Operations Development Engineer
Job description
Your role and responsibilities
ABB's Drive Products Division is establishing a new, modern Regional Distribution Center (RDC) in Genk, Belgium. The RDC will operate in close collaboration with a 3rd Party Logistics (3PL) partner, and we are now looking for a Production Development Engineer to support our new location.
In this role, you will drive operational excellence by developing, optimizing, and standardizing processes across production, logistics, and supporting functions. You will collaborate closely with internal stakeholders as well as our 3PL partner to secure smooth end-to-end flows and to support the implementation of new tools, methodologies, and best practices.
You will play an essential role in the continuous development of our order-to-delivery processes and in strengthening the performance and efficiency of the RDC.
You will be mainly accountable for:
Identifying improvement opportunities across operational processes (production, material flow, warehousing, inbound and outbound logistics) and leading development initiatives from concept to implementation.
Supporting change management activities, including training, communication, and enabling successful adoption of new processes, systems, and tools.
Analyzing current performance, mapping existing processes, and designing future-state workflows aimed at reducing waste, increasing efficiency, and improving throughput.
Tracking, analyzing, and visualizing operational KPIs-including delivery performance, lead time, inventory accuracy, productivity, and safety metrics-to support data-driven decision making.
Translating operational data and insights into clear, actionable improvement plans that help strengthen daily execution.
Contributing to the implementation, optimization, and continuous development of operational systems (e.g., ERP, MES, WMS) to ensure that processes and data flows support evolving business needs.
We value people from different backgrounds. Could this be your story? Apply today or visit Show website to read more about us and learn about the impact of our solutions across the globe. #RunsWhatRunstheWorld
