You'll work directly with our production, fabrication, maintenance, quality, and R&D teams to design practical solutions that improve efficiency, quality, safety, and manufacturability.

This Role Is a Great Fit If...

You enjoy working with the people actually building the product. You aren't afraid to walk onto the floor, grab a print, look at a fixture, talk with a welder or mechanic, and figure out how to make the process better.
