Industrial engineer

Jon Cole

Professional Summary:

In my tenure as an Engineer, I have 12 years of experience. Within that

experience, I have been a Industrial. Mechanical, and Manufacturing

Engineer respectively. My main focus and bulk of experience as been working

Lean Manufacturing projects, such as optimizing product flow using floor

layouts and other lean tools like spaghetti diagrams to increase production

and minimize overtime. As Manufacturing Engineer, I was involved with

creating methods of operations while working with experts on the floor to

make the product as efficiently as possible. This included red lining the

mfg plan and processing the engineering change requests (ECR). All an all,

my experience as been to design and implement a robust Manufacturing system

that eliminates waste and increases product flow.
