Box-build and Electro-mechanical Engineer

Job DescriptionJob Description Role Overview The Box Build & Electro-Mechanical Engineer supports the manufacturing of complete electro-mechanical systems by reviewing customer-supplied data, drawings, and specifications; identifying opportunities for improved manufacturability; and ensuring efficient, accurate production execution. This role focuses on the design, development, and integration of mechanical components within electronic assemblies, while also optimizing the assembly process, developing tools and fixtures, and troubleshooting mechanical issues to support smooth production. Key Responsibilities Customer Data & Drawing Review Review and interpret customer drawings, BOMs, schematics, 3D models, and assembly instructions for PCB and box build assemblies. Verify mechanical and electrical integration details such as dimensions, component placement, mounting, connector clearance, wire harness routing, and enclosure fit. Identify potential manufacturability issues (DFM/DFA) and provide constructive feedback to the customer in order to improve production efficiency, reduce costs, and enhance quality. Work closely with customer engineering teams to ensure all requirements are met, while developing, implementing, and maintaining manufacturing processes for box build assemblies that integrate PCBs and other electro-mechanical components into complete enclosures. Assembly Process Optimization & Tooling Collaborate with manufacturing teams to optimize workflows for efficiency, repeatability, and quality. Develop and implement jigs, fixtures, and assembly aids to ensure consistent builds and reduce production time. Refine mechanical featuressuch as mounting mechanisms and enclosure layoutsto improve assembly ease and reliability. Review, modify, and validate process activities from initial product definition to production release, focusing on efficiency, cost reduction, and quality. Document manufacturing methods and operation sequences, including line layouts, to optimize workflow and meet production demands. Troubleshooting & Production Support Support production during first-article builds, pilot runs, and engineering change implementations. Troubleshoot mechanical fit, alignment, and integration issues, implementing corrective actions as needed. Update processes promptly when changes occur to prevent recurring issues. Train staff on new and updated processes to ensure consistent execution and knowledge transfer. Quality Assurance & Compliance Ensure assemblies meet IPC, ISO, and customer-specific quality standards. Participate in in-process and final inspections to confirm compliance with approved drawings and procedures. Assist with root cause analysis for mechanical or integration defects. Ensure box build processes are consistent and repeatable to meet yield and efficiency requirements, including writing and executing product validations for both PCB and box build processes. Skills & Qualifications Education:

Bachelors degree in Mechanical Engineering, Electro-Mechanical Engineering, or equivalent work experience. Technical Skills:

Strong ability to read and interpret mechanical drawings, electrical schematics, and wiring diagrams. Proficiency with CAD viewing tools (SolidWorks, AutoCAD) for reviewing and validating designs. Knowledge of PCB integration into mechanical systems, electro-mechanical assembly processes, and enclosure/wire harness fabrication. Familiarity with IPC-610, IPC/WHMA-620, J-STD-001, ISO 9001, and AS9100 standards.

Process Improvement:

Proven experience optimizing assembly processes, creating tooling/fixtures, and troubleshooting mechanical integration issues. Communication:

Skilled in conveying technical requirements and manufacturability feedback to customers and production teams. Organizational Skills:

Strong attention to detail with the ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment. Pay Range: $100K to $120K Benefits: Vacation Dental Medical 401K #J-18808-Ljbffr
