Senior Process Engineer About the Role At Marotta Controls, we don't believe manufacturing engineering is simply about maintaining the status quo. We build highly engineered aerospace and defense systems where precision, reliability, and performance matter—and we're looking for a Senior Process Engineer who wants to help transform how those products are built. This is not a traditional Senior Process Engineer role.

At Marotta, our Process Engineers are deeply involved in the entire manufacturing environment. You'll work directly with production teams, develop and improve manufacturing processes, lead Kaizen and continuous improvement initiatives, establish new production cells, introduce automation, improve facility and production infrastructure, and help shape the manufacturing environment of the future. If you see a production problem and immediately start thinking about how to eliminate it, automate it, simplify it, or redesign the process—you'll fit right in.

Key Responsibilities You'll work hands-on with our production teams to understand how products are actually built and identify opportunities to make the process faster, easier, safer, more repeatable, and more cost effective.

Develop, implement, and continuously improve manufacturing processes for complex aerospace and electromechanical products. Reduce production build time, labor content, scrap, rework, and overall cost of production. Design processes that allow technicians to build products efficiently while maintaining the highest levels of quality and workmanship. Develop tooling, fixtures, workstations, assembly aids, and other manufacturing solutions that make the technician's job easier. Identify opportunities to eliminate unnecessary steps, motion, waiting, handling, and other sources of manufacturing waste.

Work directly with technicians and production leadership to understand challenges and develop practical solutions. Build the Factory of the Future Establish and launch new production cells and manufacturing areas. Develop future-state manufacturing concepts and layouts. Introduce automation, semi-automation, robotics, digital manufacturing technologies, and other advanced manufacturing solutions. Evaluate emerging technologies and determine where they can provide meaningful improvements to our operations.

Help transform our production floor into a clean, organized, efficient, technology-driven manufacturing environment.

Participate in facility expansion, equipment installation, production infrastructure, and building-system projects that directly support manufacturing. Lead Continuous Improvement Lead and participate in Kaizen events and cross-functional improvement initiatives. Apply Lean Manufacturing, Six Sigma, root-cause analysis, and other structured problem-solving methodologies. Identify and eliminate process bottlenecks and constraints. Develop and implement standard work and process controls. Establish measurable improvements in productivity, quality, cost, throughput, and lead time.

Use data to identify opportunities and demonstrate the impact of implemented improvements. Take Ownership of Big Projects You may find yourself:
Designing a new production cell. Reconfiguring an entire manufacturing area. Developing an automated assembly process. Selecting and implementing new manufacturing equipment. Developing tooling and fixtures. Improving facility infrastructure supporting production. Supporting the construction and commissioning of new manufacturing space. Developing a strategy to reduce the build time of a complex aerospace assembly. Working with suppliers and integrators to implement new technology.
