Manufacturing Engineering Technician - 2nd Shift

Your Job

This Manufacturing Engineering Technician will support electronics production by translating engineering designs into reliable, repeatable manufacturing processes.

You will help optimize assembly and test flows, drive continuous improvement to improve yield and reduce cycle time, and ensure products meet quality and regulatory requirements across high-volume and prototype lines.

Our Team

You will join the Manufacturing Engineering group within Electronics Operations, a cross-functional team of design engineers, process engineers, and production specialists focused on delivering high-reliability electronic assemblies.

The team partners closely with Manufacturing, Quality, and Supply Chain to move products from prototype to scalable production.

What You Will Do



* Support process development and scale-up by implementing manufacturable assembly and test methods that increase yield and throughput.


* Diagnose recurring quality or assembly failures, identify root causes, and enable corrective actions that reduce defect rates.


* Develop and maintain assembly and test documentation (work instructions, process flow, FMEAs) that enable consistent production and knowledge transfer.


* Collaborate with engineering, operations, and suppliers to introduce equipment, fixturing, and process changes that lower cost and improve manufacturability.


* Lead small continuous-improvement projects (yield improvements, cycle-time reduction, scrap reduction) and report measurable results.


* Provide hands-on support on the production floor for troubleshooting, product qualification, and pilot builds to ensure successful ramp to volume.

Who You Are (Basic Qualifications)



* Associate degree or technical certificate in Electronics Technology, Manufacturing Engineering Technology, or related STEM field, or equivalent technical work experience.


* Minimum 2 years' experience in electronics manufacturing or electronics assembly process support.



* Familiarity with board mount connectors, wire build/harness connectors, basic soldering principles, crimping, wire cut/stripping, and common inspection/diagnostic tools (multimeter, oscilloscope).


* Ability to read and interpret electrical schematics, assembly drawings, and process documentation.


* Strong written and verbal communication skills sufficient to create work instructions and interact with cross-functional teams.

What Will Put You Ahead



* Experience with board mount connectors, wire build/harness connectors, basic soldering principles, crimping and wire cut/stripping.


* Certifications such as IPC-A-610 / J-STD-001 soldering/assembly or similar.


* Hands-on experience with building electronic connectors, wired assemblies, test systems, and troubleshooting.


* Experience with quality and continuous improvement tools (8D, root-cause analysis, SPC, Six Sigma, PDCA, or Lean).


* Process improvement, eliminating waste, creating value, cos...
