Are you a detail-driven engineer who thrives on optimizing processes and making production more efficient from the ground up? Jered-a PAR Systems company-is seeking a Manufacturing Engineer who's ready to take ownership of the build process from kickoff through delivery. In this role, you'll transform complex engineering designs into actionable shop floor instructions, refine tooling and materials requirements, and lead process improvements across the plant. You'll collaborate with design, planning, purchasing, and production teams to deliver high-performance manufacturing solutions that meet quality, budget, and schedule goals.

Success Criteria:

Your impact will be measured by how effectively you drive production efficiency, standardize work methods, and support lean initiatives. You'll "own" the product build lifecycle, ensuring optimal weld sequences, ergonomic workflows, cost-effective material usage, and accurate documentation from start to finish. To succeed in this role, you'll need a deep understanding of fabrication and assembly methods, mechanical troubleshooting skills, and the ability to resolve production issues on the floor. Familiarity with ISO standards, MIL-SPEC compliance, and experience leading continuous improvement efforts will set you apart.
