Job Summary

We are seeking an experienced Process Engineering Technician to support our electronic manufacturing operations. This role is responsible for developing detailed, accurate, and user-friendly process documentation for mechanical build operations, while also serving as a key support resource to Manufacturing Engineers and production teams.

The ideal candidate brings hands-on experience in electronic manufacturing environments, understands production workflows, and is highly skilled in translating engineering intent into clear work instructions using an MES system—specifically Aegis Factory Logix

Duties and Responsibilities

  • Create and maintain detailed process instructions for mechanical assembly and build processes.
  • Develop structured work instructions within the Factory Logix MES system, ensuring clarity, accuracy, and usability for operators.
  • Implement and manage Engineering Change Orders (ECOs), ensuring all updates are accurately reflected in process documentation and production systems.
  • Maintain process revision control, including document versioning, change tracking, and ensure production is always using the latest released instructions.
  • Collaborate closely with Manufacturing Engineers to interpret design intent and translate it into actionable production processes.
  • Support new product introductions (NPIs), line startups, and continuous production builds.
  • Work directly with production operators on the floor to ensure instructions are understood and followed correctly.
  • Assist in troubleshooting build issues and refining documentation based on real-time feedback.
  • Develop and maintain process flows, ensuring logical and efficient manufacturing sequences.
  • Interpret and work with Bills of Materials (BOMs) and engineering documentation.
  • Ensure process documentation aligns with quality standards and manufacturing best practices.
  • Assist with continuous improvement initiatives by identifying gaps or inefficiencies in existing processes.

Qualifications

Basic Qualifications

  • 5–10 years of experience in electronic manufacturing or a related industry.

    • Manufacturing process flow
    • Bills of Materials (BOMs)
  • Experience working in or supporting production environments, including operator interaction.
  • Familiarity with Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES), preferably Aegis Factory Logix.
  • Ability to read and interpret engineering drawings, assembly instructions, and technical specifications.
  • Strong attention to detail with excellent organizational and documentation skills.
  • Effective communication skills, with the ability to collaborate across engineering and production teams.
  • Experience with Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, Outlook) and Adobe PDF software.
  • High school diploma or GED required.  

Preferred Qualifications (Optional)

  • Experience supporting NPI (New Product Introduction) builds.
  • Knowledge of lean manufacturing or continuous improvement methodologies.
  • Basic troubleshooting and problem-solving skills related to production processes.
