About ISC
Established in 1971, ISC began building custom power cables & assemblies for Gateway, Kingston, and Xerox. With over 50 years of manufacturing experience, ISC is capable of meeting tight deadlines and changing forecasts while maintaining quality. Ourproducts are in use worldwide in commercialandmilitaryaircraft, lifesavingmedicaldevices, weapon systems, inflight entertainment, power systems, and countless commercial, industrial & computer applications. Our facility is environmentally controlled, engineered for manufacturing flexibility, includes dedicated assembly labs for isolated program management, and a cleanroom facility.
With dedicated professionals and assemblers regularly operating two full shifts, ISC operates with the most current high-speed tooling, material handling, and test equipment.
The Manufacturing Engineer is responsible for developing, improving, and maintaining manufacturing processes for complex cable assemblies, wire harnesses, and related products. This role partners closely with Production, Quality, Engineering, and other cross-functional teams to troubleshoot manufacturing issues and ensure processes consistently meet quality, cost, efficiency, and delivery requirements.
This is a highly hands-on role focused on production support, process improvement, automation, tooling, and manufacturing process optimization. The Manufacturing Engineer works closely with production teams to identify opportunities, resolve process issues, and implement practical, sustainable improvements. This role serves as a key technical partner to Production, helping ensure existing products can be manufactured safely, efficiently, consistently, and at the required quality and cost.
WhatYou'll Do:
- Provide day-to-day technical support to Production, troubleshooting process, equipment, tooling, and manufacturing issues and implementing practical, sustainable solutions.
- Develop, document, and improve manufacturing processes for cable assemblies, wire harnesses, and related products.
- Analyze existing manufacturing processes andidentifyopportunities to improve quality, yield, efficiency, throughput, safety, and cost.
- Work directly with Production teams to investigate manufacturing issues,identify root causes, and implement effective corrective actions.
- Create andmaintainmanufacturing documentation, including work instructions, process specifications, routings, and other production documentation.
- Review engineering drawings, specifications, BOMs, and other technical documentation to ensure products can be manufactured effectively and consistently.
- Evaluate and support the implementation of tooling, fixtures, equipment, and automation improvements to improve safety, quality, efficiency, and production capacity.
- Support process validation and qualification activities for existing and modified manufacturing processes.
- Partner with Quality Engineering to investigate defects, perform root cause analysis, and implement corrective and preventive actions.
- Lead or support continuous improvement initiatives using Lean Manufacturing, Six Sigma, 5S, and other process improvement methodologies.
- Analyze manufacturing data, metrics, and trends toidentifyopportunities for process improvement, waste reduction, and increased production efficiency.
- Work with Engineering and Production to evaluate design-for-manufacturability considerations andidentifyopportunities to improvemanufacturabilityof existing products.
- Support engineering changes and ensure manufacturing processes, documentation, BOMs, routings, and other production information are updated accordingly.
- Train and support production personnel on new or updated processes, work instructions, tooling, and equipment.
- Work with ERP/MRP systems tomaintainaccuratemanufacturing information,routings, BOMs, and other production data.
- Evaluate manufacturing processes and equipment for safety and ergonomic risks and support improvements that promote safe and effective production.
- Participate in cross-functional projects and other initiatives as needed.
Qualifications:
- Bachelor's degree in Manufacturing Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Industrial Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent combination of education and hands-on experience.
- 3+ years of manufacturing engineering experience, preferably in an environment involving complex assemblies, electromechanical products, cable assemblies, wire harnesses, orsimilar products.
- Experience developing, documenting, troubleshooting, and improving manufacturing processes.
- Strong ability to troubleshoot manufacturing problems,identify root causes, and implement practical, sustainable solutions.
- Ability to read and interpret engineering drawings, specifications, BOMs, and other technical documentation.
- Experience working directly with Production teams in a manufacturing environment.
- Familiarity with Lean Manufacturing and continuous improvement principles.
- Experience with ERP/MRP systems and manufacturing documentation.
