  • Assist in resolving execution roadblocks by coordinating across functional teams
  • Support continuous improvement of work order processes and documentation
  • Prepare and communicate regular status updates to Program Managers and stakeholders
  • Maintain organized project documentation, schedules, and build records



    • What You Will Need

  • College Degree in Technical Background Preferred.
  • 2+ years of experience in manufacturing, operations, project coordination, or production support
  • Working knowledge of factory environments, assembly processes, or production workflows
  • Experience supporting project execution or work orders in a fast‑paced environment

  • Effective communicator with the ability to work across engineering, supply chain, and production teams
  • Comfortable working on the production floor as needed
  • Proficiency with Microsoft Office (Excel, Outlook, Teams); experience with ERP/MRP systems preferred


    • What Sets you apart

  • Bachelor’s Degree in Electrical, Mechanical or Manufacturing Engineering
  • 3-5 years of relevant experience.
  • Experience supporting prototype builds, NPI, or pre‑production projects
  • Familiarity with manufacturing documentation such as BOMs, routings, and work instructions
  • Prior experience supporting Program Managers or Project Managers
  • Exposure to lean manufacturing or continuous improvement practices

    • What We Offer:

  • Competitive salary and benefits package.
  • Opportunities for professional growth and development.
