Senior Manufacturing Engineer - Assembly
Apptronik · Austin, TX · Posted 8 days ago
Own the process from prototype to mass production for precision electromechanical robotic assemblies, driving yield and root-cause fixes on the assembly line.
The Manufacturing Engineer serves as the critical bridge between product design and mass production. You are responsible for the technical development, validation, and launch of robust manufacturing processes for new hardware products. Your mission is to ensure that "what is designed" can be "built at scale" by defining the equipment, tooling, and process parameters required to meet rigorous quality, cost, and throughput targets. You will champion DFx (Design for Excellence) during early-stage development and lead technical root-cause analysis for any assembly-line roadblocks.
Key Accountabilities
- Prototype & NPI Support: Partner with Engineering during early builds, providing hands-on assembly and failure-analysis support while translating design intent into scalable manufacturing processes.
- Manufacturing Definition: Develop and maintain MBOMs, Bills of Process, operation sequences, and Work Instructions. Ensure alignment with the EBOM and successful transfer into ERP/MES systems.
- Process, Tooling & Validation: Develop and qualify manufacturing processes, fixtures, jigs, and tooling for precision electromechanical assembly, alignment, routing, preload, calibration, and functional validation.
- DFM/DFA & Production Readiness: Lead manufacturability reviews, PFMEA, and technical readiness activities. Support pilot builds, production ramp, CM transfer, and ECO/MCO implementation.
- Yield & Continuous Improvement: Own manufacturing performance including first-pass yield, defects, and rework. Use production and test data to lead root-cause analysis and corrective actions.
