Tutor Intelligence
Manufacturing Engineer (Process, Test & NPI Development)
Tutor Intelligence, Boston, Massachusetts, us, 02298
Overview
Tutor Intelligence builds advanced robotic systems that automate complex, repetitive work — from warehouse operations to manufacturing environments. We’re a fast-growing team of brilliant engineers and operators passionate about creating reliable, scalable automation that blends hardware, software, and human insight. As we scale production and deployment, we’re looking for a hands-on Manufacturing Engineer who thrives at the intersection of design, production, and field reliability — someone who loves to build, fix, and improve everything they touch. You won’t be stuck on a single line or behind a screen. You’ll design fixtures, write test procedures, own the build process, and see your work deployed in live robotic systems across the country. You’ll work shoulder-to-shoulder with design engineers, manufacturing techs, and field teams to make every robot more reliable, repeatable, and easy to build. This is a high-visibility, high-impact role where your decisions directly affect production quality, uptime, and customer success. At Tutor Intelligence, you’ll join a team of brilliant engineers, makers, and operators building the next generation of intelligent automation. Our systems are already transforming warehouse operations — and we’re expanding into advanced manufacturing, where reliability, speed, and human–robot collaboration are redefining what’s possible. If you’re looking for a role where your ideas are heard, your work ships fast, and your team genuinely loves solving hard problems together — you’ll feel at home here. Responsibilities
What you will own Process Design & Continuous Improvement: Define and optimize assembly and test processes for robotic subassemblies. Author and maintain build documentation, work instructions, and QA checklists. Own configuration control and BOM accuracy within First Resonance ION. Identify process bottlenecks, propose DFM/DFA improvements, and track results. Test & Fixture Development Design and build fixtures, jigs, and calibration setups to streamline production. Develop automated or semi-automated test stations for repeatable QA. Collaborate with software and electrical engineers to capture and analyze test data. Improve test coverage, yield, and diagnostic speed across product lines. New Product Introduction (NPI) Support prototype and pilot builds, ensuring smooth transition from engineering to production. Validate build methods and test procedures for new subsystems. Provide DFM/DFA and serviceability feedback to design teams. Build the documentation and tooling that enable scalable manufacturing. Field & Reliability Engineering Support Travel to customer sites for troubleshooting, upgrades, and beta installations. Perform on-site root cause analysis and feed improvements back into production. Support field teams with diagnostics, test procedures, and fixture design. Qualifications
Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical, Electrical, Industrial, or Manufacturing Engineering, or equivalent hands-on experience. 1–4 years of experience in manufacturing, test, or process engineering (internships count). Strong mechanical aptitude and comfort working with wiring, pneumatics, and sensors. Able to read mechanical drawings and electrical schematics. Proficient with hand tools, test equipment, and metrology instruments. Excellent documentation, communication, and problem-solving skills. Willingness to travel 25–40% for site support and upgrades. Preferred Skills
Experience designing fixtures and tooling in SolidWorks or Onshape. Familiarity with IP, Modbus, or CAN bus communication protocols. Comfort with Linux/CLI for log retrieval and basic test scripting. Understanding of PLC/HMI logic and I/O testing. Exposure to Lean manufacturing, 5S, or continuous improvement methodologies. What’s In It for You
Own real systems:
Your fixtures, processes, and test setups will be used across every build. See your impact fast:
Rapid iteration cycles — your improvements ship to production and customer sites within weeks. Cross-functional exposure:
Work directly with design, software, and field teams. Growth path:
Build the foundation to advance into Senior Manufacturing Engineer, NPI Engineer, or Process Development Lead roles. Modern tools:
Work inside First Resonance ION — a modern, data-driven factory OS. Startup culture:
High trust, high impact, low bureaucracy.
