Manufacturing Engineer

Eaton's Aerospace Group is currently seeking a Manufacturing Engineer to join our team. This position is based in our Los Angeles, CA facility.

The LA facility has approximately 250 employees (and growing) and is a leader in the design, development, manufacture and delivery of Aerospace hydraulic components, systems and services to the global aftermarket and OEM markets.

Position Overview:

This Manufacturing Engineer serves as the technical support for application development and sustaining production engineering of components and/or systems with emphasis on hydro-mechanical and electro-mechanical products. This role assists manufacturing, manufacturing engineers, focus factory personnel, project lead engineers, and/or operations management in determination of work scope, tasks, and budgets. The Manufacturing Engineer provides methods of cost reduction for production and production-related activities.

Making what matters work at Eaton takes the passion of every employee around the world. We create an environment where creativity, invention and discovery become reality, each and every day. It’s where bold, bright professionals like you can reach your full potential—and where you can help us reach ours.

In this function you will:

• Apply technical skills for performance and production problem resolution of hydraulic, pneumatic and electro-mechanical products and related components with relatively little guidance. Focus areas include cost reduction, standardization of similar products and robustness and quality improvement of design.
• Place an emphasis on both internal and external customer satisfaction.
• Comply with ISO requirements.
• Serve as a technical contact with internal and external customers, manufacturing, manufacturing engineering, quality assurance, product support, material, and suppliers ensuring their satisfaction.
• Implement performance, cost, quality and consistency improvements in products and process during and after their design phase.
• Analyze data from OEM returned products and implement improvements to increase the processing yield and quality of the components, minimizing the number of returned units.
• Analyze data from mechanical components to implement improvements to increase the producibility of the components, minimizing the assembly and test cycle times.
• Be able to work in a team environment and demonstrate support of Eaton lean and continuous improvement principles, teamwork, cooperation, respect, and integrity.
• Create new and revise existing manufacturing process plans to accomplish manufacturing with the least amount of waste and best quality possible.
• Develop technical expertise on hydraulic and pneumatic products with emphasis on producibility and first-time pass.

When we embrace the different ideas, perspectives and backgrounds that make each of us unique, we — as individuals and as a company — are stronger.
