Join us at the forefront of electrified industrial energy. We’re looking for a Manufacturing Engineering Manager to scale production of next-generation commercial and industrial thermal systems, including unfired boilers and steam-generating heat pumps.

In this role, you’ll drive manufacturability, cost, quality, and delivery performance for complex equipment—leading initiatives across DFMA, production ramp, industrial engineering, and supplier integration. You’ll be a key leader shaping how cutting-edge thermal systems move from design to high-volume production.

What You’ll Do

Lead & Scale Manufacturing

• Build and lead a high-performing manufacturing engineering team
• Define and execute manufacturing strategies aligned to growth and electrification
• Partner cross-functionally with R&D, Product, Supply Chain, and Operations

Drive Product Industrialization (DFMA)

• Lead DFMA for boilers, steam systems, and heat pumps
• Optimize designs for fabrication, assembly, and serviceability
• Oversee pilot builds, validation, and manufacturing readiness

Enable Production Ramp

• Design efficient layouts and production lines for large-scale equipment
• Implement lean principles (flow, line balancing, cycle time reduction)
• Develop capacity models, labor standards, and capital plans
• Stand up and optimize test systems (pressure, thermal, performance)

Own Supplier Technical Strategy

• Act as the engineering lead for critical suppliers (heat exchangers, coils, pressure vessels, compressors)
• Drive supplier quality and manufacturability (PPAP/APQP, audits, DFMA alignment)
• Resolve technical challenges for build-to-print components

Build World-Class Processes

• Standardize processes (welding, brazing, leak testing, refrigerant handling)
• Lead Lean / Six Sigma improvements across yield, throughput, and cost
• Establish robust documentation, work instructions, and training systems

Ensure Quality, Compliance & Safety

• Maintain compliance with ASME, UL/ETL/CSA, and HVAC standards
• Partner with Quality on root cause and corrective actions
• Champion safe practices for high-pressure, high-temperature, and refrigerant systems

What You Bring

Required

• Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical, Manufacturing, or related engineering field
• 10+ years in manufacturing engineering (thermal systems, HVAC, boilers, or industrial equipment)
• 3–5+ years leading engineering teams

Technical Strengths

• Deep DFMA experience for thermal/fluid systems
• Expertise in fabrication processes (welding, brazing, machining, forming)
• Experience scaling from pilot to full production
• Strong knowledge of heat transfer, pressure systems, and electro-mechanical assembly

Nice to Have

• ASME pressure vessel manufacturing experience
• Background in boilers, steam systems, or industrial heat pumps
• Six Sigma certification (Green/Black Belt)
• ERP/MRP and manufacturing analytics familiarity

Who You Are

• Hands-on leader with strong technical judgment
• Execution-focused and results-driven
• Collaborative across functions and suppliers
• Skilled at scaling operations in fast-growing environments
• Committed to quality, reliability, and ownership

Why Join Us

• Shape the future of electrified thermal systems
• Work on critical infrastructure driving industrial decarbonization
• Lead manufacturing innovation in a rapidly growing space
• Strong growth opportunity
