The Manufacturing Engineer is an early to mid-level individual contributor that supports the development and validation of manufacturing processes and equipment for manual, semi-automated, and fully automated production of EVOLOH’s advanced electrolyzer stack products.

Essential Responsibilities:

• Provide input into the development of effective manufacturing processes, tooling, and equipment for electrolyzer cell component fabrication and stack assembly for low, medium and high-volume production environments.
• Analyze and document operator-machine interaction with detailed time and motion studies to identify and improve process bottlenecks.
• Create and maintain process documentation (Process Flow Diagrams, Value Stream Maps, Operator Instructions, PFMEAs, BOMs and ECNs.)
• Observe and support resolution of manufacturing process issues on the production floor.
• Design fixturing and tooling for the development and validation of production concepts.
• Support the design, build, installation, and validation of component processing equipment, product assembly fixtures, and associated tooling.
• Support equipment vendor selection activities by producing effective process documentation.
