Job Description & How to Apply Below
3+ years of manufacturing experience with exposure to multiple processes
Strong knowledge of at least two manufacturing modalities (additive manufacturing, CNC machining, welding, sheet metal fabrication, or assembly)
Proficiency with 3D CAD software and manufacturing preparation tools
Demonstrated ability to read and interpret technical drawings and GD&T
Strong analytical skills for cost estimation and capacity planning
Client seeks an Application Engineer to serve as the technical bridge between customers and manufacturing operations across all our manufacturing capabilities. You will own the customer quoting process, production planning, and design for manufacturability (DFM) consultation for projects spanning additive manufacturing, CNC machining, welding, sheet metal fabrication, powder coating, and assembly. This role requires broad technical knowledge of multiple manufacturing processes and the ability to translate customer requirements into executable production plans.
Key Responsibilities:Customer Engagement and Quoting
- Review customer requirements and technical drawings to assess project feasibility across all manufacturing modalities
- Generate accurate quotes including material costs, labor estimates, and lead times for complex multi-process projects
- Provide design for manufacturability (DFM) feedback to optimize parts for additive manufacturing, CNC machining, welding, sheet metal fabrication, and assembly
- Recommend optimal manufacturing processes based on part geometry, tolerances, materials, cost, and lead time requirements
- Collaborate with customers to refine designs and specifications
- Support Customer Success team with technical expertise during customer interactions
- Prepare manufacturing files including 3D printing build prep, CNC programming coordination, and sheet metal nesting
- Plan and schedule jobs across multiple manufacturing processes to optimize throughput and meet delivery commitments
- Conduct capacity planning to balance customer demand with available manufacturing resources across all departments
- Estimate labor requirements for machining, printing, welding, fabrication, coating, post-processing, and assembly operations
- Coordinate with CNC programming team to manage programming capacity and lead times
- Work with manufacturing managers on production priorities and resource allocation
- Analyze part geometry to determine optimal manufacturing approach (additive vs. subtractive, hybrid processes)
- Evaluate material selection across metals, plastics, and composites for different manufacturing processes
- Identify potential manufacturing challenges and recommend design modifications
- Assess trade-offs between cost, quality, lead time, and manufacturing complexity
- Support continuous improvement initiatives to reduce costs and improve efficiency
- Partner with Additive Manufacturing Manager and Subtractive Manufacturing Manager to ensure smooth transition from quote to production
- Work with quality engineers on inspection requirements and first article approvals
- Coordinate multi-process workflows for hybrid projects requiring 3D printing, machining, welding, coating, and assembly
- Support Business Development with technical assessments for new capabilities and technologies
- Collaborate with CNC programmers on manufacturability and programming feasibility
Required
- 3+ years of manufacturing experience with exposure to multiple processes
- Strong knowledge of at least two manufacturing modalities (additive manufacturing, CNC machining, welding, sheet metal fabrication, or assembly)
- Proficiency with 3D CAD software and manufacturing preparation tools
- Demonstrated ability to read and interpret technical drawings and GD&T
- Strong analytical skills for cost estimation and capacity planning
- 5+ years of manufacturing experience across multiple modalities (3D printing, CNC machining, welding, sheet metal, coating, assembly)
- Experience in contract manufacturing or customer-facing technical roles
- Familiarity with design for manufacturing (DFM) and design for additive manufacturing (DfAM) principles
- Knowledge of CNC programming and CAM software (Mastercam, ESPRIT, or similar)
- Understanding of welding processes, sheet metal fabrication techniques, and surface finishing
- Project management experience with multiple concurrent projects
- Proficiency with CAD software (Solid Works, Fusion 360, or similar)
- Strong verbal and written communication skills for customer…
