Manufacturing Engineer - Senior
Description
The Role
We’re looking for a mid to senior level Manufacturing Engineer who wants more than a desk and a spreadsheet. You’ll work side by side with some of the best engineers in the world on front-line products, often before they reach the market. You’ll be customer-facing, the person who turns a brilliant design into something that can be built reliably, repeatedly, and at scale.
This job is for the engineer who wants it all: hands-on troubleshooting on the floor in the morning, design reviews with a customer at lunch, and a pilot line coming to life by the end of the week.
What You’ll Do
- Lead manufacturing engineering for complex electro-mechanical assemblies, from early design input through pilot builds and full production.
- Partner directly with customers, applying DFM, DFA, and DFT principles so their designs are buildable, testable, and cost-effective.
- Develop, validate, and launch new manufacturing processes, then keep improving them through continuous improvement initiatives.
- Lead multiple cross-functional teams at once, and supervise and mentor other engineers and technicians.
- Provide cGMP direction and guidance to operations, especially for medical and other regulated programs.
- Break complex builds into clear work breakdown structures (WBS), and teach others to execute them with confidence.
- Troubleshoot electro-mechanical problems at their root.
- Apply and optimize secondary operations including pad printing, silk screening, ultrasonic welding and inserting, and thermal welding and inserting.
What You Bring
- A B.S. in Mechanical, Electrical, Chemical, Biomedical, or Manufacturing Engineering.
- Strong, proven experience with Design for Manufacturing (DFM), Design for Assembly (DFA), and Design for Test (DFT).
- Excellent electro-mechanical aptitude and troubleshooting instincts.
- Working knowledge of manufacturing secondary operations.
- A track record of leading teams, supervising others, and guiding operations through cGMP requirements.
- Clear, confident verbal and written communication, whether you’re presenting to a customer or training a new operator.
- A real enjoyment of variety: hands-on work, design, process development, pilot manufacturing, and continuous improvement, all in the same role.
Where You Can Go
We don’t just hire engineers. We grow them.
- A clear path up: structured engineering levels that lead all the way to Manufacturing Engineering Manager.
- Room to move: opportunities across our plants and other divisions, so your career can grow in more than one direction.
- Investment in you: ongoing job training and development, backed by a company with significant year-over-year growth.
- Stability you can count on: a debt-free, privately held company with more than a century of staying power and a diverse customer portfolio across five major markets.
