  • Drive first‑time pass yield by embedding control points and critical parameter tracking into processes

  • Partner with engineering and quality teams to incorporate lessons learned into procedures and documentation

  • Support implementation of new processes and tooling on the shop floor, including operator training

  • Ensure alignment between released documentation and actual production practices

  • Support audits and ensure compliance with configuration control and quality system requirements

  • Participate in engineering change orders and process improvement initiatives

What you need

  • Strong ability to define and document manufacturing processes and assembly methods – required

  • Experience creating procedures, travelers, and tooling in a production environment – required

  • Proven understanding of shop‑floor operations and operator workflows – required

  • Ability to analyze process performance and drive yield improvements – preferred

  • Experience in high‑reliability manufacturing environments – required

  • Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical, Electrical, or Manufacturing Engineering (or related) – required

  • Experience with vacuum electronics, RF assemblies, or high‑voltage systems – preferred

  • Familiarity with contamination‑sensitive processes and traceability systems – preferred

What we offer

  • Opportunity to work on cutting‑edge, high‑reliability technologies

  • Collaborative, cross‑functional engineering environment

  • Strong visibility and impact on manufacturing performance and continuous improvement

  • Career growth in advanced manufacturing and engineering leadership
    (Additional benefits such as compensation, healthcare, or bonuses can be added based on company specifics.)
