TL;DR · Manufacturing Engineer

As a Manufacturing Engineer, you will serve as the first line of defense on the Imaging production floor, ensuring hardware continues moving by resolving technical issues in real time. You will be responsible for troubleshooting, testing, and assembling discrete electromechanical and optomechanical systems while managing downtime and non-conformance tickets. Your daily work involves performing root cause analysis, maintaining accurate data within ERP and MES platforms, and creating detailed work instructions or SOPs to improve yield and throughput. To succeed in this role, you must possess a degree in a technical field like mechanical or electrical engineering and have extensive experience with manufacturing systems. You will utilize tools such as PLM and WMS while navigating the complexities of high-reliability production environments to solve critical bottlenecks in the assembly, integration, and testing of advanced hardware components.
