• Participate in and support equipment acceptance testing with customers and internal teams.
• Collaborate with manufacturing engineers, tooling engineers, and equipment designers.
• Review manufacturing concepts involving fabrication, machining, and assembly.
• Apply knowledge of metallic and composite materials and manufacturing processes.
• Complete engineering models, layouts, and test plans within established budgets and schedules.
• Present system models, designs, and project status to internal and external customers.
• Support projects across multiple sites as needed.

What We’re Looking For:

• Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering or a related engineering discipline; equivalent relevant experience will also be considered.
• 10+ years of relevant engineering experience.
• Experience with tooling, machinery, automated manufacturing equipment, or assembly systems.
• Strong understanding of manufacturing processes, including fabrication, machining, and assembly.
• Knowledge of metallic and composite materials and processing.
• Experience developing engineering requirements and technical documentation.
• Experience modifying facility layouts or equipment integration layouts using CAD.
• Strong communication and organizational skills.
• Ability to work independently and effectively in a fast-paced team environment.
• Detail-oriented approach with the ability to manage multiple projects and deadlines.

Preferred Experience:

• Proficiency with CATIA V5, NX, or similar CAD software.
• Experience developing system models for tooling or production equipment.
• Experience developing equipment test plans and acceptance criteria.
• Experience participating in customer or internal equipment acceptance testing.
• Experience with PLM systems and engineering data management.
• Experience supporting aerospace tooling or automated manufacturing systems.
• Proficiency with Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint.

Why Consider This Opportunity?

• Work on advanced aerospace manufacturing and tooling programs.
• Opportunity to work with complex machinery, tooling, and automated production systems.
• Collaborate with engineering, manufacturing, tooling, and customer teams.
• Multiple location options: Michigan, California, or Washington.
