Manufacturing Engineer Electronic & Electromechanical Products

Senior Manufacturing Engineer – – Electronic & Electromechanical Products

Salary: £55,000 to £65,000 basic + benefits

Working Hours:
Typically, 7:00am – 3:30pm

We’re working with an established technology business that designs and manufactures sophisticated, high-value electronic and electromechanical products used by customers across global markets.

As the business continues to develop and introduce new products, they’re looking for a Manufacturing Engineer to take a broad, hands-on role across New Product Introduction, production support and continuous improvement
.

This is an opportunity for someone who enjoys working closely with design, production and supply chain teams and wants genuine ownership across the manufacturing lifecycle.

You’ll be involved across a number of NPI projects at different stages, helping take products from initial prototypes through to a robust, repeatable manufacturing process.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Supporting NPI from a manufacturing perspective
  , including initial SOPs, first prototypes and technical discussions with design engineering.
• Developing and maintaining manufacturing documentation, including BOMs, routings, work instructions and inspection requirements
  .
• Defining manufacturing processes and cycle times and helping ensure products are ready for production.
• Supporting line layouts, tooling, equipment requirements and cell headcount planning
  .
• Providing hands‑on engineering support to production, resolving manufacturing issues and identifying opportunities to improve yield, quality and efficiency.
• Driving continuous improvement and Lean initiatives across manufacturing processes.
• Supporting engineering changes and ongoing product maintenance.
• Working with suppliers and supply chain teams to investigate and resolve material quality issues
  .
• Working across a high number of product variants, adapting manufacturing processes to suit a low‑to‑medium volume, high‑value production environment.

We’re interested in Manufacturing Engineers who can demonstrate:

• Strong experience in Manufacturing Engineering within an NPI environment
  .
• Experience working with electronic or electromechanical products
  , ideally within a technology, electronics or advanced manufacturing environment.
• Experience supporting low‑to‑medium volume, high‑value products where there are multiple product variants.
• A good understanding of manufacturing processes, BOMs, routings, work instructions and production documentation.
• Experience with Lean Manufacturing and continuous improvement methodologies
  .
• Strong structured problem‑solving skills and the ability to investigate production and quality issues.
• Experience working collaboratively with Design Engineering, Production, Supply Chain and suppliers
  .

This is a broad Manufacturing Engineering position rather than a role focused on just one area. You’ll have exposure to the full manufacturing lifecycle, from early‑stage NPI and prototyping through to production support, continuous improvement and supplier quality
.

There are currently around 10 NPI projects at different stages of development
, providing the opportunity to become involved in a variety of new products and technologies over the coming years.

If you’re a Manufacturing Engineer who enjoys solving problems, improving processes and working closely with engineering and production teams, this could be an excellent opportunity to make a real impact.
