Manufacturing Engineer

Location: Opa Locka, FL

Job ID: #72112

Pay Range: $40-48.50

In this ONSITE Manufacturing Engineer role, you will serve as a key execution-focused engineering resource supporting a landing gear Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul (MRO) facility. The primary emphasis of this position is the execution of large capital expenditure (CAPEX) projects that enhance manufacturing capability, capacity, safety, and productivity. You will work closely with operations, quality, facilities, and supply chain teams to deliver equipment installations, process improvements, and infrastructure upgrades that are safe, compliant, and production-ready. This role also supports repair and overhaul engineering responsibilities that are inherently tied to manufacturing engineering, including development of master manufacturing plans, onboarding of new programs, and direct shop-floor support within a regulated aerospace environment.

What you will do:

• Lead and execute large CAPEX projects within a landing gear MRO environment, including equipment selection, layout development, installation, commissioning, and production handover
• Translate business and operational requirements into executable manufacturing solutions that improve safety, quality, cost, delivery, and capacity
• Partner with operations, facilities, EH&S, quality, and supply chain to ensure successful project execution and compliance with regulatory and internal requirements
• Develop, author, and maintain master manufacturing plans (master routers), work instructions, and Bills of Material that define standardized, repeatable repair and overhaul execution
• Support onboarding of new programs into the facility, including creation of master production plans and preparation for introduction into the shop
• Develop supplemental documentation required to support shop-floor execution, including procedures, job aids, and supporting technical documentation
• Identify, specify, quote, and procure required tooling and equipment in support of CAPEX projects and new program introductions, including PO issuance, installation, safety reviews, and operator training
• Develop and implement manufacturing processes, tooling concepts, and workflows that support landing gear repair and overhaul operations
• Provide hands-on engineering support to the shop floor, including troubleshooting manufacturing processes, tooling, equipment, and test systems involving mechanical, electrical, hydraulic, or control related issues
• Conduct equipment acceptance, process validation, and capability assessments to ensure processes and assets are production-ready
• Review engineering specifications, repair orders, Service Bulletins, Airworthiness Directives, and related technical data to ensure compliance with approved repair and overhaul methods
• Interpret engineering drawings and facilitate creation of new drawings or correction of errors identified during repair and overhaul operations
• Review drawings and technical documentation prepared by other engineering staff
• Liaise with Quality Control, Materials, Production, and other departments to resolve shopfloor technical issues efficiently
• Ensure engineering documentation, drawings, routers, and records remain current and that engineering-related production issues and resolutions are properly documented
• Provide and support training for shop-floor personnel related to new equipment, tooling, processes, and program introductions
• Drive root cause analysis and corrective actions for manufacturing, equipment, or process issues
• Support continuous improvement initiatives focused on throughput, yield, turnaround time, safety, and operational stability
