Ricardo Dip

I’m a Mechanical Engineer with 30 years’ experience in the Automotive Industry, bringing a proven track record in Lean Manufacturing, Process, Productivity, Quality, Continuous Improvement, and Capital Investment.

I’ve worked as a Process Engineering Manager, focusing on mid / small industries and driving results across People, Safety, Quality, Delivery, Costs, Productivity, and Investment—using structured execution like Business Plan Deployment, PDCA, and Problem Solving.

In my recent role, I led process improvement proceses, productivity increase by 15% and expanded capacity through CAPEX initiatives, including Capital & Technology Investment, ROI, Risk & Payback Analysis, and SA Plants integration with the Global Team.

I’m looking for the right opportunity to bring my expertise in a mid-upper management position—strengthening teams through leadership, layered audits, and equipment and supplier development to deliver measurable, sustainable performance.
