Job description

Insight Global is currently seeking a highly motivated Senior Manufacturing and Process Development Engineer to support process development and manufacturing readiness for new product introduction.

In this role, a senior individual contributor will be responsible for owning manufacturing engineering deliverables for assigned NPI/process development projects, providing DFM/DFA input, developing robust processes and tooling, supporting qualification and launch, and helping standardize manufacturing practices across sites. This position provides broad exposure to cross-functional NPI programs, manufacturing site collaboration, and opportunities to grow as a technical leader in manufacturing process development.

Lead manufacturing readiness activities that help bring new products from concept through launch.

Influence early product design through strong DFM/DFA input to improve manufacturability, quality, cost, and scalability.

Develop robust manufacturing processes, tooling, and equipment solutions that support customer-driven product innovation.

Job Requirements

• Execute Manufacturing Engineering deliverables aligned with the LEANPD process, including:
• New process and equipment specification in compliance with TE safety and ergonomic policies.
• DFM/DFA input into the early stages of product design.
• PFMEA and implementation of high-risk mitigation plans.
• Manufacturing capacity analysis.
• Assembly tooling and equipment development.
• Execution of sample builds for DFM and process development.
• Generation of process specifications.
• Lead or support development and implementation of manufacturing technologies, equipment, and appropriate automation to support new product introduction.
• Apply a lean manufacturing focus to improve cost, quality, yield, and manufacturability of manufacturing processes.
• Liaise with manufacturing facilities to support preliminary cost estimates on new product concepts.

What your background should look like

• Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical, Manufacturing Engineering, or related technical discipline with a minimum of 5 years of hands‑on manufacturing, process development, or new product introduction experience
• Experience with machine, equipment and process design, development, and deployment into a production environment.
• Hands‑on problem solver with the ability to independently manage assigned technical workstreams while collaborating with project and functional leadership.
• Demonstrated success in leveraging Lean tools to introduce or enhance manufacturing processes.
• Must be able to effectively operate in remote teams with broad geographic footprints.
• Excellent time management skills with the ability to balance priorities across multiple active projects and launch timelines.
• Strong written and oral communication skills across all levels of the organization.
• Proficient with 3D CAD software as well as general Microsoft Office applications.

What success looks like:

• Manufacturing processes are ready to support product launch with clear specifications, tooling, capacity assumptions, and qualification evidence.
• Product designs reflect early manufacturability input and known process risks are addressed through PFMEA and mitigation planning.
• Site teams have the documentation, training input, and technical support needed to execute repeatable manufacturing processes.
• Lessons learned are captured and used to improve future NPI and process development projects.
