Manager, Manufacturing Engineering
About The Position
This role involves ensuring Design-for-Manufacturability (DFM) and quality principles are integrated into new products by interfacing with R&D and Engineering. The position is responsible for complete and properly released product documentation packages, and for providing procedures for assembly and testing of electromechanical assemblies. The Manager will interface with engineering, production personnel, and contract manufacturers to define, develop, document, and train on assembly and test criteria, manufacturing methods, processes, and procedures. This includes interacting with turnkey and contract manufacturers to resolve technical, quality, and design issues, as well as establishing critical process controls. The role requires effective management of resources, schedules, and deliverable quality. Key activities include identifying and classifying product and process characteristics, confirming specifications, establishing Failure Mode and Effect Analysis (FMEA), and driving corrective and preventive actions. The position also involves establishing process control plans, production process (routing) planning and standardization, and creating standard work and inspection instructions. Training and certification of operators for new processes, diagnosing and solving product, process, and quality problems, and managing Product and Process Change (PCN) are also core responsibilities. Furthermore, the role entails designing, implementing, and improving production equipment, tooling, jigs, fixtures, and gages. Support will be provided to sales and commercial technical teams for validating manufacturability, and to the quality team for resolving customer quality issues. The position also supports lean manufacturing implementation and process innovation to improve productivity, quality, and cost, and is involved in new project transfers. Other duties as assigned.
