Manufacturing Support: CNC programming, process control, fixture design for assembly, procedure documentation, and robot programming.

Quality Control: Vision inspection system programming and implementation.

This is a diverse, hands-on role ideal for engineers who thrive in a multifaceted environment and are eager to grow their skills across disciplines.

Responsibilities

Contribute to the design and development of new products, fixtures, and tooling using SolidWorks and SolidWorks CAM.

Execute functional testing, analyze results, and refine systems through iterative troubleshooting and adjustment.

Deliver technical support for existing machines and operations, including process documentation and updates to work instructions.

Contribute to ongoing improvement initiatives aimed at increasing efficiency, reducing downtime, and supporting lean manufacturing principles.

Participate in cross-functional projects involving R&D, quality, and operations.

Qualifications

Bachelor's degree in Mechanical or Industrial Engineering.

Experience with CAD Modeling (SolidWorks preferred)

Familiarity with CNC equipment, mechanical systems, and manual tools (e.g., lathes, drills, mills).

Understanding of technical drawings and GD&T.

Detail-oriented with a strong problem-solving mindset.

Excellent communication and project coordination skills.

Self-directed, reliable, and able to manage multiple priorities.

A team player with a continuous improvement focus and respect for craftsmanship and quality.
