## Description

We are seeking a Trainee MFG to support FTPM and FPS initiatives within the machining department. The successful candidate will assist Machining and Maintenance Engineers in optimizing current production processes, participate in problem-solving activities, monitor and analyze key manufacturing and maintenance metrics, and collaborate in the development and update of Standardized Work Sheets and safety protocols.

Responsibilities:

- Support FTPM and FPS initiatives within the machining department.

- Assist Machining and Maintenance Engineers in the optimization of current production processes (CNC machining, tooling, washing, and assembly).

- Participate actively in problem-solving activities (using 5Whys, Fishbone, and Is/Is Not analysis) focused on equipment reliability, cycle times, and quality issues.

- Monitor, track, and analyze key manufacturing and maintenance metrics (JPH, OEE, MTBF, MTTR, Scrap, and Tooling Costs).

- Collaborate in the development and update of Standardized Work Sheets (SWS), Job Instruction Sheets (JIS), and safety protocols for machining stations.

- Assist in the management of tooling life cycles, including testing new cutting tools and documenting performance trials.

- Support the implementation of continuous improvement (Kaizen) ideas and cost-reduction projects within the production lines.

- Work with Ford corporate systems such as MAXIMO, QLSCM, CORA, and POSMON to track work orders, equipment history, and performance data.

- Assist in the coordination of maintenance planning and shutdown activities for the machining area.

- Support Simultaneous Engineering and Forward Planning teams during new model launches, equipment installations, or line re-layouts.

- Help document breakdown root causes in R&M (Reliability & Maintainability) reports and follow up on corrective actions.

- Act as a bridge of communication between the engineering team, Team Leaders, and hourly operators to drive projects forward.

Qualifications:

- Bachelor's Degree in Mechatronics or Mechanical Engineering.

- Previous internship or co-op experience in an automotive or high-volume manufacturing environment (machining or powertrain experience is a strong plus).

- Basic knowledge of CNC programming (G & M codes), cutting tool geometry, and machining parameters.

- Familiarity with PLC logic, automation, or robotics (Fanuc, ABB).

- Proficiency in CAD software (AutoCAD, SolidWorks) and advanced Microsoft Excel for data analysis.

- Basic knowledge of industrial safety standards (LOTO, ergonomics).
