We are seeking a hands-on Senior Hardware Manufacturing Engineer to support the design, development, and industrialization of tooling, fixtures, and production equipment for electro-mechanical medical devices. This role owns the hardware realization strategy—from early concept tooling through outsourced fabrication and production deployment. You will work closely with R&D, Quality, Operations, and suppliers to translate process requirements into robust mechanical solutions, lead tool design activities, and fabrication activities (internally and externally), to ensure production systems are reliable, scalable, and compliant in a regulated environment.

Keyt Responsibilities

  • Lead hands-on manufacturing process development for electro-mechanical medical devices from prototype through production
  • Drive DFM/DFA reviews with R&D, ensuring designs meet manufacturability and regulatory requirements
  • Lead design, development, and validation activities for production tooling, fixtures, jigs, and test equipment ranging from simple manual tools to complex automated systems
  • Author and execute process validations (IQ/OQ/PQ) and support design transfer activities
  • Create and maintain production equipment documentation, including equipment specifications, PFMEA, equipment drawings, and BOMs.
  • Manage external machine shops, automation vendors, and contract manufacturers through RFQ, DFM review, and build iterations
  • Support supplier qualification and development, including on-site visits and process audits
  • Support low-volume pilot builds, production ramps, and continuous improvement initiatives
  • Train and mentor technicians and junior engineers on processes, tools, and best practices
  • Partner with Quality to support complaints, NCRs, audits, and inspections (FDA, ISO 13485)


Let’s Talk About Qualifications And Experience

Required:


  • Bachelor's degree in mechanical, Electrical, Manufacturing, or Biomedical Engineering (or related field)
  • 7 years of hands-on manufacturing engineering experience, preferably in medical devices or other regulated industries
  • Proficiency in 3D CAD (SolidWorks, Creo, or equivalent) with strong drawing and GD&T skills
  • Strong experience supporting electro-mechanical assembly in a production environment
  • Experience working with machine shops and contract manufacturers for custom fabrication
  • Direct experience with process validation (IQ/OQ/PQ) and design transfer
  • Working knowledge of GMP principles
  • Demonstrated ability to troubleshoot complex manufacturing issues on the production floor
  • Experience creating clear, compliant manufacturing documentation
  • Strong collaboration and communication skills across R&D, Quality, and Operations


Preferred:


  • Experience performing tolerance stack-up analysis and design for reliability
  • Familiarity with fixture design for bonding, adhesive curing, laser welding, or ultrasonic welding
  • Experience with contract manufacturers and supplier audits
  • Familiarity with IPC standards, GD&T, and tolerance analysis
  • Experience with automation, vision systems, or functional test development
  • Lean manufacturing or Six Sigma experience.
