Your Role
This role is not a traditional Process Engineer, Quality Assurance one: you reside at the intersection of process engineering, manufacturing quality, and continuous improvement. You are active on the floor, in the data, and in the details of how materials are actually made.
You will design, validate, control, and continuously improve manufacturing processes so that quality is not inspected at the end but built in by default. You will partner closely with Engineering and Manufacturing to scale new processes, resolve yield and reliability issues, and ensure compliance with ISO 9001 and customer requirements.
You will have real authority and accountability: if something breaks, drifts, or fails a reliability test, we will rely on you to figure out why and fix it. If you like solving real problems, building systems that last, and having your fingerprints on how things are madethis role has teeth.
- Own critical manufacturing processes from a quality and capability standpoint (process windows, control plans, PFMEAs).
- Define and maintain process parameters, acceptance criteria, and in-process controls.
- Establish SPC methodologies, control charts, and reaction plans for key variables.
- Lead root-cause analysis for process excursions, yield loss, and nonconformances.
- Develop and maintain quality documentation including control plans, work instructions, inspection plans, and validation reports.
- Support internal and external audits (ISO 9001, customer audits) with technical depth and confidence.
- Drive corrective and preventive actions (CAPA) through closure, ensuring fixes are real and sustained.
- Ensure traceability, data integrity, and disciplined change control across manufacturing processes.
- Partner with R&D and NPI teams to transition processes from development to production.
- Define process qualification plans (IQ/OQ/PQ or equivalent) for new equipment and processes.
- Identify manufacturability and reliability risks early and push for design or process changes upstream.
- Support customer qualification builds and reliability testing (e.g., accelerated life, environmental stress).
- Lead yield improvement, scrap reduction, and cycle-time reduction initiatives.
- Use datanot anecdotesto prioritize and drive improvements.
- Help evolve manufacturing maturity as the company scales (from early production to high-volume readiness).
- Mentor junior engineers and technicians on process discipline and quality fundamentals.
- Bachelors degree in Engineering (Materials, Mechanical, Chemical, Manufacturing, or similar).
- 7+ years of experience in process engineering and/or quality engineering in a manufacturing environment.
- Hands-on experience with SPC, process capability analysis, and root-cause problem solving.
- Strong understanding of ISO 9001 quality systems and practical implementation.
- Experience supporting audits and interacting directly with customers on quality topics.
- Comfortable working in fast-moving, ambiguous environments where processes are still evolving.
- Advanced materials, composites, semiconductors, or precision manufacturing background.
- Experience scaling processes from pilot to production.
- Familiarity with reliability testing, accelerated life testing, or environmental stress testing.
- Experience implementing or administering SPC or manufacturing data systems.
- Lean / Six Sigma training (Green Belt or Black Belt a plus, not a requirement).
- Health, Vision & Dental Boston Materials pays 75% of Health, Vision and Dental Care coverage for employee and dependents
- 4 weeks of supplemental Paid Parental and Family Leave
- Unlimited Paid Time Off
- Holidays: 14 days/year
