Synerfac Technical Staffing
Litchfield, Michigan
Job Description Job Description Shape How Products Are Made Join an industry-leading manufacturing team as the engineer who turns complex ideas into repeatable, high-quality production. As our Injection Molding Process & Automation Engineer, you'll develop and refine process standards, elevate quality systems, and launch improvements that impact both current and next-generation products on the plant floor. A day in the life Morning starts with a quick scan of quality dashboards and production KPIs. You walk the molding cells, check fill/pack/hold profiles, and review last night's alarms. A Fanuc robot needs a minor path tweak to prevent part scuffing-done. Before lunch, you design a DOE to validate a new resin parameter window. Afternoon brings a cross-functional huddle with maintenance and operators to lock in a stable, documented process for a new tool. You finish by capturing lessons learned and updating work instructions. What you will do Develop, document, and optimize molding and assembly processes that improve yield, cycle time, and part quality for both existing and new products. Own quality procedures on the line: apply data-driven problem solving, SPC, and corrective actions to reduce scrap and variability. Program, adjust, and troubleshoot industrial robots (Fanuc highly preferred) to ensure safe, reliable, and efficient part handling. Lead structured experiments (DOE) to establish robust processing windows and validate changes. Diagnose and resolve issues with industrial automation and auxiliary equipment alongside maintenance and production teams. Standardize work and train operators/technicians on best practices and new procedures. Schedule & employment Direct-hire role (no contract or temp period) Monday-Friday, 8:00 a.m.-5:00 p.m. with flexible scheduling What you bring Bachelor's degree. Hands-on manufacturing experience; automotive background preferred. Experience as a Process Technician and/or Process Engineer. Injection molding expertise, including start-up, setup, and parameter optimization. Industrial robot programming skills; Fanuc experience strongly preferred. Proven troubleshooting ability for industrial automation equipment. Process engineering fundamentals, production optimization, and quality control data analysis. Process development experience and competency with Design of Experiments (DOE). Equipment you'll encounter Injection molding machines: Nissei, Sodick, Arburg Industrial robots: Fanuc
