About the Job

Requirements

  • A bachelor's degree in Manufacturing Engineering, Industrial Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Systems Engineering, Operations, Information Systems, or a related technical discipline.
  • At least 5 years of experience in Manufacturing Engineering, Manufacturing Systems, New Product Introduction, Production Engineering, or a related field.
  • Experience creating and maintaining travelers, routers, manufacturing work instructions, process flows, and Methods of Manufacture.
  • Hands-on experience with Enterprise Resource Planning, Manufacturing Execution Systems, Product Lifecycle Management, Quality Management Systems, or related manufacturing enterprise systems.
  • Strong understanding of bills of materials, routings, item masters, inventory transactions, revision control, and manufacturing traceability principles.
  • Experience supporting new product introduction, manufacturing transfers, or scale-up programs.
  • Ability to independently manage projects and solve difficult cross-functional manufacturing challenges.

Responsibilities

  • Develop and maintain manufacturing execution documentation, including Methods of Manufacture, travelers, routers, and work instructions, to support new product introduction, product changes, transfers, and scale-up.
  • Translate engineering drawings, specifications, bills of materials, and customer requirements into executable shop-floor documentation with defined operations, inspection points, acceptance criteria, and traceability.
  • Support pilot builds, first-article and validation builds, and launch-readiness reviews; identify and close documentation or routing gaps that pose execution, traceability, or quality risks.
  • Coordinate part-number, bill-of-materials, and routing creation and maintenance, ensuring master data is complete and accurate across Epicor, Manufacturing Execution Systems, and related systems before production release.
  • Partner with Engineering, Quality, Supply Chain, Planning, and IT to define and enforce master-data quality, naming-convention, and revision-control standards, and support related change-control activities.
  • Define manufacturing-system requirements and data-capture needs for production, inspection, traceability, nonconformance, and Device History Record/Device Lot History Record data so system configurations support intended processes.
  • Support system testing, user acceptance testing, validation, training, and integration across Epicor, Manufacturing Execution Systems, Quality Management Systems, and Product Lifecycle Management; identify gaps or workarounds to drive improvement.
  • Serve as the New Product Introduction/business-unit cross-functional interface, drive alignment on documentation and system readiness, support root-cause investigations, and standardize launch-readiness processes.

Desired Qualifications

  • Experience with Epicor Enterprise Resource Planning and Manufacturing Execution Systems platforms.
  • Experience supporting regulated manufacturing environments such as medical device, aerospace, defense, automotive, or pharmaceutical industries.
  • Familiarity with FDA Quality System Regulation, ISO 13485, AS9100, IATF 16949, or similar quality systems.
  • Experience supporting digital manufacturing, Industry 4.0, or manufacturing data analytics initiatives.
  • Lean Manufacturing, Six Sigma, Advanced Product Quality Planning, or project management experience.
