Job summary

Anthropic is hiring a Manufacturing Engineer to own how our servers, racks, and accelerator systems are built at contract manufacturers and ODM partners. You will design and qualify assembly, integration, and test processes, bring up new lines and sites, and drive yield, cycle time, and cost once in production.

This hands-on role requires experience with complex electromechanical hardware, on-site work, and travel up to 50% to partner factories in the US and abroad.

Qualifications

• 8+ years of experience in manufacturing or process engineering for complex electromechanical or electronics products.
• Experience designing and releasing production processes end-to-end with line layout and work instructions.
• Experience working with contract manufacturers or ODMs and leading line bring-up.

Responsibilities

• Design and document the assembly, rack integration, and test process for new server and rack products, including work instructions, process flows, takt and cycle time targets, and line layout.
• Lead new line and new site bring-up at CM/ODM partners, from process validation and capacity verification through pilot builds and release to mass production.
• Specify, source, and validate tooling, fixtures, and test equipment.
• Own first-pass yield, cycle time, and process capability in production; run SPC, analyze failure and rework data, and drive corrective actions with manufacturing partners.
• Provide design-for-manufacturing and design-for-test feedback during product development and represent manufacturing in pilot build reviews.
• Qualify process changes and engineering changes on the line, including PFMEA updates, control plan revisions, and operator training, before changes are cut in.
• Replicate a qualified process from one line or site to another without a yield or throughput regression, and audit partner lines against Anthropic standards.
• Partner with product engineering, test engineering, quality, and supply chain to resolve systemic build issues and reduce per unit cost.
