Job Overview

TE's Aerospace Defense & Marine Division is seeking a highly motivated Senior Manufacturing & Process Development Engineer to support process development and manufacturing readiness for new product introductions. In this role, you will own manufacturing engineering deliverables for assigned NPI projects, provide DFM/DFA input, develop robust manufacturing processes and tooling, support qualification and product launch activities, and help standardize manufacturing practices across multiple sites.

This position offers broad exposure to cross-functional NPI programs and opportunities to grow as a technical leader in manufacturing process development. The role is based in Hermosillo, Sonora, with occasional travel across North America to support manufacturing deployments. What your background should look like Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, or a related technical field. Minimum 5 years of experience in manufacturing engineering, process development, or New Product Introduction (NPI).

Experience designing, developing, and deploying manufacturing equipment, machinery, and processes in production environments. Strong hands-on problem-solving skills with the ability to independently lead technical workstreams.

Strong project prioritization and time management skills.

Excellent verbal and written communication skills in English. Proficiency with 3D CAD software and Microsoft Office applications.

Responsibilities

Execute Manufacturing Engineering deliverables aligned with the LEANPD process. Develop and qualify assembly tooling and equipment while ensuring compliance with safety and ergonomic standards. Provide Design for Manufacturing (DFM) and Design for Assembly (DFA) support during product development. Lead PFMEA activities and implement mitigation plans for high-risk processes. Develop value stream maps and optimize process flow through Lean principles.

Plan and execute sample builds to support process development and manufacturability assessments. Create process specifications, manufacturing documentation, and operator work instructions. Lead or support the implementation of manufacturing technologies, equipment, and automation solutions for new product introductions. Drive improvements in cost, quality, yield, and manufacturability through Lean Manufacturing methodologies.

Collaborate with cross-functional teams to ensure manufacturing readiness for successful product launches. What Success Looks Like Manufacturing processes are fully prepared to support product launches with validated tooling, documentation, capacity planning, and qualification evidence. Product designs incorporate manufacturability considerations early in the development process. Manufacturing teams receive the technical support, training guidance, and documentation required for successful execution.
