Employer immigration record

from this employer's Department of Labor filings

Files H-1B transfers

8 transfer filings in the last year, covering 8 workers. Median labor-condition decision: 7 days. An employer that already files transfers is one that can take over an existing H-1B.

Sourced from Department of Labor LCA, PERM and prevailing-wage disclosure data. Employer matching is by name, so figures may be split across an employer's legal entities. Absence of a filing means none appears in our copy of the data, not that none exists.

About the role

  • Big, hard problems are what Path tackles every day and our people are our greatest asset to get that job done.
  • This role reports to the Director of Manufacturing Operations.
  • We encourage unique thinking and are dedicated to creating a diverse and inclusive environment.

Responsibilities

  • Lead production layout planning for our new buildings, from initial concept through move-in, including process flow, material flow, workstation design, storage strategy, utilities, equipment placement and traffic patterns for both material and people
  • Partner with supply chain and build leadership to develop layouts that support today's volume and planned growth
  • Plan and manage the transition of production into new space with minimal disruption to build schedules
  • Design intra-factory material flow from receiving and storage through kitting, line-side delivery, WIP movement and shipment of finished cells, so flow is built into the new buildings from the start rather than added later
  • Map current-state and future-state value streams across build, kitting and test, and use the data, along with simulation where it helps, to drive prioritized improvements on the floor
  • Lead continuous improvement events (kaizen, 5S, standard work) that reduce lead time, WIP, rework and cost
  • Build takt time, line balancing and capacity models to size workstations, staffing and floor space
  • Identify and resolve flow imbalances caused by inventory processes, layouts, part shortages or staffing constraints, and drive fixes with Supply Chain, Quality and design engineering
  • Develop standard work, work instructions and visual management with technicians and supervisors on the floor
  • Design fixtures, tooling and material presentation (kanban, point-of-use storage) that improve flow and ergonomics

Requirements

  • Bachelor's degree in Manufacturing, Industrial or Mechanical Engineering, or a related field
  • 7+ years of manufacturing engineering experience in a production environment, ideally low-volume, high-mix assembly of complex electromechanical equipment, machinery or automation systems

  • Experience supporting new products from introduction through production ramp
  • Must be local to Columbus, Ohio or willing to relocate
  • Ability to lift up to 50 lbs occasionally
  • PPE is required in designated areas

Nice to have
