Manufacturing Engineer - (CNC)

Opportunity To Unlock Your Creativity

Opportunity To Grow Your Career

Your role as a Manufacturing Engineer will be to support and drive improvement to our critical manufacturing functions. We have two sets of customers our builders, who order parts through us, and our manufacturing partners, who manufacture and assemble these parts and you ll be consistently working at the interface between the two. At Fictiv, we believe in creating the world s premier platform for hardware manufacturing, and you ll be playing a critical role in making that happen.

In your role as the Manufacturing Engineer, you will be reviewing and analyzing the manufacturability and costs associated with CNC machining submitted by our builders. In this role, you ll also be using your Mechanical Engineering background and knowledge of manufacturing processes in order to determine what design changes may need to be made to our builders design specifications in order to meet their needs. By developing highly competitive proposals and quotations that meet the requirements called out by our customers, you will be assisting in bringing products to market faster in a wide range of industries (and helping to accelerate Fictiv s growth)
