Manufacturing Engineers develop and improve manufacturing processes by studying products and manufacturing methods. They provide engineering and manufacturing support expertise to enable on-time, lowest cost hardware delivery with performance and reliability that exceed customer expectations. They execute across all phases of a program including proposal capture, process development, transition to production, and production support. Manufacturing Engineers design, control, and improve the manufacturing process and associated documentation/instructions through a collaborative effort with the value stream team. You would apply your experience and skills to implement improvements that reduce cycle time and cost and improve productivity, while maintaining a high level of safety in the manufacturing environment and quality within the product.

What You Will Do

• Working and interacting across functions such as Operations, Quality, and Test to ensure operators understand requirements and production processes are accurate and executable

• Facilitating Work In Process (WIP) flow of hardware by reviewing and dispositioning material, performing engineering inspections, and creating rework/repair routers/instructions

• Updating Manufacturing Data Packages (MDP) to incorporate process improvements, design changes/updates, new processing equipment, new or modified assembly tooling/fixturing, and other methodization changes

• Generating new MDP’s for existing production and new programs.  Includes engagement with design/re-design efforts and participation in Design For Manufacturing & Assembly (DFMA) tasks as required

• Enabling Continuous Improvement through methods/process changes, tool and fixture development, automation and other innovation initiatives to improve cost, cycle time, quality, and safety

• Driving resolution of TDP to MDP errors and/or discrepancies by submitting engineering Change Requests (CR) and documenting problem resolution and resulting actions

Qualifications You Must Have

• Typically Requires a Bachelor's degree in Science, Technology, Engineering or Math (STEM) and minimum 0-2 years of relevant experience.
