Job summary

Jabil is seeking a Mechanical Engineer to develop and maintain CAD models, BOMs, specs, and manufacturing documentation for mechanical assemblies. You will provide DFM/DFX guidance and lead process development, tooling design, and production readiness activities.

The position requires a Bachelor's in a relevant field with 5–8 years of experience, strong experience with PFMEA, design for assembly, and CAD tools (AutoCAD/SolidWorks/Creo). Travel up to 30% may be required.

Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in Industrial Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, or a related engineering field; a master's degree is preferred.
• Typically 5 to 8 years of relevant industrial engineering, manufacturing engineering, mechanical integration, or production support experience.
• Experience supporting complex products, processes, workcells, or manufacturing environments.

Responsibilities

• Plan, develop, sustain, and improve assembly processes for mechanical products, subassemblies, frames, structures, panels, enclosures, and mounting solutions.
• Evaluate product flow, material delivery, storage, line feed methods, work in process levels, buffer requirements and workstation or workcell layout.
• Perform process mapping, time studies, work measurement, capacity analysis, and line balancing to improve throughput, labor utilization, schedule adherence, and cost.
• Design and improve ergonomic workstations, fixtures, tools, material‑handling methods, and manufacturing layouts.
• Use CAD tools to review, develop, and update models, layouts, drawings, and technical data packages supporting manufacturability, assembly planning, fixtures, tooling, and production readiness.
• Provide design‑for‑manufacturing and design‑for‑assembly input for machined parts, sheet‑metal components, welded structures, fasteners and mechanical assemblies.
• Support the creation and maintenance of manufacturing documentation, work instructions, process flows, layouts, equipment requirements and product bills of material.
• Evaluate manufacturing feasibility, process risk, equipment needs, labor content, and cost for new or changing products.
• Lead or support PFMEA, root‑cause analysis, corrective actions, yield improvement, quality improvement, and cost‑reduction activities.
• Coordinate manufacturing trials, process validation, equipment qualification, and production readiness activities for new or modified processes.
• Work with production personnel and equipment or component suppliers to resolve manufacturing, assembly, material, and process issues.
• Use production systems and metrics to monitor process performance, identify gaps, and implement sustainable improvements.
• Propose and drive cross‑functional improvement projects within the assigned workcell or product area.
• Provide technical guidance and share industrial engineering practices with less experienced engineers and cross‑functional team members.
