If you enjoy taking a concept from feasibility → equipment design → supplier development → validation → production launch → continuous improvement
, we want to hear from you!

As a Senior Manufacturing Engineer, you will:

• Lead manufacturing feasibility and Design for Assembly (DFA) reviews for new products, engineering changes, transfers, and capacity expansions.
• Develop manufacturing strategies for complex automotive assemblies, including process flow, assembly sequence, automation level, material flow, inspection, testing, traceability, and error-proofing
  .
• Develop and validate manual, semi-automated, and fully automated assembly processes
  .
• Lead the development and integration of multi-station automated assembly systems
  .
• Work with robotics, automated material handling, machine vision, sensing, controls, inspection, functional testing, and data acquisition
  .
• Develop cycle-time, line-balance, labor, capacity, equipment, layout, and capital requirements.
• Lead RFQs, equipment specifications, technical scopes of work, acceptance criteria, and supplier deliverables
  .
• Manage equipment suppliers through concept, design, build, FAT, installation, SAT, capability studies, run-at-rate, and production handoff
  .
• Lead manufacturing engineering activities during new program launches and major process changes
  , working closely with Engineering, Operations, Quality, Automation, Maintenance, Tooling, Molding, Purchasing, and suppliers.
• Develop and maintain APQP and IATF 16949 documentation
  , including process flows, PFMEAs, control plans, error-proofing plans, work instructions, capability studies, and engineering-change documentation.
• Lead continuous-improvement initiatives focused on automation, equipment reliability, cycle time, labor optimization, quality, capacity, and material flow
  .
• Provide technical leadership, coaching, and mentoring to junior and plant-level Manufacturing Engineers.

• Bachelor's degree in Mechanical, Manufacturing, Mechatronics, Industrial Engineering
  , or a related engineering discipline. Engineering Technology graduates with substantial relevant experience may also be considered.
• 7+ years of progressive Manufacturing Engineering experience
  .
• Experience developing and implementing manufacturing processes for complex assemblies in an automotive manufacturing environment
  .
• Experience in a plastic injection molding production environment is required
  , including knowledge of post-mold handling, automation, and assembly interfaces.
• Experience with complex automated assembly systems involving:
  • Robotics
  • Automated material handling
  • Machine vision and sensing
  • Controls
  • In-process inspection
  • Functional testing
  • Traceability
  • Error-proofing
• Experience developing equipment specifications and RFQs and managing equipment suppliers from concept through production acceptance.
• Strong knowledge of DFM/DFA, APQP, PFMEA, control plans, capability studies, run-at-rate, structured problem solving, and IATF 16949
  .
• Working knowledge of automation controls, robotics, industrial networks, machine safety, and equipment integration
