Role Description

Key Responsibilities

  • Review engineering drawings and specifications to ensure that the parts required for the project can be effectively manufactured.
  • Identify potential subcontractors and obtain quotes
  • Assess the feasibility of manufacturing in house or subcontracting based on project manufacturing budget, schedule, and capabilities.
  • Create technical purchase requests for both raw materials and subcontracting using manual REQs or ERP system.
  • Coordinate with the procurement department to issue purchase orders for subcontracting and follow up delivery due dates.
  • Develop comprehensive manufacturing plans that outline the step-by-step process to create the required parts efficiently and effectively.
  • Coordinate with QA department to release the latest and approved manufacturing drawings.
  • Coordinate with the shipping team to ship approved materials for subcontracting and receive manufactured parts.
  • Provide technical guidance and act as the single point of contact between vendor and engineering/PM.
  • Ensure adherence of all MITP requirements for manufacturing activities (hold, witness, and inspection points)
  • Respond and issue nonconformities for any manufacturing deviation and follow up on the dispositioning directions.
  • Work closely with engineers, designers, and other team members to address technical challenges and optimize the manufacturing process.

Qualifications

  • A post-secondary degree in industrial or mechanical engineering, or a related field
  • 2-4 years of directly related manufacturing /machining and welding field experience, where production challenges are continuously unique rather than repetitive in nature.
  • Experience reading and interpreting engineering drawings
  • Strong manufacturing process knowledge
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal abilities for effective team collaboration
  • Familiarity with ERP systems

What We Offer:

  • Competitive salary and benefits package.
  • Participation in our Retirement Saving Plan & Deferred Profit-Sharing Plan.

  • Exciting and unique projects to grow and develop your career
  • A flexible and supportive work environment.
