Job Description

URGENT: Manufacturing Engineer (Aerospace & Defense)

Columbus, MS

We’re hiring a hands-on Manufacturing Engineer to support active aerospace & defense production programs (missile canisters & launch systems).

This is not a “sit behind a desk” role — you’ll be on the shop floor, solving real problems, driving production, and making an immediate impact.

Why This Role Stands Out

  • Direct impact on live defense programs (not future concepts)
  • High visibility with leadership
  • Fast hiring process (interviews happening now)
  • Strong compensation + relocation support

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Own process development & work instructions for complex build-to-print parts
  • Lead NPI (New Product Introduction) & production ramp-up
  • Support machining, welding, fabrication & assembly operations
  • Create & manage BOMs, tooling, and manufacturing layouts
  • Troubleshoot real-time shop floor issues
  • Drive Lean / Kaizen improvements (reduce waste, improve throughput)

✅ What We’re Looking For

  • 7–12 years of Manufacturing Engineering experience
  • Strong background in:
  • CNC Machining (mills/lathes)
  • Welding & Metal Fabrication
  • Complex Assembly
  • Experience with:
  • Process development
  • BOMs & production support
  • Comfortable working hands-on on the shop floor
  • Aerospace / Defense experience preferred
  • AS9100 or high-precision manufacturing = big plus

⚡ Why We’re Hiring Urgently

  • Supporting active production builds
  • Immediate need for someone who can step in and contribute Day 1

Interested?
