Process Engineer, Torque + Weld + Press Manufacturing, NPI Ownership, Quality Side Trained On

, , .

The quality systems knowledge already sits on this team and they will train you on it. What they cannot train is knowing what goes wrong on a process and what to measure to catch it early.

Pave Talent is hiring on behalf of our client, a growing US manufacturer of engineered power and energy products for medical, energy, robotics, industrial and defense customers, including one of the biggest names in heavy equipment. Two production sites in the Henderson area, roughly 100 to 130 people on the main floor, and volume climbing sharply over the next year.

• Process and manufacturing engineers who want to own what happens on the floor, not inherit a binder

• People who have taken a product from first build through to stable production and liked the messy middle

• Anyone comfortable deciding how to move forward when the spec is not settled yet

If you want a mature system with every process already locked down and documented, this is not your role.

You'll report to the Quality Manager and join a small team as added headcount. Most of the week is on the production floor. The rest is new product introduction, where specs are still moving and you are the one working out what to control. You pull design and manufacturing engineering into problems rather than solving them alone, because nothing here gets decided in a silo.

'

• Deciding what characteristics need monitoring and inspection on torque-controlled assembly, welding and press operations

• New product introduction from first builds through to stable production

• Root cause investigations driven to verified closure

• Control plans, work instructions and inspection criteria

• Process improvement that cuts defects and steadies output as volume climbs

• Daily floor support, including the nonconforming call in real time

• Turning process data into reporting that holds up with management, mostly in Excel

:

• Process or manufacturing engineering in a production environment

• Working knowledge of torque-controlled assembly, welding or press operations, and what needs controlling on them

• New product introduction experience from the beginning

• Comfortable where priorities shift and specs are not fixed

• Strong Excel and the ability to present data clearly

:

• Quality engineering exposure: control plans, PFMEA, 8D, PPAP or APQP

• Wire harness experience

• Automotive, aerospace or electro-mechanical assembly background

• Minitab or similar

Hands-on welding or press operation is not required. Understanding what drives quality in those processes is. There is also no automated quality management system here. Process data lives in Excel, with Minitab available. Some engineers find that liberating after enterprise software. Others do not.

: $75,000 to $90,000, placed by experience

: Discretionary annual bonus

: Medical, dental and vision, 401k with match, three weeks PTO, paid holidays

: Full-time, on site in Henderson, five days
