3/31/26

At TE, you will unleash your potential working with people from diverse backgrounds and industries to create a safer, sustainable and more connected world.

TE Connectivity's Manufacturing Engineering Teams are process leaders for stamping, molding or assembly related topics, ensuring the processes are running at optimum levels for quality and output. They are experts in mold tooling, die tooling, machining, and assembly techniques, possessing extensive knowledge of the associated manufacturing processes which may include the optimization and standardization of stamping / molding / assembly or other processes within the manufacturing environment. Manufacturing Engineering Teams enable the TE business unit plants to reach TE Operating Advantage (TEOA) requirements, roll out Centers of Excellence (COE), Best Demonstrated Practices (BDP’s) and advise plants on tool and machine duplications / corrections / improvements. They design and develop manufacturing process and automation platforms and apply them for the realization of new product developments as well as optimization of existing products already in production. The Teams also support Product Development in the selection and optimization of tools for piece part production and the selection of the most suitable manufacturing concepts relative to planned manufacturing quantities, quality requirements and manufacturing location. They act as interface between engineering and production to ensure manufacturability of new designs and smooth production ramp up as well as support the research & development teams to produce sample manufacturing equipment, product samples and prototypes. Your main tasks

Develop innovative manufacturing solutions, driving patents and proprietary technologies. Identify value-added improvements in new and existing projects. Lead implementation of smart manufacturing and agile methodologies. Collaborate with R&D to align product designs with manufacturing capabilities. Drive standardization through platforming and Generic Technical Specifications (GTS). Evaluate new technologies and benchmark against market standards. Lead technical workshops and feasibility studies; prepare reports and quotations. Ensure manufacturability, smooth ramp-up, and continuous improvement of designs. Manage CAD design in Creo Parametric and PDM-Link; provide system admin support. Design pneumatic systems using SMC Pneudraw or E-Plan; support automation and vision integration. Oversee equipment testing, analysis, and documentation
