Manufacturing Engineer (Assembly and Installation)

Boeing • Berkeley, MO

2d • $103,700 - $171,350 • Onsite

About The Position

The Manufacturing Engineer Level 3/4 (Advanced Capabilities Team) will design, implement, and continuously improve advanced manufacturing solutions that bridge engineering design intent to efficient, repeatable production. This role will translate complex engineering requirements into build plans and digital work instructions, evaluate and insert advanced technology (including design model interrogation, AR/VR opportunities, and/or digital mockups), lead 3D assembly/process analysis and simulation, and act as a change agent across manufacturing functions to architect the Production System of the future.

Requirements

• Bachelor of Science degree in Engineering, Engineering Technology (including Manufacturing Technology), Computer Science, Data Science, Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry or non-US equivalent qualifications directly related to the work statement.
• Proficiency in 3D spatial analysis and 3D modeling software (e.g., NX, CATIA, Creo, SolidWorks, or similar).
• 5+ years of manufacturing engineering experience (or equivalent) with demonstrable experience in assembly/process planning and work instruction development.
• Demonstrated ability to create build plans and detailed work instructions suitable for production teams.
• Familiarity with PLM/PDM systems and digital manufacturing data flows.
• Ability to author and maintain digital work instructions and visual work content that integrate with Manufacturing Execution Systems.
• Understanding of manufacturing readiness concepts (TRL/MRL) and how they impact solution selection and deployment.
• Ability to perform engineering analysis of design for manufacturability, assembly, and product support requirements.
• Must meet U.S. export control compliance requirements. To meet U.S. export control compliance requirements, a “U.S. Person” as defined by 22 C.F.R. §120.62 is required. “U.S. Person” includes U.S. Citizen, U.S. National, lawful permanent resident, refugee, or asylee.
• Requires the ability to obtain a U.S. Security Clearance for which the U.S. Government requires U.S. Citizenship. An interim and/or final U.S. Secret Clearance Post-Start is required.

Nice To Haves

• Basic knowledge and hands-on experience with Boeing internal PDM and MESCi systems (or equivalent industrial PDM/MES exposure).
• Strong analytical and critical thinking skills applied to manufacturing process improvements and technology integration.
• Excellent interpersonal and communication skills with track record of influencing cross-functional teams and driving change.
• Experience with augmented reality / virtual reality (AR/VR) technologies in manufacturing contexts.
• 3D process planning and assembly simulation experience (e.g., JT, DMU, Delmia, Process Simulate, etc.).
• Prior experience with advanced digital manufacturing suites (e.g., Delmia, Teamcenter Manufacturing, FactoryX, or similar end-to-end digital manufacturing platforms).
• Formal Lean training or certification (e.g., Lean Six Sigma Green/Black Belt).
• Experience implementing/managing Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES) integrations.
• Familiarity with production tooling, fixtures, and ergonomic assessment tools.
• Demonstrated success coaching/training production teams on new manufacturing technologies and sustaining improvements.
• Exposure to aerospace manufacturing standards and regulated environments.

Responsibilities

• Create and maintain build plans, step-by-step work instructions, and associated digital assets for manufacturing execution.
• Perform 3D process planning, spatial analysis, and virtual/physical assembly simulations; identify and mitigate manufacturing risks.
• Integrate advanced digital tools (interactive digital mockups, AR/VR aides, simulation tools) into production workflows.
• Apply Lean principles to identify and remove waste associated with advanced technology implementations.
• Assess TRL and MRL as part of solution selection and plan implementations that meet production readiness criteria.
• Define and document Production System requirements and best practices for current and future-state operations.
• Drive continuous improvement initiatives across production systems, including metrics, KPIs, and sustainment plans.
• Train, coach, and support production personnel on new tools, processes, and digital content.
• Collaborate closely with design engineering, manufacturing operations, tooling, quality, safety, and PLM/PDM teams.
