• Prepare and process Engineering Change Orders (ECOs) related to corrective actions, drawing updates, tooling modifications, and process improvements.

• Analyze manufacturing and quality data to identify trends, risks, and opportunities for process improvement.

• Collaborate cross-functionally with production, quality, supply chain, and engineering teams to resolve issues and enhance manufacturing processes.

• Participate in continuous improvement initiatives aimed at reducing defects and improving process stability.

• Develop and maintain technical documentation, reports, and work instructions to support investigations, corrective actions, and process updates.

What You Bring....

• At least 3 years experience in manufacturing, mechanical, or quality engineering.

• Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, or related field from an ABET-accredited program.

• Strong understanding of GD&T (ASME Y14.5) and ability to interpret engineering drawings and specifications.

• Experience with structured problem-solving methods and root cause analysis.

• Exposure to manufacturing processes such as machining, welding, heat treating, testing, inspection, or similar processes preferred.

• Working knowledge of Lean manufacturing, Six Sigma concepts, and basic statistical analysis.

• Strong analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills with the ability to work in cross-functional teams.

• Self-motivated with a strong desire to learn and grow in a manufacturing engineering environment.

• Strong communication skills with the ability to engage and collaborate with production operators, engineers, and leadership.
