How do they match: Manufacturing Engineers

  • Apply continuous improvement methods, such as lean manufacturing, to enhance manufacturing quality, reliability, or cost-effectiveness.
  • Develop sustainable manufacturing technologies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, minimize raw material use, replace toxic materials with non-toxic materials, replace non-renewable materials with renewable materials, or reduce waste.
  • Evaluate current or proposed manufacturing processes or practices for environmental sustainability, considering factors such as greenhouse gas emissions, air pollution, water pollution, energy use, or waste creation.
  • Evaluate manufactured products according to specifications and quality standards.
  • Identify opportunities or implement changes to improve manufacturing processes or products or to reduce costs, using knowledge of fabrication processes, tooling and production equipment, assembly methods, quality control standards, or product design, materials and parts.
  • Supervise technicians, technologists, analysts, administrative staff, or other engineers.

  • Evaluate designs or specifications to ensure quality.
  • Investigate the environmental impact of projects.
  • Recommend technical design or process changes to improve efficiency, quality, or performance.
