# Manufacturing Engineer
Manufacturing engineers design manufacturing processes for different kinds of production processes. They integrate those specificities and constraints posed by the industry or the product being produced with general and wide-spread manufacturing engineering principles into the design and planification of manufacturing processes.
## Core workflow
1. Apply continuous improvement methods, such as lean manufacturing, to enhance manufacturing quality, reliability, or cost-effectiveness.
2. Design layout of equipment or workspaces to achieve maximum efficiency.
3. Communicate manufacturing capabilities, production schedules, or other information to facilitate production processes.
4. Design, install, or troubleshoot manufacturing equipment.
5. Estimate costs, production times, or staffing requirements for new designs.
6. Evaluate manufactured products according to specifications and quality standards.
7. Investigate or resolve operational problems, such as material use variances or bottlenecks.
8. Prepare documentation for new manufacturing processes or engineering procedures.
