Engineering Manager, Manufacturing & Projects
About the Role:
The Engineering Manager, Manufacturing & Projects role is designed for a high-performing Lead Engineer ready to expand beyond technical execution into owning projects, people, and manufacturing outcomes.
You’ll lead engineering for a portfolio of gas drying, humidification, and sample conditioning products used across medical, environmental, and industrial applications. The work involves translating complex, high-performance designs into scalable, reliable, and compliant manufacturing systems. You won’t just support production—you’ll shape how products are built, improved, and scaled.
What You’ll Own:
- End-to-end manufacturing engineering across a diverse gas handling product portfolio
- Project leadership from concept through production implementation
- Design transfer and process scale-up for new products
- Automation and cost reduction initiatives
- A team of engineers, technicians, and machine shop personnel
- Manufacturing readiness across regulated and performance-critical applications
- Safety, compliance, and facility performance
Your Impact: Lead Projects & Deliver Outcomes:
- Own engineering programs from concept through implementation (scope, budget, timeline)
- Drive automation and cost reduction initiatives tied to business goals
- Lead root-cause investigations and implement sustainable solutions
- Communicate progress and influence decisions at the leadership level
Translate Complex Products into Scalable Manufacturing:
- Develop processes for membrane-based systems, tubing assemblies, and gas flow devices
- Ensure consistent performance in applications involving moisture removal, humidification, and gas purification
- Lead validation activities (IQ/OQ/PQ) across product lines
Support a High-Mix Manufacturing Environment:
- Build flexible processes for low-to-mid volume, high-mix production
- Support products used in:
- Medical (respiratory care, gas monitoring)
- Environmental (emissions monitoring systems)
- Industrial process applications
Grow Into People Leadership:
- Lead, mentor, and develop a multidisciplinary engineering team
- Transition from hands-on execution to setting direction and enabling others
- Build a culture of accountability, ownership, and continuous improvement
Drive Operational Excellence:
- Implement lean manufacturing principles to improve throughput and reduce waste
- Establish and maintain standardized work, PFMEAs, and process documentation
- Ensure equipment reliability through preventive maintenance programs
Ensure Quality & Compliance:
- Operate within FDA, ISO 13485, and ISO 9001 frameworks
- Partner with Quality on CAPAs, audits, and risk management
- Build systems that balance compliance with speed and practicality
Own the Manufacturing Environment:
- Oversee equipment for precision assembly, extrusion, and gas/fluid systems
- Lead facility improvements and expansion projects
- Serve as Safety Officer, ensuring OSHA compliance and strong safety practices
What Makes This Role Different:
- Clear step-up path: Designed for Lead Engineers moving into broader ownership
- Project-centered leadership: You’ll be measured on outcomes, not activity
- Technical depth: Work on complex gas handling and membrane-based systems
- High visibility: Direct impact on cost, quality, and delivery
- Build & scale: Opportunity to shape processes, systems, and team structure
What You Bring:
- Bachelor’s degree in Engineering (Mechanical, Biomedical, Chemical, or related)
- 7+ years of experience, including time as a technical or project lead
- Proven experience leading engineering projects end-to-end
- Strong problem-solving skills in complex, multi-variable systems
- Desire to grow into people and organizational leadership
Valued Experience:
- Regulated manufacturing (medical device or similar)
- Fluid systems, gas handling, filtration, or membrane technologies
- Tubing, extrusion, or flow-control systems
- Automation of assembly or testing processes
- Lean / Six Sigma methodologies
Who Thrives Here:
- Engineers ready to own projects, not just contribute to them
- Leaders who want to build teams and systems from the ground up
- Problem-solvers who move easily between hands-on work and strategic decisions
- Individuals motivated by real-world product impact in critical applications
Success Looks Like:
- Projects delivered on time, on budget, and with measurable impact
- Scalable, stable manufacturing processes across product lines
- Improved yield, efficiency, and product consistency
- Strong alignment between engineering, quality, and operations
- A capable, accountable, and growing engineering team
