Temporary Netsuite Developer Jobs (NOW HIRING)

Job Title: Manufacturing Engineer

Job Description

The Manufacturing Engineer leads and mentors a cross-functional engineering team in a fast-paced manufacturing environment, driving process development, continuous improvement, and scalable production. This role focuses on optimizing manufacturing output, supporting project-based and escalated production issues, and ensuring that facility and product goals are consistently achieved. The Manufacturing Engineer works predominantly on the manufacturing floor, collaborating closely with production, engineering, quality, and operations teams to identify and address process gaps, equipment challenges, and material flow issues. The position also plays a key role in translating engineering bills of materials (EBOMs) to manufacturing bills of materials (MBOMs), scaling existing lines, and setting up new manufacturing lines.

Responsibilities

• Lead, mentor, and direct an engineering team that includes a mechanical designer, manufacturing engineer, and multiple engineering technicians.
• Support project-based initiatives and escalated work items in a fast-paced manufacturing environment.
• Drive process development efforts to optimize manufacturing output, including cycle time, yield, and overall efficiency.
• Collaborate with production, engineering, quality, and operations departments to ensure product and facility output goals are met.
• Work predominantly on the manufacturing floor to understand and resolve gaps, challenges, and opportunities related to processes, equipment, and material flow.
• Lead production issue escalation and on-floor troubleshooting for mechanical, electrical, and process-related problems, ensuring rapid containment and resolution.
• Coach, demonstrate, and implement lean manufacturing techniques to support continuous improvement and standardized work.
• Communicate regularly with leadership and department heads to summarize progress toward high-priority projects and operational goals.
• Design and optimize inverter assembly processes to improve performance and enable scalable operations.
• Translate EBOMs to MBOMs within a PLM-integrated environment, ensuring accurate material consumption and manufacturability.
• Support the setup, ramp-up, and scaling of new and existing manufacturing lines.
• Utilize Manufacturing Execution System (MES) integration and NetSuite ERP for routing, operations, and work order management.
• Apply 3D CAD tools, ideally CREO or SolidWorks, to design fixtures, layouts, and validate product manufacturability.
• Use kanban systems and other lean tools to manage material flow and improve material consumption accuracy.
• Mentor junior engineers and technicians, fostering a collaborative, high-performance team environment.
• Manage and coordinate project activities, ensuring timelines, deliverables, and manufacturing objectives are achieved.

Essential Skills

• Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, preferably in Electrical Engineering, with Mechanical Engineering also considered.
• 5+ years of experience in a fast-paced manufacturing engineering role.
• Strong working knowledge of NetSuite routing, operations, and work order management.
• Proven ability to translate EBOMs to MBOMs in a PLM-integrated environment.
• Proficiency in 3D CAD, ideally CREO or SolidWorks, for designing fixtures, layouts, and validating product manufacturability.
• Hands-on experience in manufacturing engineering, including process development and optimization.
• Demonstrated capability in continuous improvement and lean manufacturing methodologies.
• Experience with Manufacturing Execution System (MES) integration.
• Ability to lead production issue escalation and perform on-floor troubleshooting for mechanical, electrical, and process issues.
• Strong project management skills with the ability to manage multiple initiatives in a fast-paced environment.

Additional Skills & Qualifications

• Experience designing and optimizing inverter assembly processes.
• Experience in standardizing work and supporting line setup and ramp-ups.
• Familiarity with kanban systems for material and workflow management.
• Understanding of material consumption accuracy and its impact on manufacturing performance.
