Manufacturing Engineer – Hands-On Operations Focus

Position Overview

We are looking for a mechanically inclined Manufacturing Engineer who thrives on the production floor and isn’t afraid to roll up their sleeves. This is not a desk-only engineering role. The right person will be equally comfortable analyzing data and physically working alongside maintenance and production teams to solve equipment, tooling, and process challenges in real time.

This role plays a key part in driving capital projects, strengthening plastics processing performance, improving automation reliability, and enhancing overall plant efficiency. Success in this position requires practical mechanical ability, strong troubleshooting skills, and a proactive, get-it-done mindset.

What You’ll Be Responsible For

• Lead capital equipment and infrastructure projects from concept through implementation.
• Spend significant time on the production floor supporting molding and automation systems.
• Diagnose and resolve mechanical, tooling, and automation issues hands-on.
• Work directly with maintenance and operations teams to improve equipment uptime and reliability.
• Identify root causes of process failures and implement permanent corrective actions.
• Drive safety, productivity, and cost-improvement initiatives.
• Coordinate timelines, milestones, and cross-functional communication for engineering projects.
• Support tooling improvements, machine modifications, and equipment upgrades as needed.

What We’re Looking For

• Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Manufacturing Technology, Packaging, or a related technical field.
• Minimum 4 years of engineering experience within a manufacturing environment, preferably plastics processing.
• Demonstrated experience managing capital or process improvement projects.
• Strong mechanical background — capable of physically troubleshooting equipment and working directly on machinery when needed.
• Ability to read prints, understand mechanical systems, and collaborate closely with maintenance.
• Comfortable working in a fast-paced production setting rather than a purely office-based environment.

Additional Experience That’s a Plus

• Experience in injection molding operations.
• Lean Manufacturing, Six Sigma (Green/Black Belt), or PMP certification.
• Familiarity with CAD tools such as SolidWorks or AutoCAD.
• Background in automation systems troubleshooting.

Why Join Us

We are a stable, growth-oriented manufacturer with decades of industry experience and a strong commitment to operational excellence. Our culture values collaboration, accountability, and continuous improvement — and we support the people who drive our success.

We offer a competitive benefits package including:

• Medical, dental, and vision coverage
• 401(k) with company match
• Paid time off and holidays
• Employee wellness programs
