Manufacturing Engineer II

Join a team focused on turning design intent into production-ready systems. This fully onsite Manufacturing Engineer II role at Regal Rexnord in West Chester, PA supports manufacture process development to transition slotted brushless DC motor prototypes into production. You will work closely with R&D and design engineering to build robust process flows, standard work, tooling, and documentation that help teams execute preproduction builds and ramp-up with confidence.

What you’ll do

• Partner with the design engineering team to support Design for Manufacturability and Assembly during concept and prototype phases.
• Support prototype builds and lead preproduction builds to identify manufacturability risks, resolve build issues, and apply countermeasures before production release.
• Lead manufacturing process development for new brushless DC motor products, including development, validation, and release of manufacturing tooling, fixtures, and equipment.
• Create and standardize process flows, standard work, cycle-time estimates, production investment plans, training materials, and operator coaching for production readiness.
• Implement PPAP and production readiness documentation, including manufacturing flow charts, control plans, PFMEAs, validation plans, and other required ISO/AS9100/RBS process controls.
• Collect, organize, and analyze build data, rolled-throughput-yield performance, and operator feedback to improve process capability, quality, safety, and overall manufacturing performance.
• Support ramp-up through troubleshooting, structured problem solving, timely action-plan execution, and cross-functional communication.
• Identify and implement opportunities in automation, smart manufacturing, machine vision, and Industry 4.0 to improve productivity, monitoring, data visibility, quality, and safety.
• Support export-controlled projects by following applicable export control requirements, controlled work instructions, access controls, and documentation practices.
• Champion Regal Rexnord culture and core values: Integrity, Responsibility, Diversity, Engagement & Inclusion, Customer Success, Innovation with Purpose, Continuous Improvement, Performance, and Passion to Win, with a sense of urgency.
