Job description

Supplier Industrialization Engineer – Metallic Components

The Federal Group USA | Bingham Farms, MI | Full-Time | International Travel

A week in the role

On Monday morning, you’re reviewing a fresh set of prints for a precision casting, checking tolerances, materials, and revisions before green-lighting quotes with overseas partners. Midweek, you’re on video with a machine shop in Asia, validating process controls and aligning on inspection plans. By Friday, you’ve wrapped a customer kickoff, captured factory requests for deviation, and briefed our COO on a schedule risk—action plan in hand. Your office is our supplier network: factory floors, audit rooms, and technical calls—not a production plant.

About The Federal Group USA

We are a sourced manufacturing partner delivering precision metal parts—castings, forgings, cold formed components, CNC-machined parts, sheet metal, and welded assemblies—to customers across North America. Our team is lean and experienced. Engineers work directly with the CEO and COO, own programs end to end, and see their decisions move the business. No layers. No program-cycle whiplash.

What you’ll own
  • Shepherd metal component programs from sample development through stable production across a global supplier base
  • Counsel customers on optimal processes, materials, and finishing; translate design intent into manufacturable plans
  • Vet new work for feasibility and readiness; drive clarity on prints (tolerances, specs, revisions, materials) and secure formal sign-offs when needed
  • Scrutinize RFQs/quotes for technical accuracy; field supplier questions throughout quoting
  • Oversee day-to-day supplier performance and partner with Sourcing to align capabilities to program needs
  • Travel internationally for factory tours and audits with the Sourcing team
  • Team with Quality/SQE on nonconformances, corrective actions, supplier inspection reports, and in-process/incoming checks
  • Surface technical updates, deviations, and factory asks to Sales for customer action
  • Lead project kickoffs with both customers and vendors
  • Provide routine status to internal/external stakeholders; escalate at-risk timelines directly to the COO/CEO
What you bring
  • Deep, hands-on familiarity with castings, forgings, cold headed parts, and/or machined components—you know failure modes and what “good” is
  • Experience in supplier quality, sourcing/program launch, or manufacturing engineering with significant vendor engagement
  • Fluency in PPAP, APQP, 8D, corrective actions, GD&T, and print interpretation
  • Sharp project management: coordinating cross-functional work, meeting deadlines, communicating clearly
  • Comfort with direct customer interaction and international supplier collaboration
  • Willingness and ability to travel internationally for audits and on-site reviews
  • Hindi language skills are a strong plus
  • Bachelor’s in Mechanical, Manufacturing, or Industrial Engineering (or equivalent experience)
Why you’ll love it here
  • Variety: Six metalworking disciplines and a broad customer mix—every program is different
  • Visibility: Direct access to the CEO/COO; decisions move quickly
  • Global exposure: Collaborate with international factories and visit them on-site
  • Stability: Longstanding customer and supplier relationships
  • Location: Based in our Bingham Farms, MI office
Core proficiencies
  • GD&T
  • Aerospace Manufacturing
  • Blueprint Reading
Tools and technologies you may encounter
  • CNC Automation Solutions
  • 3D Modeling
  • Hardness Tester
  • Screw Machine
  • Stamping Press
  • Roll Forming Machine
  • Extrusion Machine
  • Die Cast Machine (Cold Chamber)
  • CAD Software
