About the role
- Analyse operational and technological requirements to define optimal warehousing and logistics solutions, balancing customer service, cost, and space utilisation.
- Design and adapt warehouse and automation concepts (e.g. storage media, material-handling systems, MHE, racking layouts, and process flows) to meet operational requirements and safety standards.
- Develop and validate design models using AutoCAD and analytical tools, ensuring feasibility, performance, and alignment with customer specifications and CEVA standards.
- Undertake detailed data analysis and commercial modelling to quantify labour, equipment, and facility costs, validating assumptions and supporting investment or tender recommendations.
- Perform solution testing and sensitivity analysis through scenario modelling, throughput simulations, or pilot trials to confirm performance, efficiency, and cost assumptions.
- Prepare design documentation, cost models, and technical presentations to support business development and customer proposals (RFIs, RFPs, RFQs).
- Collaborate with operations and cross-functional teams (e.g. IT, BPE, Finance) to validate practical implementation of designs and assess post-implementation performance.
- Identify and recommend process or technology improvements, drawing on applied engineering principles, data insights, and lessons from implemented projects.
- Contribute to continuous improvement and standardisation of CEVA’s Solution Design methodology, tools, and templates to enhance design accuracy and efficiency.
- Support capability development of Solution Design Analysts through guidance on design logic, costing, and modelling techniques.
- Ensure compliance with CEVA’s quality, safety, and sustainability standards in all design and implementation activities.
