Manufacturing Process Engineer South Pittsburg, TN (On-site) We got our start over 125 years ago when Joseph Lodge founded the Blacklock Foundry in South Pittsburg, TN. His scrappy, hardworking spirit continues to lead us today. As a team, we believe cast iron is for everyone. We’re dedicated to manufacturing American-made cookware that we’re proud to use in our very own homes and excited to bring to kitchens, backyards, and campfires around the world. Day in and day out, we work together to stay safe, have fun, and be better than we were the day before. WHAT FIRES US UP? By now, you may have caught on to the fact that we’re serious about spreading the joys of cast iron. And while we’re always on the lookout for ways to innovate, we believe in the adage: If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. That’s why we stand by a simple recipe of just iron and oil (no forever chemicals, since forever!). It’s also why we’re passionate about keeping our campus in our hometown of South Pittsburg, Tennessee, providing great jobs to our community. As we bring our cookware to the next generation of cast iron chefs, we’re looking for people to help us stay true to our roots every step of the way. Does that sound like something you can get behind? A DAY IN THE LIFE Reporting to the Director of Engineering Services, the Manufacturing Process Engineer will spend time where the work happens—on the plant floor, in conversations with operators and maintenance, and at your desk making sense of what you’ve observed. Some days call for diagnosing a recurring bottleneck; others involve working through a proposed line change with colleagues or preparing for an equipment trial. The role moves between immediate production needs and longer-term improvements, so you’ll need to understand how a change in one step affects the rest of the process. You’ll see your ideas tested in real production and refine them with the people who use the process every day. THE IDEAL CANDIDATE: You’re curious about why a process works the way it does and willing to ask questions before proposing a fix. You listen to operators, explain your reasoning plainly, and bring people with different priorities toward a workable decision. You can move from an initial observation to a disciplined investigation, and you know when a practical improvement is ready to try. You follow through after implementation, learn from what happens on the floor, and take satisfaction in making work safer, more reliable, and easier to repeat. RESPONSIBILITIES:
