About the role
As Lead Manufacturing Engineer, Tooling Design, you'll be Mach's go-to expert on two things: how we design tooling, and how parts are designed so automation can handle, locate and assemble them. You'll push the field forward through research and development (R&D) on new materials, hardware and processes. You'll design experiments, build test articles, partner with suppliers and move what works into production. This is a hands-on technical leadership role with direct reports.
