Job Description:

• Level 1 - Assist in supporting production and process improvements for aerospace-grade pressure switches and transducers. Gain hands-on experience with precision assembly, calibration, and inspection processes under the guidance of senior engineers.
• Level 2 - Own and optimize manufacturing processes for aerospace pressure switches and transducers. Improve yields, throughput, and quality through data-driven analysis and process refinement. Support new designs through development to production.
• Senior - Lead manufacturing strategy and process improvement initiatives for aerospace-qualified pressure switches and transducers. Serve as technical authority for assembly, calibration, and test processes. Drive productivity, quality, and regulatory compliance.

Key Responsibilities:

Level 1

• Support day-to-day manufacturing of pressure sensors, switches, and assemblies.
• Assist with documentation of assembly procedures, calibration steps, and inspection protocols.
• Help troubleshoot basic production issues, focusing on wiring, sensor alignment, and leak testing.
• Collect and analyze simple manufacturing data (e.g., yields, rework rates).
• Assist with implementation of lean improvements in work cells.
• Learn industry standards (AS9100, IPC-A-610, etc.) and support compliance.
• Maintain accurate documentation of processes, manufacturing procedures, material records, design concepts, tool/fixture drawings and shop orders in coordination with Engineering, Quality Assurance and R & D functions

Level 2

• Develop and optimize assembly and calibration processes for electro-mechanical pressure sensors.
• Analyze failure data and lead root cause investigations (e.g., electrical drift, seal leaks, calibration drift).
• Implement process controls (PFMEAs, control plans, work instructions).
• Support NPIs and design-for-manufacturability (DFM) efforts for custom transducer designs.
• Collaborate with quality engineering on nonconformance investigations and corrective actions.
• Evaluate tooling and test fixture needs and manage change control documentation.
