What You’ll Do
Lead & Scale Manufacturing
- Build and lead a high-performing manufacturing engineering team
- Define and execute manufacturing strategies aligned to growth and electrification
- Partner cross-functionally with R&D, Product, Supply Chain, and Operations
Drive Product Industrialization (DFMA)
- Lead DFMA for boilers, steam systems, and heat pumps
- Optimize designs for fabrication, assembly, and serviceability
- Oversee pilot builds, validation, and manufacturing readiness
Enable Production Ramp
- Design efficient layouts and production lines for large-scale equipment
- Implement lean principles (flow, line balancing, cycle time reduction)
- Develop capacity models, labor standards, and capital plans
- Stand up and optimize test systems (pressure, thermal, performance)
Own Supplier Technical Strategy
- Act as the engineering lead for critical suppliers (heat exchangers, coils, pressure vessels, compressors)
- Drive supplier quality and manufacturability (PPAP/APQP, audits, DFMA alignment)
- Resolve technical challenges for build-to-print components
Build World-Class Processes
- Standardize processes (welding, brazing, leak testing, refrigerant handling)
- Lead Lean / Six Sigma improvements across yield, throughput, and cost
- Establish robust documentation, work instructions, and training systems
Ensure Quality, Compliance & Safety
- Maintain compliance with ASME, UL/ETL/CSA, and HVAC standards
- Partner with Quality on root cause and corrective actions
- Champion safe practices for high-pressure, high-temperature, and refrigerant systems
