3rd Shift - Manufacturing Engineer - Engine Assembly

$92k - $105k

Full-time

GE Renewable Energy Power and Aviation

Job Description Summary
As Engine Assembly Manufacturing Engineer, you will provide on-shift manufacturing engineering support for engine assembly operations during 3rd shift, helping production teams safely build engines to quality, delivery, and cost targets. You will work directly with assemblers, technicians, quality, and support teams to resolve shop-floor issues, maintain process control, troubleshoot technical and hardware-related problems, and ensure work is performed to engineering and process requirements. You will support ongoing production by responding to disruptions, clarifying technical instructions, interpreting drawings and specifications, and making decisions within established procedures to keep assembly flowing.
This role is responsible for monitoring assembly processes, identifying and preventing defects or escapes, supporting root cause investigation and corrective actions, and driving practical process improvements that improve safety, quality, and productivity. The engineer must be able to balance immediate production needs with longer-term process discipline, communicate clearly across functions, and escalate issues that fall outside standard limits. On 3rd shift, this often means serving as a key technical resource for the operation with greater independence and ownership in real-time problem solving.

Evaluate manufacturability and process risks and escalate issues when product or process integrity may be impacted
Support new product introduction, process changes, tool changes, and production readiness activities as needed
Communicate clearly across shifts and functions to ensure continuity of operations and effective issue resolution
Use sound judgment to make timely decisions within established engineering and quality requirements, while escalating higher-risk issues appropriately
