Junior Manufacturing Engineer


About the Opportunity


We are seeking a Junior Manufacturing Engineer to join our engineering and production team. This is an excellent opportunity for an early-career engineer who wants to gain significant hands-on manufacturing experience while working closely with an experienced Engineering Manager.


The position offers exposure to CAD/CAM, CNC machining, tooling and fixture design, electro-mechanical assemblies,  process improvement, manufacturing documentation, and production troubleshooting.



What You'll Do

•  Assist with the development and improvement of manufacturing processes for mechanical and electro-mechanical products. 
•  Create and modify 2D drawings and 3D CAD models, including tooling, fixtures, jigs, gauges, and manufacturing aids. 
•  Work directly with experienced engineers, machinists, technicians, and production personnel to troubleshoot manufacturing issues. 
•  Support CNC machining and CAM programming, including prototype parts, production components, and tooling. 
•  Review engineering drawings, specifications, BOMs, and manufacturing requirements. 
•  Assist with prototype builds, first articles, engineering changes, and the transition of new products into production. 
•  Develop and update work instructions, manufacturing procedures, routers/travelers, and other production documentation. 
•  Support root-cause investigations and corrective actions involving quality and manufacturing issues. 
•  Gain experience with GD&T, tolerances, tooling, workholding, machining practices, and dimensional inspection. 
•  Assist senior engineering personnel with manufacturing estimates, including material, labor, machine time, tooling, and outside processing. 
•  Participate in continuous-improvement projects focused on quality, efficiency, manufacturability, and cost reduction. 

What We're Looking For

•  Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, Mechanical Engineering Technology, Manufacturing Engineering Technology, or a related discipline. Recent graduates are encouraged to apply. 
• 0–3 years of manufacturing or engineering experience; internships, co-ops, machine-shop, laboratory, or hands-on project experience will be considered. 
•  Basic experience with a 2D/3D CAD platform such as SolidWorks, Inventor, AutoCAD, or Creo. 
•  Exposure to CNC machining, CAM programming, machine-shop practices, tooling, or fixture design is highly desirable but does not need to be expert-level. 
•  Ability to read mechanical drawings and an understanding of basic tolerances; exposure to GD&T is a plus. 
•  Strong mechanical aptitude with an interest in spending time on the manufacturing floor rather than working exclusively at a desk. 
•  Strong problem-solving, communication, and organizational skills. 
•  Willingness to learn manufacturing estimating, process documentation, tooling design, and production troubleshooting. 
•  U.S. work authorization consistent with the requirements of the products/programs supported by the position.
