Lead Manufacturing Mechanical Engineer
Core
Lead and optimize mechanical manufacturing operations for large, complex form assemblies, ensuring structural integrity, production readiness, and process robustness across NPI, ramp, and sustaining phases.
Role type
Senior Manufacturing Mechanical Engineer (Large Form Assembly)
Builds
Large-scale mechanical systems including frames, enclosures, heat exchangers, piping, hoses, and structural supports
Domain
Industrial manufacturing / Mechanical assembly
Required skills
DFM/DFA strategy, PFMEA development, tolerance stack-up analysis, mechanical drawing interpretation (GD&T), fastener and torque strategy, structural integration, lean methodologies, root cause analysis (8D/DMAIC/A3), CAD (SolidWorks/AutoCAD/Creo)
Preferred skills
Smart torque tool integration, lifting strategy, mechanical kitting, ergonomic risk reduction, cross-functional collaboration
Technologies
SolidWorks, AutoCAD, Creo, smart torque tools
Responsibilities
Architect and sustain mechanical assembly processes; lead DFM/DFA reviews during NPI; develop and maintain PFMEA and risk assessments; define assembly methodologies (fastening, alignment, sealing); analyze tolerance stack-ups; lead layout and installation strategies for subassemblies; break down complex drawings into production work instructions; optimize build sequences for safety and efficiency; provide hands-on troubleshooting for fit-up and structural issues; mentor junior engineers and technicians.
Seniority
Senior, hands-on IC with technical leadership
