Because this role works closely with Manufacturing, onsite presence is important for collaborating with cross-functional teams, evaluating product improvements, supporting production, and implementing engineering solutions. Some flexibility may be available depending on project and team needs.
How You Contribute
Identify, develop, and implement continuous improvement initiatives that enhance product quality, performance, manufacturability, safety, and cost efficiency.
Lead and manage engineering improvement projects, coordinating priorities, timelines, technical milestones, and cross-functional communication.
Partner with Manufacturing to troubleshoot production challenges, investigate product issues, and develop practical engineering solutions.
Create and modify 3D CAD models, engineering drawings, parts, assemblies, and specifications using SolidWorks.
Evaluate and implement engineering changes while maintaining product functionality, design intent, and manufacturing requirements.
Perform tolerance stack-up analysis and participate in prototype development, product testing, and design validation.
Collaborate with Design, Engineering, Supply Chain, Quality, Manufacturing, and external partners to evaluate materials, manufacturing processes, tooling, and production solutions.
Brainstorm and evaluate engineering improvements, using problem-solving and technical analysis to recommend effective solutions.
Maintain accurate engineering documentation and clearly communicate technical findings, project updates, challenges, and recommendations.
What We're Looking For
Bachelor's degree in Engineering or a related technical discipline preferred, with 3–5 years of relevant engineering experience and/or a strong technical background.
Strong working knowledge of SolidWorks, including 3D modeling, assemblies, and engineering drawings. SolidWorks certifications are a plus but not required.
Experience with blueprint reading, GD&T, precision measuring equipment, and performing tolerance stack-up analysis.
Working knowledge of manufacturing processes and materials, including metal fabrication, sheet metal, welded assemblies, steel, aluminum, wood, plastics, castings, and composite materials.
Foundational project management skills, with the ability to independently coordinate engineering projects, manage timelines, and follow through on deliverables.
Strong mechanical troubleshooting and problem-solving skills, with the ability to investigate challenges, identify root causes, and develop practical solutions.
Understanding of design for manufacturability, product quality, and continuous improvement principles.
Collaborative and service-oriented, with the ability to work effectively across Manufacturing, Engineering, Design, and other departments.
Strong organizational and communication skills, with the ability to manage multiple priorities and explain technical information clearly.
Additional Experience We'd Value
Familiarity with quality engineering tools such as FMEA, capability studies, and coordinate measuring machines (CMM).
Experience working with external engineering partners on specialized technical analysis or structural evaluations.
Experience identifying and implementing product improvements that result in measurable quality, efficiency, or cost savings.
