Senior Advanced Manufacturing Engineer

Location:

Brampton, Ontario | On-site, with travel to other plants, customers and suppliers
Job Type:  Full-time, Permanent
About The Company
Matcor-Matsu Group is a fully integrated supplier of engineering and manufacturing services for automotive OEM customers. We specialize in complex assemblies and stampings for body-in-white, interior, and seating applications.
With manufacturing and technology facilities across Canada, the United States, and Mexico, our team supports the fast-paced automotive industry through advanced engineering, metal stamping, welding, and assembly capabilities.
About the Role
We are looking for a  Senior Advanced Manufacturing Engineer  to join our team in Brampton, Ontario.
This role serves as a technical bridge between Commercial and Manufacturing Engineering, taking customer RFQs from initial review through the development of a complete manufacturing concept. This includes process flow, cell layout, tooling and capital equipment requirements, cycle times, capacity analysis, and cost estimates.
The successful candidate will also lead continuous improvement initiatives across our manufacturing locations, helping standardize best practices and deliver measurable improvements in cost, throughput, quality, and operational efficiency.
This is an excellent opportunity for someone with experience in applications engineering, automation integration, equipment building, or advanced manufacturing who wants to take ownership of manufacturing solutions from quote through production.
Key Resonsibilities
Review customer RFQ packages, including part drawings, CAD data, GD&T, production volumes, and customer specifications to assess manufacturing feasibility and risk.
Develop detailed cost estimates covering capital equipment, tooling, fixtures, automation, labour, floor space, and overhead.
Obtain and evaluate quotations from tooling suppliers, automation integrators, and equipment manufacturers.
Support technical quote reviews and pricing discussions with Commercial and Finance teams.
Define capital requirements for new programs, including presses, robotic welding cells, conveyors, vision systems, end-of-arm tooling, and error-proofing solutions.
Develop tooling and equipment specifications and review supplier concepts, layouts, and designs.
Conduct cycle time studies and line balancing for manual, semi-automated, and fully automated manufacturing processes.
Perform robot reach and timing simulations using tools such as Process Simulate or Robo Guide, where required.
Validate manufacturing capacity based on customer volumes, OEE targets, and shift patterns.
Develop process flow diagrams, PFMEAs, manufacturing layouts, and overall manufacturing concepts.
Determine the appropriate level of automation based on production volume, investment, quality, and flexibility requirements.
Provide Design for Manufacturing (DFM) and Design for Assembly (DFA) input during early program development.
Lead continuous improvement initiatives focused on OEE, cycle time, scrap reduction, changeover time, labour productivity, and capital utilization.
Facilitate kaizen events, value stream mapping, and structured problem-solving using methodologies such as 8D, 5-Why, and DMAIC.
Benchmark processes and performance across manufacturing locations and support the implementation of best practices and standardized work.
Develop business cases and capital justifications for improvement projects and track resulting savings.
Present technical manufacturing concepts to automotive OEM and Tier 1 customers.
Work cross-functionally with Program Management, Quality, Operations, Finance, Manufacturing Engineering, and plant leadership.
