• Maintain a revision-controlled database of customer and internal prints and specifications.
• Prepare cost estimates for new and revised parts.
• Design basic work holding fixtures and maintain a library of tooling drawings.
• Maintain the facility layout and work with production to improve it for space and cost savings.
• Communicate with customer engineering departments and lead cross-functional teams on new process introductions.

Qualifications

• 2 to 5 years of experience in manufacturing engineering or a related field.
• Strong technical and engineering problem-solving skills in a manufacturing environment.
• Proficiency in AutoCAD or other CAD/CAM software.
• Working knowledge of an MRP/ERP system such as JobBOSS or SAP.
• Strong organizational and record-keeping skills, with the ability to manage multiple tasks daily.
• Self-starter who can work independently with minimal supervision.
• Comfortable working in a busy, open plant environment with frequent interruptions.
• Strong communication skills for working with production, quality, sales, and planning.

Join us to be part of a small, hands-on team backed by a global ag equipment group. We value technical problem-solvers who want ownership of their work and the chance to build things the right way.
