What are the responsibilities and job description for the Process Engineer II position at Metric DCX?
We are looking for a hands-on Process Engineer to own and improve wire and cable manufacturing processes for a specialty manufacturer serving aerospace, medical, and automotive markets.
You’ll develop and document processes, solve production issues on the floor, and drive continuous improvement. This is not a pure desk role. You’ll stay actively involved in the equipment, the processes, and the people building the product!
What you’ll do:
- Own process documentation that drives repeatability and quality across wire and cable manufacturing
- Diagnose and resolve equipment and production-floor issues in real time
- Lead continuous improvement projects focused on safety, flow, yield, inspection, testing, and capital equipment
- Train technicians and operators on new equipment, setups, and process standards
- Serve as the technical point of contact for customers and suppliers (occasional travel)
- Stay current on manufacturing technologies, industry standards, and best practices
What we’re looking for:
- Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Science, or Mathematics with 3 years of manufacturing or quality engineering experience, or 5 years of equivalent hands-on manufacturing engineering experience
- Strong mechanical aptitude with real experience using shop tools and diagnosing, repairing, and maintaining mechanical or electromechanical systems
- Solid working knowledge of MS Office, MRP/ERP systems, and CAD
- Experience creating technical documentation, including BOMs and routings
- Project management experience and working knowledge of Statistical Process Control (SPC)
- Ability to communicate clearly with both technical and non-technical teams
Nice to have:
- Direct experience in wire and cable manufacturing
- Familiarity with 3D modeling software and PLC programming
- Strong electromechanical and electrical troubleshooting skills
- Lean or Six Sigma process improvement training
If this matches your background and you want a hands-on engineering role where your technical skills still matter every day, apply here!
Salary : $90,000 - $100,000
