What you will do
Thermal limits are the hidden bottleneck holding back the world's most advanced technologies-AI infrastructure, semiconductor equipment, power electronics, and mission-critical defense systems. At Johnson Controls, we don't work around those limits-we eliminate them.
Powered by our breakthrough Stack Forging process, we engineer high-performance thermal components and integrated cooling loop solutions designed for direct deployment into AI, HPC, and other demanding environments. The result: a best-in-class thermal management platform built for the systems that push performance to the edge-and beyond.
Join the movement as a Builder on the Stack Forging Thermal Solutions team at Johnson Controls as a Process Engineering Manager n Burlington, MA.
As a Process Engineering Manager at Johnson Controls, you'll play a pivotal role in shaping the future of our advanced manufacturing technologies. You'll lead the development, optimization, and control of complex processes that power JCI's breakthrough innovations-bringing together expertise across process control, metallurgy, machinery controls, chemistry, and experimental design. In this role, you won't just manage processes-you'll build and scale a high-performing Process Engineering team, fostering a culture that is not only technically rigorous, but also collaborative, and supportive. You'll spend time both in the lab and on the production floor, translating theory into practice, accelerating learning cycles, and driving continuous improvement where it matters most.
If you have experience developing a wide range of technical skills over your career, including deep expertise in a few relevant domains, such as printing, laser processing, coil handling, chemistry, metallurgy, controls, embedded firmware, PLCs, and experimental design, this could be your next opportunity! You will have the opportunity to delegate effectively to your team by establishing clear, productive organizational systems and naturally evaluating and adjusting them.
This position requires an onsite presence at our Burlington, MA, location. Candidates must be commuting distance to the facility, or able to relocate.
How you will do it

• Technical Leadership - Run and participate in cross-disciplinary project teams working to address technical challenges or improve process capability
• Manufacturing Process Development - Contribute to a wide range of projects to improve the team's manufacturing technology, eventually becoming a go-to expert on the Stack Forging process across the organization
• Hiring and Onboarding - Rapidly grow the process engineering team while maintaining a healthy culture and technical excellence
• Mentorship - Lead and mentor the process engineering team to develop core engineering and process development skills, ensuring technical excellence and continuous growth.
• Technology Roadmapping and Stakeholder Management - Manage the roadmap for core process technologies, taking input from a wide range of stakeholders (spanning production technicians to commercial executives) and crafting a technology roadmap that creates meaningful business value with the team's resources on a reasonable timescale.

What you will need
