About Shane McKenzie

Having worked in manufacturing as an Engineer and a Manager for 15+ years I have the experience, knowledge, and skills to drive bottom line results through technical team leadership, project management, and lean tools. I am an Engineer with extensive experience in Project Management, Product Development, Engineering Management, Lean Manufacturing, Manufacturing Management, and Automated Assembly Systems. My most recent position and others were eliminated due to a staff reduction by a new plant manager which has opened up the opportunity for me to explore new companies that offer an environment where I can put my skills and experience to work to solve challenging problems, implement innovative solutions, develop processes, and lead professional teams that deliver bottom-line results. I am in a great position to relocate anywhere that offers a challenging opportunity with a great company.I have a strong track record of delivering on-time, on-budget projects which positively impact KPIs. I have built strong technical teams from the ground up during a new plant startup as well as developed and mentored existing teams to be more productive and successful. My experience in the automotive, plastics, composites, fiberglass, and transformer manufacturing industries combine with advanced skills in Process Development, Lean Manufacturing, Automated Assembly, and Project Management gives me an excellent platform to quickly bring a positive impact to an organization.Some of my Key Strengths:Engineer Management | Leadership | Manufacturing Management | Project Management | Error/Mistake Proofing | Trouble Shooting | Root Cause Problem Solving | Process Improvement | Lean Manufacturing |Automated Assembly | New Product Introduction | Microsoft Office | Microsoft Project | AutoCAD | Team Development | DFM/DFA | SolidWorks 3D Modeling | 10+ Years Engineering & Technical Team Management | Layout Design/Optimization | ISO9001 / TS16949 | 15+ Years Engineering Project Management | Professional Development / Mentoring
