What you'll do
- Develop and maintain methods, operating sequences, and processes in the fabrication of parts, components, subassemblies, and final assemblies.
- Coordinate the release of product improvements and new products across engineering functions, managing manufacturing engineering projects as needed.
- Lead the team in using design for excellence (DFx) principles to estimate and reduce manufacturing and product costs while improving quality.
- Determine time standards and provide recommendations for tooling and process requirements.
- Develop test procedures, evaluate test results, and assess work methods, procedures, and policies.
- Determine root causes and corrective actions for issues arising during assembly or system testing, and perform Process Failure Mode & Effects Analysis (PFMEA).
- Mentor and train junior-level engineers.
What you'll need
