TL;DR · Manufacturing Process Development Engineer, Intelligence Systems

Manufacturing Process Development Engineer, Intelligence Systems joins the Manufacturing Engineering team to develop and implement robust manufacturing processes for defense products. This role focuses on designing and optimizing manual assembly operations, dispensing applications for adhesives and sealants, and creating detailed technical documentation with visual aids. The engineer will provide active lineside support, perform root cause analysis to resolve production deviations, and collaborate with cross-functional teams to ensure manufacturability during new product introductions. Key responsibilities include establishing process parameters, utilizing AS9100 standards, and improving efficiency through lean manufacturing principles. Required skills include proficiency in CAD software, experience with manufacturing execution systems, and knowledge of dispensing technologies. The role addresses the challenge of scaling high-reliability defense technology from prototype to production while ensuring consistent quality and safety in a high-volume, low-mix environment.

What you'll do

  • Design and optimize manual assembly processes for high-volume production environments.
  • Create comprehensive manufacturing work instructions and technical documentation with visual aids.
  • Engineer and optimize dispensing operations for adhesives, sealants, and thermal materials.
  • Provide real-time lineside support to resolve process deviations and maintain production flow.
  • Perform root cause analysis to implement corrective actions and improve manufacturing processes.
  • Develop and validate process parameters and control limits to ensure consistent product quality.
  • Support new product introductions by scaling manufacturing processes from prototype to full production.
  • Participate in design reviews to provide feedback on manufacturability and assembly optimization.

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor's degree in Manufacturing Engineering, Industrial Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or a related technical field.
  • 3+ years of experience in manufacturing process development, preferably in a high-reliability industry (preferred).
  • Demonstrated expertise in creating detailed work instructions and manufacturing process documentation.
  • Experience optimizing manual assembly operations and establishing standardized work.
  • Proven ability to improve manufacturing processes using lean manufacturing principles.
  • Experience with dispensing technologies for adhesives, sealants, or similar materials.
  • Proficiency with CAD software for creating assembly documentation and tooling design.
  • Must currently possess and be able to maintain an active U.S. Secret security clearance.
