Job Description

Senior Chemical Process Engineer

Location: On-site, Caledonia, MI

Industry: Advanced Manufacturing, Industrial Engineering

Our client is seeking a hands-on Senior Chemical Process Engineer to lead and continuously improve an entire material application process. This is a highly impactful role where engineering expertise meets real-time production needs, with a clear focus on process standardization, optimization, and operational excellence.

Projects You'll Work On

  • Own and evolve the material mixing, storage, and application production processes with a focus on safety, quality, stability, and throughput
  • Design and implement standardized processes that drive efficiency and consistency across all production lines
  • Collaborate on innovative process improvements , including automation of changeovers and conveyor sequencing
  • Develop and implement a robust preventative maintenance strategy with internal teams and external vendors
  • Create detailed process documentation: SOPs, Process Flow Diagrams, Control Plans, PFMEAs, and more
  • Partner with the Quality team to build and maintain comprehensive control plans and define inspection protocols
  • Utilize real-time SPC tools to monitor performance, detect deviations, and implement corrective actions
  • Work directly with materials suppliers to understand material characteristics and their influence on production outcomes
  • Drive root cause analysis efforts and lead continuous improvement projects
  • Act as the central liaison between the production floor, maintenance, engineering, and external contractors

What Experience You Should Bring

  • Bachelor’s degree in Engineering (Mechanical, Chemical, or Electrical preferred), or equivalent experience (8–10 years in a related field)
  • Proven experience in process engineering within a high-volume manufacturing environment, preferably in liquid materials
  • Solid understanding of Six Sigma, statistical analysis, and process control methodologies
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with a track record of identifying and resolving production inefficiencies
  • Comfortable working hands-on in a unionized production environment
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with an ability to influence across levels and functions
  • Demonstrated ability to lead cross-functional teams without direct authority

Why This Role Stands Out

  • Make an immediate impact by owning a critical production process
  • Be part of an organization that values technical innovation, process excellence, and continuous improvement
  • Collaborate across multiple departments and take part in both tactical operations and strategic initiatives
  • Drive real results in quality, uptime, and throughput while shaping future developments in equipment and materials
