stable and recognizable manufacturers in the Midwest. The company operates a large, recently renovated production facility and continues to reinvest heavily in automation, technology, infrastructure, and—most importantly—its people.

If you’re a Process Engineer who thrives in highly automated, fast-paced environments and enjoys driving continuous improvement on the plant floor, this is a chance to make a real impact while building a long-term career with a company known for job security, upward mobility, and internal growth.

There are three openings (one per shift) due to expansion.

Why Engineers Stay Here

• Extremely stable business with no shortage of work
• Strong track record of internal promotion at both plant and corporate levels
• Ongoing investment in automation, equipment upgrades, and technology
• Large, modern facility with multiple high-speed production lines
• Collaborative, team-first culture—even within a union environment
• Ability to influence a wide range of stakeholders across operations

What You’ll Be Doing

Process Ownership & Continuous Improvement

• Serve as the subject matter expert for manufacturing processes across assigned production lines
• Lead continuous improvement initiatives focused on efficiency, throughput, cost reduction, and KPI performance
• Apply Lean and data-driven methodologies to reduce variation and improve process capability

Plant Floor & Cross-Functional Leadership

• Partner closely with Production, Maintenance, Quality, and Engineering teams
• Influence hourly production teams and plant leadership without direct authority
• Support process adjustments, centerlining, and process control plans

Data, Automation & Optimization

• Analyze equipment efficiency, material usage, and process performance
• Apply statistical tools (SPC, capability studies, variation reduction) to guide decisions
• Support automation upgrades and equipment improvements (no new line commissioning planned)

Flexibility & Support

• While assigned to a primary shift, provide occasional off-shift support as issues arise—especially during peak summer production months

What We’re Looking For

Highly Preferred

• 4–8+ years of Process Engineering experience in a high-speed manufacturing environment
• Background in food & beverage, bottling, CPG, pharmaceutical, or chemical manufacturing
• Strong understanding of automated production lines (bottling, packaging, blow molding, etc.)
• Engineering degree (Mechanical, Electrical, Manufacturing, Industrial, Mechatronics preferred)
• Comfortable spending time on the plant floor and working cross-functionally

Nice to Have

• Lean Six Sigma or project management certification
• Experience working in a union manufacturing environment
• SAP or similar ERP system experience

Ideal Candidate Profile

• Strong influencer who can connect with both hourly operators and leadership
• Data-driven problem solver with a hands-on mindset
• Comfortable operating in a large, fast-moving plant
• Flexible and willing to support off-shifts when needed
• Looking for long-term stability with room to grow

Interview Process

1. Recruiter phone screen (30 min)
2. Hiring Manager video interview (30 min)
3. Panel video interview with leadership (60 min)
4. On-site interview & plant tour

Why This Is a Career Move

This is not a “project-only” engineering role. You’ll have ownership, visibility, and influence inside a major manufacturing operation—while working for a company that offers long-term security, competitive pay, bonuses, and advancement opportunities.

If you’re a Process Engineer looking to step into a high-impact role at a best-in-class manufacturing facility, this is a rare opportunity worth exploring.
