Manufacturing Engineer IV - Electrical Engineering Focus

Manufacturing Engineer IV

This position requires that you must be a US Citizen for consideration and meet all Federal Contractor employee requirements. Nomad GCS does not support the H1B Visa for this position.

Position:
Manufacturing Engineer IV Division:
Innovative Solutions Group (ISG) Department:
Manufacturing & Industrial Engineering (Team 4 – electrical engineering focused) Status:
Full-Time

Overview:
Nomad Global Communication Solutions (Nomad GCS) is a leading provider of communication and response products serving a wide variety of customers. Our purpose is to be the solution when every minute matters. We seek a candidate that is self-inspired to learn and demonstrates a high degree of customer service while positively contributing to our team.

The Manufacturing Engineers (MFEs) at Nomad GCS play a crucial role in supporting the engineering and production processes by identifying and planning for the design, process, and tooling challenges that arise during production. MFEs have experience in mechanical or electrical engineering. This position requires electrical engineering experience with strong problem-solving abilities, and a proactive approach to resolving issues. MFEs will collaborate on new projects within the broader engineering scope, including outside their primary areas of expertise.

Being able to learn on-the-fly is required. All solutions must adhere to or exceed Nomad's standards of safety, efficiency, quality, and scalability.

Career Growth:

Manufacturing Engineers at Nomad GCS progress through five levels based on:

• DFM execution and design risk mitigation
• Tooling, fixture, and process architecture
• Change control ownership and impact modeling
• Production issue resolution and prevention
• Manufacturing documentation standardization
• Cross-platform manufacturability improvement
• Production efficiency and cost optimization
• Technical mentorship and leadership

Advancement is supported through hands-on project ownership, cross-functional collaboration, mentorship, and alignment with Nomad's Core Values.

Basic Knowledge Desired – All Levels:

• Design for Manufacturability (DFM) principles and application during digital and physical builds.
• Electrical design fundamentals including low-voltage (12V/24V DC) circuits, high-voltage. (120V/240V AC) circuits, control systems, and power distribution.
• Design and manufacturing principles used in electrical wiring or harnessing production and its installation within industrial equipment and electrical cabinets.
• Tooling and fixture design concepts for repeatability, safety, and production efficiency.
• Raw material or component selection, fabrication methods, and production cost considerations.
• Interpretation and creation of precision technical drawings and digital models.
• CAD proficiency (Solid Works Electrical or equivalent) including modeling, drawing release, and file management.
• ERP systems and change control processes (CR/CO workflow).
• Standard manufacturing documentation practices and revision control.
• Root cause analysis and structured problem-solving methods.
• Competency in business and engineering software (MS Office: Word, Excel, PowerPoint).
• Hands-on experience with electrical hand tools (crimping, stripping, soldering), test equipment (multimeter, oscilloscope).
• IPC/WHMA-A-620 or equivalent knowledge or training.
• Ability to communicate effectively between Engineering and Production teams.
• Demonstrated alignment with Nomad Core Values.

Core Responsibilities – All Levels:

• Review designs for manufacturability (DFM) during digital design and physical construction.
• Use software (Solid Works Electrical) to create/edit designs to be used in final production.
• Advise Engineering on consistent documentation for DFM Acts as a bridge between mechanical design and electrical/IT requirements by working with designers early to identify and mitigate issues, managing major SPN concerns before design freeze, and ensuring critical provisions such as wiring, pass-throughs, interfaces, bulkheads, waterproofing, and IT infrastructure needs are incorporated before mid-build integration challenges arise.
• Collaborate with Mechanical Engineering on design inputs from an electrical…
