Job Description

✈️ Now Hiring: Manufacturing Engineer | Aerospace Manufacturing

Sky Limit Systems is partnering with a growing aerospace manufacturer that’s investing in smarter processes, better tools, and stronger teams — and they’re looking for a hands-on Manufacturing Engineer to help drive that change.

This is a full-time, onsite role for a mechanically inclined problem-solver who thrives on the production floor. You’ll design tooling and fixtures, lead continuous improvement projects, and play a key role in building a leaner, more efficient operation. It’s ideal for someone who’s ready to grow — both technically and as a future leader.

What You’ll Do:

  • Design, develop, and implement tooling, fixtures, and process improvements to enhance production efficiency and quality
  • Collaborate with production, quality, and engineering teams to troubleshoot issues and optimize manufacturing flow
  • Lead and manage continuous improvement initiatives focused on waste reduction, throughput, and cost savings
  • Support root cause analysis and corrective actions for production challenges
  • Document standard work procedures and support lean transformation efforts across the floor
  • Oversee small to mid-scale improvement projects from concept through implementation
  • Serve as a technical mentor and potential future leader within the manufacturing team

What We’re Looking For:

  • Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical, Industrial, or Manufacturing Engineering (or related field)
  • 5+ years of experience in aerospace or precision manufacturing
  • Strong mechanical aptitude with hands-on experience building or designing tooling and fixtures
  • Working knowledge of Lean, Six Sigma, or Continuous Improvement methodologies
  • Excellent communication, organization, and leadership potential
  • Ability to thrive in a non-lean environment and drive measurable improvements
  • Someone eager to learn every part of the operation and grow into a supervisory or lead role

Why This Opportunity:

This role is for an engineer who doesn’t just want to maintain — but to build, improve, and lead. You’ll gain exposure to multiple product lines, learn how every part of the business operates, and play a key role in shaping a more efficient production environment. If you’re ready to roll up your sleeves, lead projects, and grow into leadership, Sky Limit Systems wants to meet you.
