Manufacturing Process Engineer

Carrollton, Texas

At LiquidStack, we’re redefining what’s possible in the data center world. As a global leader in advanced liquid cooling solutions, we’re powering the future of AI, edge computing, and high-performance systems. Our team is growing, and we’re looking for skilled professionals who want to be part of something innovative and impactful.

POSITION SUMMARY

The Manufacturing / Process Engineer is a process-owning, hands-on role supporting final assembly operations in a fast-paced, scaling manufacturing environment. This engineer is responsible for developing, improving, and sustaining safe, repeatable, and high-quality manufacturing processes for complex mechanical and electromechanical assemblies.

This role is ideal for an engineer with 2–4 years of experience in HVAC, mechanical systems, automotive, or similar final assembly environments who thrives on shop-floor engagement, Lean execution, and ownership of processes—not just documentation. The role partners closely with Production, Quality, Supply Chain, and Design Engineering to ensure products are built right the first time and can scale reliably as demand grows.

At LiquidStack, this role reflects our behaviors—Flexible, Collaborative, Driven, Agile, Customer-Centric, and Attentive—by adapting quickly, owning problems end-to-end, and maintaining a strong safety and quality mindset.

ESSENTIAL DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES


Process Ownership & Final Assembly Support

  • Own and continuously improve assigned final assembly manufacturing processes, from standard work development through execution and sustainment.
  • Develop, maintain, and improve routings, work instructions, process flows, and visual standards.
  • Provide daily, hands-on shop-floor support to troubleshoot process issues, defects, bottlenecks, and variability.
  • Read and interpret mechanical, electrical, and fluid assembly drawings, bills of materials (BOMs), and engineering documentation.
  • Support line balancing, takt time and cycle-time analysis, workstation layout, and ergonomic improvements.
  • Support basic tooling, fixtures, and work-cell improvements to enhance safety, quality, and throughput.


Lean Manufacturing, 5S/6S & Continuous Improvement

  • Apply Lean manufacturing methodologies to improve Safety, Quality, Delivery, and Cost (SQDC).
  • Demonstrate applied Lean experience, including participation in Kaizen events, waste elimination, and standard work implementation.
  • Lead and sustain 5S/6S initiatives, audits, corrective actions, and visual management within assigned areas.
  • Use structured problem-solving tools (A3, root cause analysis, DMAIC) to drive measurable improvements.


Quality Systems & ISO Discipline

  • Operate effectively within ISO-based quality management systems and manufacturing controls.
  • Partner with Quality to support PFMEAs, control plans, nonconformance investigations, and CAPA.
  • Promote “build quality into the process” principles rather than reliance on inspection.
  • Ensure process documentation is accurate, current, and audit-ready.

Safety-First Mindset

  • Actively promote and model a safety-first culture on the manufacturing floor.
  • Ensure processes, tooling, and workstations comply with safety and ergonomic standards.
  • Participate in safety audits, risk assessments, and hazard mitigation activities.
  • Reinforce safe behaviors and expectations with operators and peers.


Scaling & Cross-Functional Collaboration

  • Support manufacturing scale-up, including new product introductions, volume increases, and process stabilization.
  • Collaborate with Design Engineering to provide design-for-manufacturability (DFM) feedback and implement engineering changes.
  • Partner with Production and Supply Chain to resolve material flow, tooling, and capacity constraints.
  • Communicate clearly and effectively with operators, supervisors, and cross-functional stakeholders.

SPECIFIC KNOWLEDGE, SKILLS AND ABILITIES


Required

  • Bachelor’s degree in mechanical, Industrial, Manufacturing, Electrical, or related Engineering discipline.
  • 2–4 years of hands-on manufacturing engineering experience in a final assembly environment.
  • Demonstrated application of Lean manufacturing principles (e.g., 5S/6S, standard work, Kaizen participation).
  • Experience supporting production directly on the shop floor.
  • Ability to read and interpret mechanical, electrical, and fluid drawings.
  • Strong analytical, organizational, and problem-solving skills.
  • Clear written and verbal communication skills.


Preferred

  • Six Sigma certification or formal Six Sigma training (Green Belt preferred).
  • Experience implementing and sustaining 5S/6S.
  • Familiarity with ISO quality systems, audits, and documentation.
  • Experience with root cause analysis, CAPA, PFMEA, and control plans.
  • Exposure to ERP/MRP systems.
  • Experience with HVAC systems, piping, fluid handling, or electromechanical assemblies.
  • Familiarity with CAD tools (AutoCAD, SolidWorks, or similar).


SPECIAL CONDITIONS OF EMPLOYMENT

  • Ability to spend significant time in a manufacturing and production environment.
  • Occasional domestic travel (up to ~20%) as business needs require.
  • Valid driver’s license: passport preferred.

Why Join Us?

  • Competitive pay with opportunities for overtime
  • Consistent day-shift schedule
  • Paid time off, holidays, and great benefits
  • Be part of an industry-disrupting company with room to grow
  • Work on innovative technologies in a collaborative, supportive environment

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

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.
