About Jacob Stearns
Versatile manufacturing engineer as interested in your profit and loss statement as a root cause analysis. Experienced in leading teams to apply engineering problem solving to operational business decisions. I thrive in improving manufacturing excellence through yield improvement, reliability work processes, operational efficiencies, or other process optimization. With experience ranging from technical aerospace manufacturing to fast paced packaging production, I've developed the ability to effectively analyze whatever variables are at hand and create innovative solutions. Combining data analysis (OEE tracking/improvement, root cause analysis, and statistics/probability) with leadership experience (training, public speaking, program management, and process flow mapping) allows me to apply proven principles to capitalize on opportunities and challenges. Repeated application of this process in various situations enables me to set long term objectives and then implement the necessary detailed strategies to accomplish them.
