Full job description

Quanta Dynamics is growing and adding a Manufacturing Engineer to our Evanston operation.

About Quanta Dynamics

Quanta Dynamics is a family-owned technology and manufacturing engineering business based in Evanston. Founded in 2015, we run 1 location in the Quad Cities and employ a tight team that values doing the work well over scale.

About the role

You'll design and improve the processes that make the product: laying out production lines, writing and updating standard work, specifying tooling and fixtures, and running time studies to find and remove bottlenecks. You'll lead root-cause investigations on scrap and downtime, justify and commission new equipment, and support new product introductions so designs actually build cleanly on the floor. You'll spend real time at the line, not just in CAD.

What you will bring

You bring an engineering foundation plus floor-level curiosity: you'd rather watch ten cycles at the station than guess from a spreadsheet. You're rigorous with data, practical about what operators will actually adopt, and persistent about closing out improvements instead of leaving them at 80 percent.

Interested? Apply through this listing. First-round interviews typically within 10 business days.

Required Qualifications

  • Degree in mechanical, industrial, or manufacturing engineering, or equivalent experience
  • 3+ years in a manufacturing engineering or process engineering role
  • Experience with lean tools, time studies, and root-cause problem solving; P.Eng. eligibility an asset
  • Eligibility to work in Canada

Benefits

  • 401(k) match up to 5 percent
  • Paid time off (15-20 days) plus federal holidays
  • Tuition reimbursement for advanced engineering coursework
  • Competitive base salary with annual review
