About the role

Manufacturing Engineer role focused on executing manufacturing value-chain tasks for Sentry Tower Systems, including DFM/DFA, process development, documentation, root cause analysis, and quality planning in a fast-paced electromechanical hardware environment.

Responsibilities

  • Support the transition of new electromechanical products from NPI to production, contributing to Design for Manufacturability (DFM) and Design for Assembly (DFA) efforts, and assisting in establishing robust manufacturing processes to meet production demands.
  • Contribute to continuous improvement initiatives for existing production lines and manufacturing processes, providing engineering support to resolve issues, enhance efficiency, reduce costs, and improve product quality.
  • Assist in the design, implementation, and optimization of efficient manufacturing processes, supporting efforts to maximize throughput, reduce costs, and ensure consistent high-quality output for products.
  • Participate in projects for the installation, commissioning, and validation of new manufacturing systems and equipment, assisting with communication on their impact to production capabilities, efficiency, and capacity to stakeholders.
  • Assist in identifying and implementing automation solutions and integrated workflows to streamline manufacturing processes, enhancing efficiency and repeatability.
  • Develop and refine detailed manufacturing process flows, assisting in breaking down assemblies into logical subassemblies and sub-processes to optimize production flow and ensure consistent product quality on the line.
  • Create and maintain manufacturing documentation, including detailed work instructions, SOPs, and quality control plans, to ensure standardized and repeatable production.
  • Partner with contract manufacturers across diverse disciplines to support the establishment of repeatable production processes and ensure on-time delivery.
  • Travel to key suppliers and contract manufacturers to support resolution of production issues, assist in auditing processes, and implement quality control procedures to maintain production continuity and quality.
  • Provide DFM and DFA feedback to engineering teams, helping to optimize product design for production efficiency, cost, quality, and reliability.
  • Support technical ownership for assigned product lines, collaborating with Design Engineering, Quality Assurance, Production Operations, Software, and Program Management to ensure seamless product realization and issue resolution.
  • Maintain Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) data, assisting with BOM management, configuration control, and change management within systems like Teamcenter.

Qualifications

  • Degree in a technical field such as engineering, math, or a hard science
