Your Role:

We are unable to sponsor H-1B, F-1 OPT, and STEM OPT extension at this time.

As a Senior Electrical Manufacturing Engineer, you will develop, implement, and refine manufacturing processes to improve productivity, ensure workplace safety, and enable high-quality output in an industrial production environment. This is a broad and high-impact role within a growing company, providing the opportunity to optimize supplier engagement and technical oversight, lead process improvements, and contribute to the expansion of an innovative and evolving product portfolio, with an emphasis on electrical and PCBA-based systems. This is an onsite role.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Lead the design, development, documentation, and optimization of manufacturing processes for PCBAs, electrical assemblies, and electromechanical systems.
  • Champion safety and process efficiency through optimized line layout, tooling, and documentation.
  • Drive improvements in test coverage through effective fixture design and test method development.
  • Drive cross-functional initiatives with Design Engineering, Test Engineering, Quality, and Operations to resolve non-conformances and support continuous improvement.
  • Engage and manage technical performance of preferred supply partners to ensure incoming quality, yield, and capacity for critical electrical components, PCBAs, and sub-systems.
  • Drive and support cost control, supplier selection, and product improvement initiatives across all phases of the product release lifecycle.
  • Collaborate with NPI teams to identify design constraints for manufacturability and testability; deliver actionable DFM and DFT recommendations.
  • Develop NPI Manufacturing Plans to establish production readiness criteria, meet quality gate requirements, and accelerate product ramp schedules.
  • Demonstrate proficiency with product maturity tools, including DFMEA, PFMEA, P-Diagrams, and Control Plans.
  • Apply structured root cause investigation methodologies (e.g., 5-Why, Fishbone, Fault Tree) to resolve yield, quality, and electrical test-related issues.

Qualifications:

  • Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field
  • Minimum 5–8 years of experience in high-volume, low-mix PCBA or electrical system manufacturing; experience in automotive, networking, or medical electronics preferred
  • Proficient in PCB design and analysis tools such as Altium, OrCAD, and Valor; experience reviewing Gerber files for manufacturability and test coverage.
  • Experience with environmental protection strategies including conformal coating material selection, preparation, application, and best practice handling and rework procedures
  • Strong foundation in statistical tools and methodologies, including process capability analysis, design of experiments (DOE), statistical process control (SPC), and test coverage analysis
  • Demonstrated ability to solve complex electrical manufacturing challenges and communicate effectively across engineering and operations teams
  • Experience collaborating with Electronics Manufacturing Services (EMS) partners; exposure to industrial test automation and electrical safety standards is a plus

Pay Range: $140,000 - $160,000

*Base salary only. Salary is dependent on multiple factors including, but not limited to, experience and location.

**Additional compensation may include equity, bonuses, stipends, medical, dental, vision, 401(k), and long-term disability insurance.

If you believe you belong to any of the categories of protected veterans listed below, please indicate by making the appropriate selection. As a government contractor subject to the Vietnam Era Veterans Readjustment Assistance Act (VEVRAA), we request this information in order to measure the effectiveness of the outreach and positive recruitment efforts we undertake pursuant to VEVRAA. Classification of protected categories is as follows:

A "disabled veteran" is one of the following: a veteran of the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service who is entitled to compensation (or who but for the receipt of military retired pay would be entitled to compensation) under laws administered by the Secretary of Veterans Affairs; or a person who was discharged or released from active duty because of a service-connected disability.

A "recently separated veteran" means any veteran during the three-year period beginning on the date of such veteran's discharge or release from active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval, or air service.

An "active duty wartime or campaign badge veteran" means a veteran who served on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service during a war, or in a campaign or expedition for which a campaign badge has been authorized under the laws administered by the Department of Defense.

An "Armed forces service medal veteran" means a veteran who, while serving on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service, participated in a United States military operation for which an Armed Forces service medal was awarded pursuant to Executive Order 12985.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
