Process Engineer - Rapidly Growing Local Business!

Who We Are

TruCut Incorporated is the leading supplier of out-of-production and low-volume service parts for the HVAC industry. We specialize in offering a complete solution for manufacturing, warehousing, and distribution on behalf of our OEM customers. With over 55 years of industry experience, we continue to evolve as a modern company in order to meet the ever-changing needs of our customers and to be a desirable place to work.

Today, TruCut brings together over 100 unique and talented people every day to operate 3 manufacturing facilities located in Salem and Sebring, Ohio and 1 distribution center in Alliance, Ohio. We take great pride in operating as an ISO 9001:2015 certified business. We also empower our people with Open Book Management and aim to have a lot of fun playing The Great Game of Business.

Right now, we are looking to bolster our team by adding several individuals who can join our Engineering department and help to drive strategic growth within our industry.

Types of things you’ll be doing

As a Process Engineer, you’ll need to learn the intricacies of our unique approach to low volume manufacturing and how that integrates with our customer’s needs. You will play a key role in developing manufacturing processes for new products and assisting in continuous process improvement for legacy products. In addition to developing processes, you will likely become involved with our estimating process. Our customer’s demand quick turn for estimates and we must remain agile and cross-trained to meet their needs.

When not performing the above functions, you will work with our production teams to make any necessary changes to improve the manufacturing process to be more efficient and cost effective. We are constantly onboarding new parts and assemblies and you will play a critical role in making sure the processes are developed in a way that ensures profitability and that we can delight our customers with lead-time. If you’re an impatient person or are motivated by quick fixes, then you should look elsewhere.

A strong background and working knowledge of all MS Office products along with experience using an ERP software as well as CAD software should help to ensure success! This position may have you traveling a couple of times a year to customer facilities, thus willingness to travel is a must!

Types of things you won’t be doing.

You won’t be working half days and you won’t have your feet up on the desk with the chair kicked back primarily because our safety manager won’t let you! We also don’t do design work so don’t get your hopes up on doing that. But you will enjoy working with all of your teammates and eating donuts on Fridays!

How we define success in this role.

You should take pride in “getting the job done.” It is easily noticed when someone has a modus operandi of action with results. You’ll be successful if you are able to get your work completed on time and work closely with your teammates to make sure everything is completed. Attitude is everything. Nothing will cause you to fail in this role faster than a poor attitude.

What we’d like from you.

This is a role that will allow us to go several directions. Ideally, we’d prefer that you have a bachelor's degree in engineering with 3+ years in a Process Engineering capacity. We will consider new grads as well! No degree? Real world experience with proven results works fine, too. If you really want to impress us and jump to the front of the line, then the bulk of your experience should be in manufacturing.

What you’ll get in return.

If you are one of the individuals that ultimately ends up filling one of these positions then we’ll compensate you within a salary of $60,000 – $95,000 (if you think you can command more, sell us on it!). We also provide a full suite of medical, dental, and vision insurances. Several supplemental policies are available as well. You can participate in our 401k with 4% match. We also offer a gainsharing program where you can earn up to a 15% bonus if the company achieves its annual financial goals. You’ll automatically get a $25,000 company-funded life insurance policy as well. We pay for you to stay home on 8 holidays (9 if you’re a veteran) and have paid time off as well. Should you decide you want to continue your education and it is in a discipline that would benefit the company then we also have a tuition reimbursement program. In addition to all of that we also offer a very safe, clean, and stable work environment. We’re growing and you’ll have the opportunity to grow with us. We are not a public company and ownership is involved with the day-to-day operations so bureaucracy is thin and you will be recognized for your achievements.

Who are your coworkers?

We’re down-to-earth people. We work hard to the best of our abilities and try to learn new things when that isn’t enough. You count on your peers as much as they count on you to make sure a job gets done. We don’t hide from a challenge or dodge responsibilities. Those that do don’t last long. We make mistakes just like you will and when we recognize them, we own it, fix it and move on. Pontificators, blowhards, and showboats don’t do well in this organization.

When not at work most of our coworkers have families and enjoy a diverse spectrum of hobbies. You’ll find musicians, hunters, travelers, avid DIYers, coaches, civil servants, gamers, artists, home brewers, board game sharks, dancers, and more.

Does this sound like it could be a fit for you? If so, we’d welcome your resume along with anything else that you think would be beneficial for the hiring manager to know.
