About the Role
You'll be joining HUT's Production Engineering team, working directly under the Director of Production Engineering on the floor where our aviation products come to life. This is a hands-on manufacturing engineering role — you'll be embedded in daily operations, serving as the technical resource the production team turns to when things need solving. HUT builds everything in-house, so you'll have real visibility into how products go from design to assembly to delivery, and your work will have a direct impact on the quality of what ships to our aviation customers.
What You'll Do
- Be the go-to engineering resource on the production floor, jumping in to resolve manufacturing issues as they arise
- Dig into process data to identify inefficiencies and drive improvements in quality, throughput, and waste reduction
- Lead root cause investigations on production failures and non-conformances, and own the corrective actions through to resolution
- Write and maintain clear, accurate standard work instructions and process documentation
- Partner with quality, design, and supply chain teams to make sure new products are built for manufacturability from the start
- Design and develop tooling, fixtures, and test equipment that make assembly faster, safer, and more repeatable
- Work hands-on with machinists, technicians, and vendors to bring tooling solutions from concept to the floor
Qualifications
- Bachelor's or Master's degree in Mechanical Engineering
- 1–3 years of experience in a manufacturing or assembly environment
- Solid grasp of GD&T and the ability to read and interpret engineering drawings
- Proficiency in CAD software (SolidWorks, AutoCAD, or similar)
- A natural problem-solver — you don't just identify issues, you stay with them until they're fixed
- Comfortable working cross-functionally and communicating clearly with production, engineering, and quality teams
- Experience in aerospace, automotive, or medical devices is a plus, as is familiarity with ERP/MRP, PLM systems, or FAA/Mil Spec requirements
