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
