At Senra Systems, we believe that the future of manufacturing lies not in automation, but in configuration.     We supercharge electrical wire harness manufacturing through software configuration, transforming skilled assembly tasks into high-throughput production lines. We enable customers to design what they want, when they want it and deliver harness builds at record-breaking speed. We’re seeking a Senior Manufacturing Engineer to take ownership of complex wire harness programs across our customer portfolio. You’ll develop engineering packages including detailed work instructions and formboards, drive process improvements and serve as the technical point of contact for assigned programs, working closely with production, quality and customers to deliver.    You’ll own programs end-to-end – managing customer relationships, solving complex technical challenges, developing build processes, and ensuring quality and delivery targets are met. You need to be self-sufficient, technically deep, and comfortable operating with minimal direction.    This role reports to the Lead Manufacturing Engineer but operates with significant independence day-to-day.   What you'll own: Manufacturing Engineering & Process Development   Lead planning and coordination of complex harness builds by developing comprehensive work instructions, formboards, and tooling solutions   Establish manufacturing standards and processes that enable production to build efficiently and autonomously   Drive improvements to quality, efficiency, and throughput through process benchmarking and workflow optimization   Evaluate new parts and processes, determining optimal paths for assembly and scalability   Commission new equipment, qualify processes, and optimize production flow as needed   Partner with the production team on technical issues that require engineering disposition, providing structured solutions rather than ad hoc floor support   Continuous Improvement & Site Operations    Work with the production team to surface systemic issues, translating recurring blockers into process improvements and engineering solutions   Collaborate with the software team on digital solutions to improve traceability, workflow, and reporting   Maintain 5S, lean manufacturing principles, and adherence to aerospace quality standards   Develop and maintain engineering documentation that keeps assigned programs aligned with IPC-620/NASA 8739.4 and customer-specific requirements   Customer Program Management    Serve as the primary technical liaison between production and assigned customers   Manage complex technical inquiries, resolve escalated issues, and ensure adherence to stringent specifications   Collaborate with the Program Management Team on program reviews and customer communications, providing technical depth and engineering rationale as needed    Coordinate cross-functionally with production, quality, and supply chain to maintain program momentum and resolve blockers   What you'll bring to the team: Bachelor's degree in engineering, STEM-related field, or 8+ years of directly related hands-on manufacturing experience   5+ years of manufacturing engineering experience in fast-paced production environments (wire harness, electrical assembly, or similar)   Proven ability to work independently with minimal supervision in a high-accountability role   Strong customer-facing skills with ability to manage technical relationships and communicate effectively   Proficiency in CAD tools for creating assembly drawings and tool
