About Pierce, an Oshkosh companyAt Pierce Manufacturing, we build trucks that protect people and communities around the world. To our team, there is no room for anything less than providing the absolute best. Since 1913, building truck bodies on Model T Ford chassis in an old converted church has evolved to creating highly customized, carefully designed and engineering pumpers, aerials, tankers and rescue units that have no equal. Today, you'll find more than 30,000 Pierce apparatuses on the road that are making a difference in people's lives, every day. To us, every step in the process of building our trucks is personal. From innovation and expertise, to the customization and service. Our trucks are designed to perform under the toughest conditions.We are looking for an experienced and motivated candidate to serve as a Principal Manufacturing Engineer overseeing discrete event simulations and creation of digital factories. The Principal Manufacturing Engineer will provide technical leadership for the optimization of Oshkosh’s Vocational segment manufacturing capacities and capabilities. Key projects consist of the integration of lean manufacturing principles, new production technologies, with simulation models to transform our global footprint for profitable growth. This is a crucial role in Oshkosh’s Vocational segment’s strategy as we look to gain efficiencies within our product lines and manufacturing processes.  YOUR IMPACT •    Develop discrete event simulation models for future state capacity scenarios to calculate throughput, staffing level, utilization of workstations, number of production cells required, queue size, material flow and other KPIs. •    Manage and coordinate resources to drive transformation of 2D layouts into digital (3D) factories layouts in support of transformation growth strategy of the vocational segment. •    Lead and support for the validation of operational efficiency assumptions for justifying the selection of major capital equipment across the enterprise. •    Support the validation of new manufacturing technologies and process innovations that provide additional capability within the factories. •    Support a wide variety of investigative and analytical studies related to the global manufacturing strategy of the Vocational segment. Ensure simulation models align with optimal location of factories to support customer base at the best network cost (right products are being manufactured in the right location). •    Lead and participate in strategic project reviews, scenario planning, and validation of input and output assumptions with simulation. •    Participate in design reviews and leverage opportunities to extend simulation capabilities across the Vocational enterprise. Support digital manufacturing initiatives and validation of new technologies before deployment in the factories. •    Apply project management skills (schedule, cost, communications) and coordination of internal resources to align execution of capacity uplift projects in a timely and cost-effective manner. •    Strong knowledge in applying factory simulation tools &amp; optimizing factory designs through process and traffic flow. •    Use statistical methodologies to analyze data and proposed concepts.MINIMUM QUALIFICATIONS •    B.S. Industrial or Manufacturing Engineering and 5+ years related experience.  STANDOUT QUALIFICATIONS •    Excellent communication skills. •    Experience with Flex Sim, Plant Sim, Simio, Arena, Auto MoD, Simul8 or similar software platform. •    Demonstrated ability to participate in or lead initiatives through a cross-functional team. •    Project management experience, including the ability to manage a project by delivering scope, cost and schedule. •    Capable of working in a collaborative and team focused environment. •    Demonstrated understanding of manufacturing processes – cutting, bending, machining, welding, coating, assembly. •    Able to evaluate processes based on lean principles.  •    Proficient in layout optimizing software, and simulation software. •    Time management and problem-solving skills.<ul><li>#LI-KM1</li></ul>Pay Range:$91,800.00 - $153,200.00<div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div>The above pay range reflects the minimum and maximum target pay for the position across all U.S. locations.
