Do you thrive on dialing in automated equipment for perfect parts?
Help us stand up a new manufacturing cell and scale an innovative product from pilot to full-rate production. If you enjoy interpreting inspection data, tweaking parameters, and collaborating with engineers to lock in robust processes, this role is built for you.
Why this role?
- You’ll own set-up through run for automated laminating and die-cut systems
- You’ll apply SPC to keep the process stable and predictable
- You’ll be a key voice as we launch new equipment and continuously improve
What will you tackle each shift?
- Prepare, start up, and operate automated lamination and rotary die-cut machinery
- Adjust controls and process conditions to protect quality and throughput
- Use custom machine software plus automated inspection/vision (e.g., Keyence) to validate every move
- Read dimensional and CMM results, then make the right corrective tweaks
- Verify parts using visual checks, calipers, CMM, and automated inspection tools
- Apply basic SPC to monitor trends and act before variation impacts yield
- Handle light troubleshooting and preventive maintenance
- Complete production and quality documentation accurately
- Partner with engineering and operations on process improvements and launch activities
Must-have qualifications
- Experience operating automated manufacturing equipment
- Familiarity with machine HMIs and automated control systems
- Proficiency with precision hand metrology (e.g., calipers)
- Foundational SPC knowledge
- Strong mechanical aptitude and troubleshooting mindset
- Ability to stand for long periods and lift materials as needed
Nice-to-have
- Lamination, film processing, or rotary die-cutting background
- Automated inspection/vision system exposure (Keyence or similar)
- CMM experience and comfort interpreting dimensional datasets
- Experience helping launch new processes or equipment
Related proficiencies
- Die attach/bonding
- Statistical process control (SPC)
- Metal stamping & forming (progressive die)
