Manufacturing Engineer — Indus Precision Manufacturing
Indus Precision Manufacturing is an AS9100D / ISO 9001:2015 certified, ITAR-registered precision machine shop in Congers, NY, supplying the semiconductor, aerospace, and defense industries. We are seeking a hands-on Manufacturing Engineer to own process planning, supplier sourcing, and continuous improvement across our CNC turning, milling, and finishing operations. This is an individual contributor role with real autonomy — you'll own how parts run, from print review through outside processing — and work closely with ownership and the shop floor.
What you'll do
- Read customer drawings, interpret ASME Y14.5 GD&T and applicable mil-specs, and translate them into clear, runnable shop routers and travelers in JobBOSS2
- Develop manufacturing processes for new and recurring jobs: operation sequencing, workholding, tooling, outside-process callouts, and in-process inspection points
- Select outside-process suppliers (plating, anodize, heat treat, finishing, etc); solicit, review, and compare quotes
- Lead Corrective Action Requests (CARs) and Supplier Corrective Action Requests (SCARs): root cause analysis, containment, and closeout
- Design fixtures and workholding in SolidWorks; collaborate with programmers, setup operators and inspection on first articles
- Support the floor day-to-day: troubleshoot setups, recommend parameter or tooling changes, and update routers as processes mature
- Drive continuous improvement: scrap reduction, cycle time, tool life, and operator-friendly documentation
- Maintain accurate process and revision documentation aligned with the Indus QMS
Required
- Bachelor's degree in Engineering, or equivalent hands-on experience in a precision CNC shop
- Has written routers/travelers in a job shop or contract manufacturing environment
- Reads prints fluently with a solid grasp of ASME Y14.5 GD&T
- Proficient in SolidWorks for fixture and tooling concepts
- Hands-on with JobBOSS2 or a comparable shop ERP (E2, ProShop, JobScope, etc.)
- Experience soliciting and reviewing outside-process supplier quotes
- Clear written communication for routers, RCAs, and customer correspondence
Nice to have
- AS9100 shop background and prior CAR/SCAR ownership
- Familiarity with common mil-specs encountered in defense work
- Experience with semiconductor, aerospace, or DoD/DLA part flows
Compensation
$80,000–$92,000, commensurate with experience, with room to stretch for the right candidate. Benefits, PTO, and a clear runway into a senior or lead role as the shop scales.
