Electro-Mechanical Manufacturing Engineer

Summary

We are looking for a strong manufacturing engineer to support our dual‑ended x‑ray products. The ideal candidate has a strong hands‑on skill set with a broad range of manufacturing processes, equipment, assembly methods, tooling, lean production, inventory management, and documentation practices with an overarching drive to help production teams make their job better and more efficient. You will expand your hands‑on experience with multiple manufacturing and assembly methods.

You will have exposure to advanced medical x‑ray imaging components and the manufacturing and design challenges associated with managing thermal loads in high‑voltage electro‑mechanical systems within the Medical Device Industry. This role is an on‑the‑production‑floor manufacturing engineer working directly with the production line team, product (continuing engineering), R&D engineering, maintenance, and quality in building medical x‑ray imaging components. If you can handle success and failure with an indomitable spirit, and work through the rigors of existing process improvements – we would love to talk to you!

• Work closely with both an engineering and operations mentor and collaborate with broader product engineering and operations teams in our Dual‑Ended product line.
• Learn X‑Ray safety procedures, the regulations and good manufacturing practice requirements of our business.
• Learn essential processing flow, equipment, and tests performed in the area.
• Support a specific production area to improve product flow, fixtures and tools, work instructions, defect mapping and resolution, and drive continuous improvement and LEAN implementation projects in the area you support.
• Cross‑train with other manufacturing and product engineers on product portfolio, common failure modes, support management and resolution of non‑conformities, and in every way possible – solve daily production challenges and support the product line.
• Support the development and implementation of value‑stream opportunities including outlining requirements, actions, and proposed sequencing to execute an improved value‑stream for products you support.
• Engage in product engineering with various continuing engineering and process engineering functions.
• Document the improvements with approved systems and documentation practices.

• Extensive hands‑on experience with common manufacturing processes and assembly methods (machining, forming, bending, casting, molding, fastening methods, welding, brazing, 3D printing, etc.).
• Working knowledge of metals (steels, copper, refractory), ceramics, and polymers.
• Moderate hands‑on experience in functional testing and troubleshooting thermo‑mechanical and electro‑mechanical devices (heat exchangers, mechanical assemblies, electro‑magnetic components, x‑ray generators, etc.).
• Familiar with test equipment, data collection methods, lean manufacturing principles and methods.
• Strong desire to learn and engage in the daily engineering and production activities – Demonstrated use of scientific method, Six Sigma, and other manufacturing system improvement tools.
• Strong interpersonal and communication skills, including proficiency with Office products (Word, Excel, PowerPoint).
• Demonstrated experience with troubleshooting.

• Advanced lean manufacturing certifications and Factory Physics – how to model and verify a production process/cell (capacity modeling).
• Mechanical assembly, dielectric oil compatibility, fluid‑fill equipment techniques, oil to water, oil to air cooling systems.
• SAP and MES system utilization.
• Experience working with electro‑mechanical systems – preferably x‑ray or CT equipment.
• Experience with scripting, preferably Python and/or Image
  
  J and/or MATLAB experience a big plus.
• Statistics experience for refining experimental data.

• B.S. degree in a relevant engineering field such as Industrial, Manufacturing, Manufacturing Engineering Technology, or Electro‑Mechanical Engineering.
• 3+ years industry experience.

• Light work that will occasionally require employee to lift/move up to 25 lbs. and occasionally lift more than 25 lbs. to greater than 35 lbs. (all…
