Manufacturing Engineer

Uvision is seeking a hands-on and versatile Manufacturing Engineer with a strong background in electro-mechanical systems to support New Product Introduction (NPI) and provide technical guidance throughout the product lifecycle. This role bridges the gap between design and production, ensuring that manufacturing processes are robust, scalable, and aligned with product requirements. The ideal candidate will be comfortable interpreting complex technical data packages and collaborating with cross-functional teams and suppliers to resolve technical queries.

Job Description

• Support NPI activities and collaborate with R&D, Design, and Supply Chain teams to transition products from development to production.
• Develop and validate manufacturing processes for new products, including tooling, fixtures, and assembly methods.
• Participate in design reviews to ensure manufacturability and cost-effectiveness.
• Interpret and clarify engineering drawings, PCBA schematics, BOMs, and specifications for internal teams and external suppliers.
• Serve as the primary point of contact for technical questions related to the Technical Data Package (TDP).
• Ensure documentation is complete, accurate, and production-ready.
• Define and optimize assembly and test processes for electro-mechanical systems.
• Support root cause analysis and corrective actions for production issues.
• Implement Lean Manufacturing principles and continuous improvement initiatives.
• Work closely with Procurement, Quality, and Supplier Engineering teams to ensure alignment on technical requirements.
• Support supplier onboarding and technical training as needed.
• Collaborate with Design and R&D teams to ensure the manufacturability of new products.

Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Electro-Mechanical Engineering, Mechatronics, Robotics, Manufacturing Engineering, or a related field.
• +5years of experience in Manufacturing Engineering, preferably in electro-mechanical or defense/aerospace systems.
• Strong understanding of NPI processes and Design for Manufacturing (DFM) principles.
• Proficiency in interpreting engineering drawings, GD&T, PCBA schematics, BOMs, and technical documentation.
• Proficiency in CAD software (e.g., SolidWorks) and manufacturing systems (e.g., PDM, Autodesk Vault, SW Composer).
• Strong understanding of electro-mechanical assembly processes.
• Experience working with suppliers and contract manufacturers.
• Experience with manufacturing processes such as CNC machining, injection molding, sheet metal fabrication, composites, and 3D printing.
• Familiarity with ERP and PLM systems (e.g., Priority, Autodesk Vault) and project management tools such as Monday.com.
• Excellent problem-solving, communication, and collaboration skills.

Advantages

• Knowledge of IPC standards and industry best practices for electronics manufacturing.

• Hands-on experience with assembly, testing, and troubleshooting of electro-mechanical systems.

• Lean Six Sigma certification or equivalent process improvement training
