Industrial Engineer

🚀 Optimize How We Build, Pack, and Ship at Scale

📍 Role: Industrial Engineer
📍Company: Coastal Trading Ventures
📍 Location: Dallas-Fort Worth, TX (Warehouse, Onsite)
Coastal Trading Ventures is a high-growth eCommerce fulfillment operation powered by smart systems and a team that takes operational excellence seriously. We're investing in the infrastructure, technology, and people that will define how we scale and this role is an important part of that work.

We're not just moving products, we're building the infrastructure behind one of the fastest-growing Amazon operations in the country. We're looking for an Industrial Engineer to own the efficiency of our warehouse operations: eliminating waste, setting labor standards, and redesigning workflows across an 8,000+ SKU fulfillment environment.

If you want to see your work translate directly into P&L impact - fewer wasted steps, lower cost-per-unit, faster throughput, we'd love to meet you.

🎯 What You'll Be Doing

• Identify and eliminate non-value-added activities across all warehouse zones
• Conduct floor-level time-and-motion studies to establish baseline labor standards and standardized work procedures
• Analyze high-volume kitting and assembly workflows to break through labor bottlenecks in manual packaging (shrink-wrapping, boxing, bundling)
• Optimize line-balancing, ergonomics, and component presentation to minimize operator reach, wait, and walk time across 8,000+ SKUs
• Redesign pack stations, slotting logic, and pick paths to reduce travel time and eliminate unnecessary forklift and pedestrian movement
• Map physical labor flow against our digital systems (WMS) to identify gaps where software limitations force manual workarounds
• Build poka-yoke (error-proofing) guardrails to ensure inventory flows without manual intervention or rework
• Partner with Operations leadership to measure and report cost-savings metrics, translating physical efficiency gains into lower operational labor cost-per-unit

✅ What You Bring

• Bachelor's degree in Industrial Engineering or related engineering discipline
• Lean Six Sigma certification (Green Belt minimum; Black Belt or Master Black Belt preferred)
• 5+ years of experience in process optimization and continuous improvement
• Proven hands-on experience in e-commerce fulfillment, 3PL, or high-volume manual assembly environments (kitting, bundling, packaging)
• Highly analytical with the ability to translate raw data into actionable strategies
• Strong root cause analysis skills and a track record of resolving bottlenecks through structural and layout improvements
• Comfortable on the warehouse floor. This is not a desk-only role
