Description
This engineer is our first line of defense on the Imaging production floor. Embedded on the line, they keep hardware moving by rapidly troubleshooting in-line issues, driving down downtime, and resolving the technical and process problems that stand between us and shipping product.
This is a hands-on, floor-dedicated sustaining role focused on the assembly, integration, and test of discrete electromechanical and optomechanical systems.
As a Manufacturing Engineer, you will be responsible for:
- First Line of Defense: Embed on the production floor to rapidly respond to, diagnose, and resolve in-line production issues across assembly, integration, and test , keeping downtime to an absolute minimum.
- Downtime & Ticket Management: Own the response process when the line goes down. Triage, drive, and close production downtime & non-conformance issues, coordinating engineering, maintenance, quality, and supply chain to restore flow quickly.
- Digital Line Operations: Handle the essential digital administration of the line. Own the day-to-day updates and troubleshooting within our ERP and MES (Manufacturing Execution Systems) to ensure accurate production tracking, data integrity, and inventory flow.
- Root Cause & Debugging: Perform rapid debugging, testing, and root-cause analysis (RCA) on failing hardware and processes. Implement containment, drive corrective and preventive actions, and escalate systemic issues to the design and quality teams.
- Floor Collaboration: Partner hands-on with technicians and assemblers every day, capturing assembly friction points and feeding improvements back into process and design.
- Documentation & Training: Create, update, and maintain clear, accurate work instructions, SOPs, and rework procedures so the floor always runs to the current standard. Ensure ECO/ECN change implementations are managed and executed on the production floor correctly and on time.
- Continuous Improvement: Analyze line data to surface recurring failures and bottlenecks, and drive incremental improvements to yield, throughput, and first-pass quality.
We are looking for a highly skilled and experienced Manufacturing Engineer to join our team. The ideal candidate will have a degree in a technical field such as mechanical, electrical, systems, or industrial engineering, or a related hard science.
The successful candidate will have at least 5 years of hands-on experience supporting an active production line , in manufacturing, production, process, sustainment, or industrial engineering.
They will also have demonstrated, hands-on experience troubleshooting, testing, and assembling electromechanical hardware in a live production environment.
Additionally, the candidate will have demonstrated experience utilizing and managing data within MES (Manufacturing Execution Systems) and ERP platforms to track yields, routing, and inventory.
Eligibility to obtain and maintain an active U.S. Secret security clearance is required.
The salary range for this role is $129,000-$171,000 USD.
