Job Description

We are seeking an experienced Industrial Engineer with expertise in Plant Simulation to support modeling and optimization of product flow through a complex rocket motor manufacturing facility. This role will develop, validate, and maintain discrete-event simulation models that represent manufacturing operations, material flow, equipment, labor, and production constraints. We are scaling strategically with speed and precision, making this an exciting opportunity to join a team dedicated to delivering for our customers.

Essential Functions

**- Develop and maintain Siemens Plant Simulation models for complex manufacturing flow

• Build logic for product routing, resource utilization, material handling, queues, buffers, and process dependencies

• Analyze simulation results to identify bottlenecks, capacity limitations, labor constraints, and WIP buildup

• Recommend and evaluate mitigation actions such as staffing changes, equipment reallocation, buffer sizing, sequencing improvements, and capital investments

• Perform what-if and trade study analyses to support production rate changes, facility improvements, and long-range capacity planning

• Validate model performance using production data and collaborate with operations, engineering, and planning teams to deliver actionable recommendations

• Ability to obtain a government security clearance**

Qualifications

**- Bachelor’s Degree and minimum 6 years of prior relevant experience. Graduate Degree and a minimum of 4 years of prior related experience. In lieu of a degree, minimum of 10 years of prior related experience.
