Overview
We are seeking a hands-on Manufacturing Engineering Manager to lead, mentor, and develop a team of engineers and technicians in a highly manual, precision-driven medical device manufacturing environment. This individual will play a key leadership role in optimizing production efficiency, driving continuous improvement, and implementing innovative solutions that enhance product quality and operational performance. If you’re an experienced engineering leader with a strong background in manual manufacturing processes, validation (IQ/OQ/PQ), and a passion for mentoring teams while remaining hands-on with technical work — we want to hear from you. Responsibilities
Lead, manage, and develop a team of 4–5 engineers, technicians, and machinists, fostering a culture of growth, accountability, and technical excellence. Provide technical guidance and mentorship to engineers and technicians, ensuring high performance and professional development. Develop and implement manufacturing processes, procedures, and equipment to optimize production efficiency, product quality, and operator safety. Collaborate cross-functionally with Design Engineering, Quality Assurance, and Production to introduce and validate new products and processes. Drive continuous improvement and Lean manufacturing initiatives to enhance productivity, reduce waste, and improve overall operational efficiency. Oversee validation activities (IQ/OQ/PQ) and ensure proper documentation and compliance with FDA, ISO, and internal quality standards. Evaluate, source, and implement new technologies, automation systems, and materials in collaboration with suppliers and vendors. Manage and track department budgets, cost controls, and capital expenditures. Serve as a working manager — leading by example, engaging directly with operators, and contributing to problem-solving on the production floor. Ensure compliance with safety, regulatory, and environmental standards while maintaining a culture of continuous learning and innovation. Qualifications
10+ years of experience in manufacturing or process engineering within the medical device industry (high-volume, low-cost product environment preferred). Hands-on experience working with manual manufacturing equipment. Strong understanding of validation protocols (IQ/OQ/PQ). Electrical engineering background (PCB layout experience preferred); ChemE or MechE considered with relevant manufacturing experience. Prior experience managing or leading a team — open to candidates with Lead Engineer or Supervisor experience who are ready for management. Proven ability to collaborate closely with production operators, not just fellow engineers. Excellent problem-solving, analytical, and interpersonal skills with the patience to work effectively across diverse teams. Seniority level
