Job description

About the company

Our client is a manufacturing company.

The role

Raydar is recruiting for this role on behalf of our client. Take ownership of engineering projects on a production floor, blending software and hardware know-how to keep operations running smoothly. You will judge what is worth building as priorities change and deliver practical tools with a measurable effect on the business.

What you'll do

- Lead production-facing projects from idea through delivery, choosing the right mix of software and hardware.

- Develop and refine internal systems that support day-to-day plant operations, including pricing, planning, automation and reporting.

- Decide what to build and what to drop as priorities move quickly.

- Learn the business thoroughly during your first month.

- Deliver polished, easy-to-use tools within about three months.

- Demonstrate measurable gains in revenue, speed, retention and overall efficiency by around six months.

Requirements

What we're looking for

- 2 to 5 years of experience, ideally in early-stage, small-team or growing-product settings rather than a long corporate career.

- Hands-on experience creating technology that has to work alongside physical equipment and real production limits.

- A versatile, broad-skilled engineer who picks whichever technical route gets results.

- Confidence owning complete systems and projects independently.

- Fluency with modern AI tools to speed up your work.

- Strong self-direction and a focus on results.

- A collaborative, team-first attitude, openness to feedback and positive energy.

- Readiness for a demanding, in-person working pace.

Bonus points

- Hardware background, such as vision or sensor work.

- Experience with student engineering teams, rocketry or engineering competitions.

- Experience at an equipment manufacturer or a modern digital manufacturing business.

Benefits

- Base salary: USD 120,000 to 200,000 per year

- Health, dental and vision coverage

Location and work model

- Detroit, MI, United States
