Role:
Manufacturing Engineer
Location:
Suwanee, GA (1st or 2nd Shift onsite)
Pay:
$85,000-$95,000
Type:
Full-Time / Permanent
Position Overview The Manufacturing Engineer is responsible for developing, optimizing, and sustaining manufacturing processes for electronic assemblies to ensure superior quality, efficiency, and cost-effectiveness. This role partners closely with cross-functional teams—including engineering, production, and quality—to support New Product Introductions (NPI), drive continuous improvement, and enhance yield performance within an SMT/PCB assembly environment.
Key Responsibilities
Lead New Product Introduction (NPI) initiatives by defining process requirements, creating process documentation, and facilitating seamless transition into production.
Develop, document, and optimize SMT, wave solder, selective solder, and conformal coating processes to ensure robust and repeatable results.
Collaborate with design and engineering teams to enhance Design for Manufacturability (DFM) and Design for Test (DFT) principles.
Partner with quality teams to ensure full compliance with IPC standards and customer‑specific requirements.
Train and mentor production personnel in proper process execution, equipment operation, and best manufacturing practices.
Analyze production data—yields, defects, and cycle times—to identify root causes and implement effective corrective actions.
Evaluate and qualify new materials, equipment, and process technologies to improve manufacturing performance.
Drive cost reduction and process improvement initiatives using Lean and Six Sigma methodologies.
Provide technical support during audits, customer visits, and regulatory compliance reviews.
Knowledge & Expertise
Strong understanding of Design for Manufacturability (DFM) and Design for Test (DFT) for electronic assemblies.
Advanced knowledge of IPC-A-610 and IPC J-STD-001 standards.
Proficiency with Lean Manufacturing principles, ERP/MES systems, and manufacturing process documentation.
Familiarity with CAD tools, data reporting, and process control systems.
Hands‑on experience with Valor process engineering tools and thermal profiling, DOE, and SPC techniques.
Strong troubleshooting skills for electronic assembly and PCB‑related issues.
Minimum Qualifications
6+ years of hands‑on experience in SMT process engineering or equivalent manufacturing engineering role.
Proven ability to interpret PCA assembly drawings, technical documentation, and manufacturing specifications.
Strong analytical and problem‑solving skills with the ability to identify critical parameters, collect data, and develop effective process controls.
Preferred Qualifications
Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical, Electrical, Industrial, or Manufacturing Engineering (or equivalent experience).
3+ years of experience in electronics manufacturing, preferably within SMT/PCB assembly operations.
Comprehensive understanding of IPC standards and SMT manufacturing equipment (stencil printing, reflow, AOI/X‑ray, wave/selective solder, conformal coating).
Demonstrated success in implementing Lean, Six Sigma, or other structured improvement methodologies.
Strong interpersonal and communication skills, with the ability to collaborate effectively across departments.
Safety & Compliance
Adhere to all safety policies, practices, and procedures, and promptly report unsafe conditions to supervisors or Human Resources.
Support the company’s Quality Management System (QMS) and maintain compliance with ISO, environmental, health, safety, and security standards.
