Axon Advanced Manufacturing Engineer II at Axon responsible for developing and improving manufacturing processes and equipment. Collaborate with cross-functional teams to ensure manufacturability and production readiness.
Responsibilities
Axon’s NPI teams develop products that move from initial design to reliable, scalable production. As an Advanced Manufacturing Engineer II, you will develop and improve manufacturing processes, equipment, and factory layouts. You will partner with Design Engineering, NPI, Operations, Quality, Supply Chain, and manufacturing partners to identify risks early, resolve technical issues, and prepare products and processes for production.
This role is ideal for an engineer who thrives on collaborative problem-solving and can independently manage defined manufacturing engineering projects and workstreams while engaging senior engineers when broader technical leadership is needed.
Location: Onsite
Reports to: Director of Manufacturing Engineering
Direct Reports: None
Design and develop manufacturing processes, equipment, fixtures, and line layouts that meet cost, ergonomic, quality, and cycle time requirements.
Partner with Design Engineering and NPI teams to identify and address manufacturability, assembly, test, quality, and cost risks throughout product development.
Support prototype and validation builds, including build preparation, equipment and process readiness, issue resolution, and documentation of results.
Own assigned manufacturing engineering projects and workstreams, coordinating deliverables and communicating progress, risks, and recommendations to stakeholders.
Apply structured problem-solving and root cause analysis to equipment and process issues; implement and verify corrective actions.
Lead process characterization and optimization using DOE, SPC, and other data-driven methodologies.
Analyze production and test data to identify trends, variation, yield issues, and improvement opportunities.
