Manufacturing & Process Engineer

Manufacturing EngineerYou'll own how Standard Bots robots get built — from the first process design to the last improvement on the production floor. Our factory is in Glen Cove, NY, and you'll be on it every day, so the fixture you design or the fix you make today shows up on the line tomorrow morning. The discipline we build now will define the quality and cost of every robot we ship, and you'll help set it.This is an individual contributor role for an engineer who wants real ownership early. You'll report to the Manufacturing & Process Engineering Manager and work closely with product, mechanical engineering, quality, and production. As production scales, so will your scope.You'll work on-site at our factory in Glen Cove, NY, five days a week.- Sit in DFM/DFA reviews with product and mechanical engineering and bring concrete feedback on assemblability, tolerances, and cost, not vague opinions.- Design, build, and validate the fixtures, tooling, and workstations used for robot assembly and test.- Own the process flow for your assigned assemblies, and support NPI as new products move from prototype to production.- Spot automation opportunities in assembly, test, and material handling, then build the case for the ones actually worth doing.- Drive measurable gains in yield, cycle time, and first-pass quality on the stations and lines you own.- Run root cause analysis on defects and nonconformances, put corrective actions in place, and verify they hold.- Contribute to PFMEAs and control plans, and feed what you learn on the floor back into them.- Use time studies, capacity analysis, and lean tools (5S/6S, standard work, value stream mapping) to cut waste.- Write and maintain the work instructions, routings, and BOM accuracy for your processes.- Track process metrics (capability, yield, cycle time) and report them weekly.- 3–5 years in manufacturing or process engineering in a hardware production environment.- A bachelor's degree in Mechanical, Industrial, Manufacturing, or a related engineering field.- Hands-on production-level experience with DFM/DFA, fixture design, and process documentation.- CAD proficiency (SolidWorks, Onshape, or similar) for fixture and tooling design.- Working knowledge of root cause analysis and lean or continuous improvement methods.- At least one quality or throughput improvement you scoped, delivered, and can put a number on.- Comfort on the shop floor every day, in a place where the playbook is still being written.The salary range for this role is $150,000 - $180,000, depending on experience.
