• GD&T experience is a plus.

Responsibilities

• Develop and implement roust CNC machining processes for new products, translating customer and design specifications into repeatable manufacturing solutions.
• Define and document all manufacturing process steps, including machining strategy, tooling, fixturing, routings, and inspection requirements.
• Lead CNC process prove-outs, trails, and validations to ensure processes are capable, efficient, and cost-effective prior to production release.
• Identify manufacturability risks early and drive design or process changes to support successful launches.
• Own process development timelines, managing workload to ensure new product milestones and customer launch schedules are met.
• Represent process Engineering on project teams, providing regular status updates to management and customers.
• Partner closely with Customer Design Engineering during the design phase, providing manufacturability and CNC process feedback.
• Collaborate with Planning to understand machine availability and capacity constraints.
• Spend up to 50% of time on the manufacturing floor supporting new product introductions, working directly with operators and production leadership.
• Support operations through ramp-up until products are stable, efficient, and meeting cost targets.
• Plan, conduct, and analyze engineering studies to drive process improvements during development and ramp-up.
• Create and maintain process documentation, including work instructions and standard operating procedures.
• Assist with capital equipment projects, including equipment selection, justification, and timeline oversight.
