Project Engineer (Manufacturing)

The Project Engineer (Manufacturing) will oversee factory operations and report directly to the NPI (New Product Introduction) Manager. The role involves leading a small team of interns and collaborating with cross-functional teams to drive manufacturing excellence, process improvements, and support new product introductions. Key responsibilities include designing test circuits to meet product assembly and testing requirements, developing and refining manufacturing methods to reduce waste and increase output, and planning, managing, and executing projects to ensure timely delivery. The engineer will produce documentation aligned with BURN's product development stage gate process, such as forecast figures, product build studies, TAKT time calculations, line balancing, line design, CAPEX management, sourcing and tracking of assembly line items, product packaging, and process flow definition. Additionally, the role requires working with the Engineering Design team to develop jigs, fixtures, QC gauges, and assembly/process work instructions, and partnering with production and quality departments to identify and implement continuous improvements, including line balancing and headcount reduction. The engineer may also be assigned other duties by management as needed.

Diploma or Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering (essential); practical knowledge of electronic components (resistors, capacitors, inductors, microcontrollers); experience in manufacturing engineering or related field (advantageous); strong project management and documentation skills; ability to collaborate across departments and lead small teams.
