  • Quality Control : Vision inspection system programming and implementation. 

This is a diverse, hands-on role ideal for engineers who thrive in a multifaceted environment and are eager to grow their skills across disciplines. 

Responsibilities  

  • Contribute to the design and development of new products, fixtures, and tooling using SolidWorks and SolidWorks CAM. 
  • Execute functional testing, analyze results, and refine systems through iterative troubleshooting and adjustment. 
  • Deliver technical support for existing machines and operations, including process documentation and updates to work instructions. 
  • Contribute to ongoing improvement initiatives aimed at increasing efficiency, reducing downtime, and supporting lean manufacturing principles. 
  • Participate in cross-functional projects involving R&D, quality, and operations.  

Qualifications  

  • Bachelor's degree in Mechanical or Industrial Engineering. 
  • Experience with CAD Modeling (SolidWorks preferred) 
  • Familiarity with CNC equipment, mechanical systems, and manual tools (e.g., lathes, drills, mills). 
  • Understanding of technical drawings and GD&T. 
  • Detail-oriented with a strong problem-solving mindset. 
  • Excellent communication and project coordination skills. 
  • Self-directed, reliable, and able to manage multiple priorities. 
  • A team player with a continuous improvement focus and respect for craftsmanship and quality. 

Benefits  

  • Health Insurance, including dental and vision 
  • Nine paid holidays, paid vacation, and paid sick leave 
  • Eligible to participate in a 401(k)-retirement plan with company matching
