Manufacturing Process Engineer

Manufacturing · San Francisco Bay Area · On-site · Full-time · $135k - $185k + equity

Own the manufacturing processes behind the Ditto glove as it scales from prototype builds to production volume. Focus areas include yield, cycle time, repeatability, and tooling.

What you'll do

  • Improve cycle time and first-pass yield across glove builds.
  • Implement statistical process control for sealing, sensor bonding, and assembly tolerances.
  • Design and build production tooling and fixtures that enforce repeatability across operators.
  • Author SOPs, work instructions, and control plans that supervisors can train against.
  • Own process definition through NPI: prototype builds, validation units, and production ramp.
  • Serve as the technical liaison between design engineering, assembly, and quality.

What we're looking for

  • BS in Mechanical, Manufacturing, or Aerospace Engineering, or equivalent experience.
  • 5+ years in manufacturing engineering for precision mechanical or electromechanical assemblies.
  • Hands-on production support: yield improvement, ramp, and issue resolution on the floor.
  • Experience with PFMEA, control plans, and process validation.
  • Fixture design that balances repeatability with operator ergonomics.

Nice to have

  • Experience with adhesive bonding, surface treatment, or sealing processes.
  • Background in safety-critical or load-bearing assemblies.
  • Lean or Six Sigma certification.
