Senior Process Improvement Engineer – Medical Device Manufacturing

Athens, TX

$60–$80/hr (Based on relevant experience)

Contract-to-Hire | Direct Hire possible for standout talent

Kelly Engineering is recruiting a senior-level Process Improvement Engineer for a medical device manufacturing site in Athens, TX that needs immediate process stabilization and quality improvement.

This role is built for a hands-on “fixer”. You’ll be stepping into manufacturing processes, addressing real quality issues, and helping redesign workflows to stabilize and optimize production in an FDA-regulated environment.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Fix and redesign inefficient manufacturing processes
• Reduce scrap, rework, defects, and operational risk
• Lead hands-on Lean and continuous improvement efforts
• Address quality issues at the root cause level
• Work directly on the manufacturing floor with Ops and Quality

What We’re Looking For

• 5–12 years of medical device manufacturing experience
• FDA-regulated environment (Class II / 510(k))
• Manufacturing, Process, or Industrial Engineering background
• Proven experience fixing poorly designed or unstable processes
• Comfortable working under quality and regulatory pressure

Why This Role Stands Out

• High-impact, hands-on work
• Real ownership and visibility
• Direct hire is on the table for the right candidate
• Hourly rate flexibility for rockstar candidates with relevant experience

Candidates without medical device manufacturing experience will not be considered.

If you’re known for walking into tough manufacturing environments and fixing problems, this is the role for you.
