• Fit, adjust, and test hardware to verify proper form, function, and conformance to specifications.
• Troubleshoot assembly and production issues with technicians and operators.
• Support manufacturing improvements by observing processes, gathering data, and helping implement corrective actions.
• Contribute to manufacturing line planning, layouts, and process flow.
• Conduct timing studies to evaluate cycle times and identify improvement opportunities.
• Assist with the design, evaluation, and testing of fixtures and tooling.
• Document assembly procedures, work instructions, and process observations.

What You Bring To The Team

• Completion or near-completion of a two- or four-year technical degree in Mechanical Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, Industrial Technology, or a related field.
• Hands-on experience in an assembly, production, or manufacturing environment.
• Experience with hand tools, mechanical assembly, or general shop-floor work.
• Ability to apply structured problem-solving to manufacturing challenges.
• Clear written and verbal communication skills.
• Comfort working in an in-person manufacturing environment and collaborating across engineering and production teams.
• Ability to meet the physical requirements of a hands-on manufacturing role, including extended standing, bending, stooping, and lifting.
