Industrial Engineer Jobs in California

Industrial Engineers in the manufacturing engineering industry play a crucial role in designing efficient systems that integrate workers, machines, materials, information, and energy to create a product or provide a service. They use principles and methods of engineering analysis and design to specify, predict, and evaluate the results they achieve from such systems. They are often responsible for quality control, statistical process control, productivity improvement, material handling, and operations planning.

Important skills for Industrial engineers include strong analytical skills, critical thinking, and problem-solving abilities. Knowledge of computer-aided design (CAD) technology, as well as an understanding of systems and processes, is essential. They should be certified in Six Sigma, Lean Manufacturing, or a similar certification. Furthermore, a bachelor's degree in Industrial Engineering or a related field is typically required. Prior to becoming an Industrial Engineer, a person may work as a Manufacturing Engineer, Process Engineer, or Quality Engineer.
