Lead Manufacturing Engineer

Advanced Cooling Technologies Inc • Lancaster, PA • 9h ago

Job Type

Full-time

Description

Advanced Cooling Technologies, Inc. (ACT) is a premier thermal management solutions company. We serve diverse markets including Defense, Aerospace, HVAC, Power Electronics and Medical. ACT is strongly committed to our customers, employees, and community. Innovation, Teamwork and Customer Care are our core values that drive the continuous growth of our company. Our skilled staff is a critical factor in our success.

We provide thermal products and engineering services to the world's leading defense and industrial companies such as Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Boeing, General Electric, Intel, and Hewlett Packard. We also conduct advanced research work for government agencies including NASA, DOD, and DOE. Our products and technologies have become integral parts of numerous mission-critical equipment, from life-saving MRI and CT scanners to energy-efficient building HVAC systems to weather and telecommunications satellites.

Position summary:

The Lead Engineer will lead a small group of engineers and technicians in in a wide variety of engineering tasks including product development to manufacturing transitions, thorough identification of all customer requirements, manufacturing tooling design, fabrication process development, procedure and traveler generation, the study of manufacturing cycle times, project schedule and tracking, customer interaction, and budget control. At any given time, the Lead Engineer is responsible for the success of multiple projects. Quite frequently, the Lead Engineer is also responsible for working with the Product Development group to transition product designs into production.

The ideal candidate will possess the following qualities:

Initiative: Product Development engineers don't have a daily agenda given to them and are expected to take it upon themselves to work closely with customers, vendors and ACT personnel to fulfill projects goals and objectives.

Teamwork skills: Any effective leader must also be an excellent team member. As a member of the product development team, the ideal candidate must have the ability to give and receive encouragement and constructive criticism, communicate effectively, and work cooperatively with team members to achieve common goals. They must effectively balance the personalities and opinions of various team members to maximize each member's effectiveness and direct the team toward meeting the customer's goals and expectations

Critical thinking skills: The product development customer and projects vary widely, and the strategies and design approaches that worked for one program may be completely different for the next opportunity. Because of that, we need a curious individual who loves to dive in, experiment, and develop innovative solutions to new challenges.

Desire to grow: The ideal candidate wants to be the best at their job and is never content with "good enough". They set lofty goals and constantly seek to improve themselves and expand their professional knowledge and skillset. They desire to sharpen their engineering and project management skills and grow in leadership ability and responsibility.

Technical knowledge: We are looking for a candidate who has a strong academic engineering background, coupled with hands-on skills and fabrication and testing capabilities.

Leadership ability: At ACT we believe that leaders are not defined by title or position, but by character and conduct. Our Lead Engineers must possess confidence, humility, and emotional intelligence in addition to their technical knowledge.
