SeniorManufacturingEngineer

ABOUT US Foundry Robotics is building an AI-native robotics manufacturing company focused on deploying advanced assembly and production capability for leading robotics companies and national-security-critical hardware. Basically, we’re building robots that build robots. Factory OS is building software that runs factories. Our platform spans cloud backends, on-prem services, and edge devices deployed on the factory floor. The operators, supervisors, and managers who use our tools need interfaces that are fast, reliable, and intuitive—even when network conditions aren’t perfect and the environment is demanding. THE ROLE This role is for a Senior Manufacturing Engineer who specializes in equipment introduction and the end-to-end project management of capital tooling and automation. You will own the path from production requirement to running line, driving the RFQ process, selecting and benchmarking equipment across the vendor landscape, managing external line builders through design and build, and commissioning equipment on the floor through FAT, SAT, and ramp. You will hit defined OEE, throughput, and cycle time targets, and transfer clean ownership to production and maintenance after SOP. You are equally comfortable in a vendor pre-build meeting and on the shop floor signing off acceptance tests. KEY RESPONSIBILITIES - Own equipment introduction projects end-to-end, from requirements definition and RFQ through vendor selection, FAT, SAT, and ramp to SOP - Benchmark, select, and manage external line builders and tooling suppliers, holding them accountable to cost, schedule, and performance - Define and hit OEE, throughput, and cycle time targets on every project, using data to identify and close performance gaps - Provide DFM and DFA input on product, process, and tooling designs to ensure manufacturability is engineered in, not bolted on - Build business cases and ROI analyses to justify capital equipment decisions to senior leadership - Transfer ownership cleanly to
