We're looking for a hands-on Senior Manufacturing Engineer with real CNC machining expertise to lead process improvements, capital projects, and technical problem-solving on our machining floor. This role is the go-to technical resource for CNC machining, turning, milling, grinding, and related manufacturing systems - diagnosing issues, optimizing processes, and leading projects from concept through launch. You'll work closely with Operations, Maintenance, Quality, Supply Chain, and Product Engineering.

Specific Responsibilities:

• Provide hands-on technical expertise across CNC machining, turning, milling, grinding, honing, and broaching - including troubleshooting issues that affect safety, quality, delivery, or cost
• Establish and optimize process parameters (speeds/feeds, tool life, coolant, work-holding, tooling strategy) and own equipment, tooling, fixture, and gauging processes
• Lead capital and engineering projects from scope through installation, commissioning, and final acceptance, including procurement, RFQs, and ROI analyses
• Serve as the plant's subject matter expert on machining technology, mentoring engineers and technicians and driving cross-functional problem-solving
• Lead continuous improvement efforts - cost reduction, waste elimination, and root-cause corrective action

Requirements

• Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Industrial Engineering, Engineering Technology, or a related field
• 4+ years of manufacturing engineering experience, with a focus on machined components and assemblies
• Hands-on CNC machining expertise, including fluency in G-code and M-code
• Experience processing parts - sequencing operations to consistently produce quality results, not just running the machine
• Strong knowledge of tooling, fixtures, gauging, and manufacturing systems, with a track record of solving complex process problems
• Strong written and verbal communication skills; comfortable working cross-functionally with operations, maintenance, quality, and suppliers

Preferences

• Demonstrated ability to lead engineering or capital projects (machine replacements, capacity increases, cost-out initiatives)
• CAM software experience (MasterCAM, GibbsCAM, or similar)
• Lean Manufacturing, Six Sigma, or RCCA background
