By integrating a vast catalog of components with a world-class digital manufacturing platform, MISUMI Americas empowers engineers and procurement teams to accelerate innovation across the entire product lifecycle. With operations in the San Francisco Bay Area and Chicago, the company serves as a vital partner for the most innovative companies in the Americas.\nThe Senior Manufacturing Engineer role is a senior-level, hands-on manufacturing engineering position responsible for defining how custom parts are built and priced-reviewing manufacturability, generating competitive quotes, and providing design feedback that brings products to market faster. The role serves as a technical authority who helps raise the bar for costing and DFM (Design for Manufacturability) quality across regions.\nMISUMI Americas serves three sets of customers-builders who order parts through us, manufacturing partners who make and assemble those parts, and our world-class sales professionals who rely on fast, accurate quoting and DFM support to win and serve accounts. This role sits at the interface of all three. As a senior member of the team, this person also coaches and mentors other engineers and partners closely with the Global Capability Center (GCC) Costing and DFM team, with room to grow their scope and influence over time.\nManufacturing Engineering & Quoting\nRelease package review - Analyze models, drawings, parts lists, and other data to determine scope of work, manufacturing feasibility, requirements, and minimum lead time.\nQuoting - Combine engineering analysis with platform recommendations to generate quotes for builders or collaborate with external suppliers to determine the parameters needed to quote.\nCost calculator generation - Use fabrication expertise and an understanding of process cost drivers to build cost calculators that bring quoting in-house for new service offerings.\nDFx feedback - Provide design-for-manufacturability and design-for-assembly feedback to builders, recommending changes that improve manufacturability, reduce part cost, or ease assembly.\nAutomation feedback - Feed insights back to the quoting software team to improve the accuracy of automated quoting across manufacturing services.\nDrawing generation - Produce high-quality 2D drawings per ANSI/ASME Y14.5 standards.\nMentorship & Cross-Functional Collaboration\nCoaching & mentorship - Coach and mentor engineers on the US and GCC Costing and DFM teams, sharing fabrication and costing expertise to help them grow.\nBest practices & peer review - Help establish and document costing and DFM best practices, review work, and provide feedback that improves technical accuracy and consistency across regions.\nCross-functional leadership - Lead through influence across engineering, sourcing, sales, quality, and software, aligning stakeholders on costing and DFM decisions without relying on direct authority.\nDotted-line coordination - Guide and coordinate the technical work of engineers who do not report to this role (including GCC and cross-regional partners) and keep shared initiatives on track.\nAll employees are expected to maintain and contribute to the QMS.\n4-year Mechanical Engineering degree or equivalent technical training.\n5-10 years of relevant experience in manufacturing engineering, costing/DFM, or related custom mechanical hardware work.\nHands-on experience across multiple custom mechanical manufacturing processes (sheet metal, urethane casting, injection molding, etc.); CNC machining and 3D printing experience is a must.\nStrong understanding of GD&T and conventional (coordinate) tolerancing, and deep knowledge of the manufacturability and limitations of common metals and plastics.\nExperience mentoring or coaching other engineers and acting as a technical resource; collaborating with offshore/GCC teams is a plus.\nProven ability to lead through influence and coordinate cross-functional or dotted-line teams without direct reporting authority.\nThrives with a high degree of autonomy-owns their workload end to end, exercises sound technical judgment independently, and drives decisions to closure in a remote environment with minimal oversight.\nExcellent written and verbal communication in English; comfortable working across multicultural, cross-functional teams.\nMeticulous and detail-oriented, with a documentation mindset. Experience with APQP/PPAP, IQ/OQ/PQ, EV/DV/PV, or NPI processes and/or PMP certification is a plus.\nExperience in AS9100, ISO 13485, or other highly regulated industries is highly recommended.\nThis position will work primarily remotely, computer-based work involving prolonged periods at a workstation reviewing CAD models and 2D drawings. Occasional visits to manufacturing partner facilities may involve a shop-floor environment (noise, moving equipment) and the ability to move about the facility. Reasonable accommodations may be made to enable individuals with disabilities to perform the essential functions.\nSalary range: \n$108,000 - $129,000 base salary per year, depending on experience.\nBenefits include, but are not limited to:\nComprehensive medical and dental coverage\n 401(k) plan\n Generous PTO and leave programs\nWe’re actively seeking teammates who:\nBring diverse perspectives and experience to our culture and company. \nExcel at being part of a strong, empathetic team.\nThrive in an environment emphasizing respect, honesty, collaboration, and growth.\nHave an ‘always learning’ mindset that celebrates learning, not just wins. \nHelp us continue to build a world-class organization that values the contributions of all of our teammates\nWe encourage applications from members of underrepresented groups, including but not limited to women, members of the LGBTQ community, people of color, people with disabilities, and veterans.","description_format":"text","description_chars":5948,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":5,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[{"language":"English","level":"Upper-Intermediate
