Rima Manufacturing is looking to add Industrial and/or Mechanical Engineers to our growing Engineering team!

If you're looking for a position where you'll make a real impact—not just sit behind a computer all day—this could be the perfect opportunity.

This is a hands-on engineering role!
Our engineers split their time between the office and the shop floor, working directly with production to solve problems, improve processes, and support manufacturing operations.

We're especially interested in candidates with experience in:
CNC and/or CAM machining
Tooling design
Speeds & feeds optimization
Tool layouts
Bar machine experience
Manufacturing process improvement

Whether you have experience in all of these areas or just some, we'd love to hear from you!

What you'll do:
• Improve manufacturing processes and efficiencies
• Support production and quality initiatives
• Work on tooling and machine improvements
• Lead engineering projects
• Collaborate with production, quality, and customers

Safety is a priority at Rima Manufacturing.
Employees working in production areas are required to wear PPE, including hearing protection and safety glasses (provided by the company) and slip-resistant shoes (provided by the employee). 

If you're an engineer who enjoys solving problems, working with people, and seeing your ideas come to life on the manufacturing floor, we'd love to talk with you!
