Why You’ll Love This Role
As a Process Engineer, you’ll be at the center of a fast‑paced, high‑tech manufacturing environment where your work directly influences product quality, efficiency, and throughput.
This is a hands‑on, boots‑on‑the‑ground engineering role — perfect for someone who enjoys being out on the production floor, solving real problems in real time, and working closely with operators, technicians, and multiple departments to keep products moving through the process smoothly and on schedule.
You’ll gain meaningful experience with advanced fiber‑optic cable production, collaborate with experienced engineers and cross‑functional teams, and take ownership of projects that require attention, follow‑through, and initiative. For an early‑career engineer who wants to learn quickly, build practical manufacturing expertise, and grow into larger responsibilities, this role offers an exceptional opportunity.
What You’ll Be Doing:
- Investigating manufacturing trends and helping solve real production challenges.
- Spending time on the production floor to ensure products move through each stage efficiently.
- Supporting process improvements that increase efficiency, stability, and product quality.
- Working with production teams to optimize equipment performance and resolve issues.
- Participating in new product trials and process enhancements.
- Assisting with troubleshooting, machine setups, and equipment upgrades.
- Analyzing production data to identify opportunities for improvement.
- Collaborating cross‑functionally with Engineering, Maintenance, Quality, and Production teams.
- Helping create training materials, SOPs, and technical documentation.
- Contributing to continuous improvement initiatives using Lean, 6S, and root‑cause analysis.
- Taking ownership of ongoing projects that require consistent attention and proactive problem‑solving.
What We’re Looking For:
- Bachelor’s degree in Engineering (Mechanical, Electrical, Industrial, or related field preferred).
- 0–3 years of manufacturing experience.
- Strong analytical thinking and problem‑solving skills.
- A collaborative mindset and eagerness to learn.
- Comfort working directly on the production floor and engaging with multiple departments.
- Ability to thrive in a fast‑moving manufacturing environment.
- Experience with fiber optics, wire & cable manufacturing, ERP systems, Excel, or Minitab is a plus — not required.
