    Job Description

    Nordson Measurement & Control, a global leader in Measurement & Control, is seeking an experienced and highly motivated individual to join our team. We are committed to creating a diverse and inclusive workplace, and we are looking for candidates who share that same commitment.

    Summary of the role

    As a member of our team, you will have the opportunity to work in a dynamic and collaborative environment, where your ideas and contributions will be valued and respected.

    The manufacturing organization requires a focused resource to:

    Develop and maintain Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs).
    Create operator work instructions and visual job aids.
    Document manufacturing process flows and control plans.
    Support engineering changes and document revisions.
    Maintain manufacturing knowledge repositories.
    Ensure documentation compliance with quality management systems.
    Support training and onboarding initiatives.
    Key Business Benefits
    Improved Production Consistency

    Standardized and clearly written work instructions reduce variation between operators, shifts, and production locations. Consistent execution of manufacturing processes helps ensure product quality and repeatability.

    Enhanced Quality and Reduced Defects

    Clear documentation minimizes interpretation errors that can result in scrap, rework, and customer quality issues. A dedicated technical writer helps ensure process updates are accurately reflected in production documentation.

    Increased Manufacturing Productivity

    Manufacturing engineers and supervisors currently spend significant time writing, updating, and formatting documentation. Assigning these responsibilities to a technical writer allows technical resources to focus on process optimization, capacity improvements, and operational performance.

    Faster Training and Onboarding

    Well-structured work instructions, visual aids, and training documents reduce onboarding time for new operators and technicians. Employees become productive more quickly while requiring less supervisor intervention.

    Knowledge Retention

    Critical manufacturing knowledge often resides with experienced operators and engineers. A technical writer captures this expertise and converts it into documented best practices, reducing organizational risk associated with employee turnover.

    Experience Requirements:

    3-5 years of revelant job experience

    Preferred Educational Requriements:

    Bachelor's degree in English, communications, journalism, or a related field
