Manufacturing Engineer

Aegis is partnered with a leading manufacturer of tank trailers, pressure vessels, and custom process equipment used across food & beverage, chemical, oilfield, and industrial markets. This organization recently invested over $100M into a state-of-the-art manufacturing facility and continues to expand its engineering and manufacturing teams to support future growth. Their environment is highly collaborative, hands-on, and focused on advanced manufacturing, automation, and continuous improvement.

They are seeking a Manufacturing Engineer to support production operations, process improvements, new equipment implementation, and manufacturing optimization within a custom metal fabrication environment.

Responsibilities:

• Support and improve manufacturing processes related to metal fabrication, welding, cutting, forming, and assembly
• Spend approximately 60% of time on the production floor supporting manufacturing operations
• Develop and maintain work instructions, SOPs, and process documentation
• Troubleshoot production issues and assist with root cause analysis
• Support new equipment installations and process implementation projects
• Create and modify 2D AutoCAD layouts and fixture designs
• Analyze production performance including cycle times, downtime, and scrap reduction opportunities
• Work closely with production, quality, and engineering teams to improve efficiency and throughput
• Assist with continuous improvement initiatives throughout the facility

Requirements:

• Bachelor's Degree in Manufacturing, Industrial, Mechanical, Process, or related Engineering field
• Manufacturing engineering experience within a metal fabrication, welding, machining, or industrial manufacturing environment
• AutoCAD experience, particularly with 2D layouts and fixture design
• Strong mechanical aptitude and hands-on problem-solving ability
• Comfortable spending significant time on the manufacturing floor
• Strong communication skills and ability to work cross-functionally

Preferred Experience:

• Metal fabrication processes including welding, bending, forming, and cutting
• NetSuite ERP experience
• Lean Manufacturing or Six Sigma experience
• Automation, robotics, or capital equipment project exposure
• Custom manufacturing or low-volume production environments

Why This Opportunity?

• Brand-new, state-of-the-art manufacturing facility
• Highly visible engineering role with direct impact on production
• Opportunity to work on custom-engineered products rather than repetitive manufacturing
• Growing engineering team with strong long-term growth potential
• No travel required

This is an excellent opportunity for a hands-on Manufacturing Engineer who enjoys being on the production floor, solving problems, and driving continuous improvement within a custom metal fabrication environment.
