Manufacturing Engineer - Machined Components

Be visionary Teledyne Technologies Incorporated provides enabling technologies for industrial growth markets that require advanced technology and high reliability. These markets include aerospace and defense, factory automation, air and water quality environmental monitoring, electronics design and development, oceanographic research, deepwater oil and gas exploration and production, medical imaging and pharmaceutical research. We are looking for individuals who thrive on making an impact and want the excitement of being on a team that wins.

Teledyne Marine is a group of leading‑edge undersea technology companies that have been assembled by Teledyne Technologies Incorporated. Through acquisitions and collaboration, over the past 10 years Teledyne Marine has evolved into an industry powerhouse, bringing the best of the best together under a single umbrella. With technologies divided into five core segments—Imaging, Instruments, Interconnect, Seismic and Vehicles—Teledyne Marine sales staff can address not only brand‑level solutions, but turnkey, customized systems that leverage our full range of technology.

Our goal is to provide one‑stop purchasing capability, worldwide customer support, and technical expertise to solve our customers’ toughest challenges.

The purpose of this position is to develop processes for new product manufacturing, optimize existing processes and products, and support cost reduction initiatives. This role includes significant collaboration with machine shop operations, including CNC machining, fabrication, and precision component manufacturing, to ensure manufacturability, quality, and efficiency of machined parts and assemblies.

• Develop and improve manufacturing processes through research, design, and modification of manufacturing methods and equipment, with a strong focus on CNC milling, turning, grinding, and secondary operations such as deburring and finishing.
• Create and revise documentation for assembly and test processes, including detailed machining work instructions, setup sheets, tooling requirements, and inspection criteria.
• Design and fabricate fixtures and tools for assembly and test processes, machining fixtures, work holding solutions, jigs, and other tooling to support efficient and repeatable machining operations.
• Improve manufacturing efficiencies by analyzing product flow, space requirements, and equipment layout, including machine shop workflow, spindle utilization, tool‑change optimization, and setup reduction (SMED principles).
• Provide input to the design review process for assembly tools, fixtures, test equipment, and HSE considerations, including Design for Manufacturability feedback specific to machining tolerances, material selection, and machining feasibility.
• Continuously improve assembly and test processes using Lean and Six Sigma techniques, as well as machining processes through cycle‑time reduction, scrap reduction, and tooling optimization.
• Identify and implement tools and equipment modifications to increase product throughput and lower cost—including CNC program improvements, cutting‑tool selection, feeds and speeds optimization, and machine capability enhancements.
• Develop and implement training for equipment and processes, and provide training and coaching to technicians, including machinists on setup techniques, blueprint interpretation, GD&T, and machining best practices.
• Assist with failure analysis and problem solving to determine root causes of failures and implement corrective actions, focusing on machining‑related defects such as surface finish issues, dimensional nonconformance, tool wear, and material distortions.
• Participate in Continuous Improvement events utilizing Lean tools, including Kaizen events within machine shop operations.

• BS degree in Engineering preferred—Mechanical, Electrical, Industrial, or Engineering Technology.
• 1–3 years of Manufacturing Engineering experience within a machine shop or assembly environment.
• Demonstrated experience working in or directly supporting machine shop operations, including CNC machining (mills,…
