Manufacturing Engineer

Griffon Aerospace

Company Overview

Griffon Aerospace is a trusted aerospace solutions provider based in Madison, Alabama, specializing in the design, development, and operation of advanced unmanned aircraft systems (UAS). Since 1995, we have delivered over 12,000 unmanned air vehicles to the Department of Defense, allied nations, and commercial customers. We pride ourselves on being a lion-hearted partner, designing, building, and flying the most capable and intelligent aerial systems that give our servicemen an unfair advantage wherever they fly.

Position Summary

We are looking for a Manufacturing Engineer II/III specializing in quality and process implementation in our Unmanned Arial Systems (UAS) production. The ideal candidate will facilitate quality inspection implementation, standard processes, and proper tooling to meet AS9100/ISO9001 standards.

Key Responsibilities

  • Process Architecture: Design, implement, and optimize end-to-end manufacturing flows for airframe integration and avionics assembly.
  • Quality System Implementation: Lead the deployment of AS9100 or ISO9001 standards on the shop floor. Establish "First Article Inspection" (FAI) protocols for complex electrical assemblies.
  • DFM/DFA Leadership: Act as the primary bridge between R&D and Production. Review new designs for manufacturability, focusing on error-proofing (Poka-Yoke) and assembly repeatability.
  • Yield Improvement: Monitor production data to identify trends. Reduce variability in harness crimping, soldering, and structural bonding.
  • MRB & Root Cause: Lead the Material Review Board (MRB) to find the root cause and implement permanent corrective actions.
  • Automation & Tooling: Identify opportunities for automation in testing and assembly to remove human error from critical flight-path components.
Required Qualifications
  • Education: B.S. in Manufacturing, Electrical, or Aerospace Engineering.
  • Experience: 2-10 years of experience in a manufacturing environment (Aerospace, Medical Device, or Automotive).
  • Quality Toolkit: Strong mastery of PFMEA (Process Failure Mode and Effects Analysis), Control Plans, and Gauge R&R.
  • Technical Literacy: Ability to interpret GD&T (Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing) and complex IPC-620 electrical standards.
Preferred Skills
  • Certified Six Sigma Green or Black Belt.
  • Hands-on experience with ERP/MES implementation (e.g., SAP, Oracle, or Plex).
  • Prior experience in the UAS/EVTOL industry or with high-voltage battery integration.
Why Join Griffon Aerospace?

At Griffon Aerospace, you'll be part of a team developing next generation unmanned aerial systems for national defense. You'll gain exposure to cutting-edge technologies in a dynamic, fast-paced environment where your contributions directly impact critical defense capabilities. We offer opportunities for professional growth and the chance to work on innovative projects that make a difference.
