This role is the technical backbone of the manufacturing engineering department, bridging Design, Production, and Quality to establish proactive engineering rigor as Moonshot scales its in-house production of switchboards, control panels, and power distribution equipment. You'll design how products are built from start to finish and build the infrastructure to support continued growth.\nKEY RESPONSIBILITIES\nNew Product Introduction & Design for Manufacturability: Own the NPI lifecycle from concept through production release. Review every new design for manufacturability before it reaches the floor. Develop full production processes including routing, tooling, and validation.\nLayout & Equipment Planning: Design and optimize facility layouts, workstations, and production flow. Identify, justify, and implement capital equipment investments with clear ROI analysis.\nTooling & Fixture Strategy: Specify and design jigs, assembly aids, and fixtures that improve quality, reduce cycle time, and standardize production methods. Evaluate improvement ideas surfaced by the Process Engineer; own final decisions on design, vendor selection, and spend.\nTechnical Escalation & Problem Solving: Serve as the senior engineering escalation point on the production floor. Lead root cause analysis on complex technical issues and drive corrective actions to closure.\n Cross-Functional Coordination: Interface actively with Design/Drafting (manufacturability feedback, BOM reviews), Quality (process capability, defect reduction), and Production Planning (capacity, scheduling alignment).\n Cost Modeling & Capacity Planning: Build cost-per-panel models and capacity analyses. Drive system-level cost reduction initiatives using floor data from the Process Engineer.\nQUALIFICATIONS\nBachelor's degree in Manufacturing, Industrial Engineering, or equivalent.\n5-8 years in a manufacturing engineering role with significant floor presence - not simulation, lab-only, or office-only settings.\nElectrical or electromechanical manufacturing experience required: must understand wire routing, terminations, electrical components, and be able to read schematics.\nDemonstrated experience with new product introduction, design for manufacturability reviews, facility layout, and capital equipment justification.\nPractical Lean manufacturing application at a system level (value stream mapping, flow optimization).\nProficient in developing process sheets, visual documentation, and assembly line layouts.\nFamiliarity with ERP systems, AutoCAD, and advanced Excel (macros, tracking tools). Strong communication and leadership skills.\nExperience with UL standards (UL508A, UL67, UL891) is highly preferred.\nWHY MOONSHOT?\nHigh-Growth Environment: Be part of a rapidly scaling company delivering power infrastructure for AI and data center applications, with meaningful technical challenges and real ownership.\nPractical Engineering Focus: Work on real-world power distribution equipment where sound engineering judgment, compliance, and manufacturability matter.\n Collaborative Team: Join a hands-on engineering organization that values clear communication, technical details, and getting designs right.","description_format":"text","description_chars":3388,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":5,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":{"level":"bachelor","optional":false},"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Blockchain & Crypto","Real Estate","Construction"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-05T04:54:57Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":5,"band":"cold","label":"Long shot","p_open":1,"p_active":0.189,"p_room":0.28,"age_days":154,"expected_fill_days":22,"reasons":["conf:1","stale_co","win:tail","crowd:"],"computed_at":"2026-10-10T05:45:15Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/moonshot-manufacturing-engineer","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/moonshot-manufacturing-engineer.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-11T02:12:23Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":3376,"day_limit":5000,"remaining_today":1624,"minute_limit":60,"resets_at":"2026-10-12T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":2322842},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=2322842"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fmoonshot-manufacturing-engineer"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fmoonshot-manufacturing-engineer"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fmoonshot-manufacturing-engineer"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/moonshot-manufacturing-engineer\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fmoonshot-manufacturing-engineer"}]}
