Sr. Manufacturing Engineer
About the role
Antora is scaling production while preparing the newest generation of our product and a new gigafactory to build it in. We are looking for a manufacturing engineer to own continuous improvement on our current production line, develop the processes for our next‑generation product, and help bring the new factory up. On the current line, you will own rate, yield, and stability, driven from data and standard work, in partnership with the skilled technicians who build the product every day. For the new product generation, you will develop station‑level processes from product design through production validation. In the new factory, you will contribute manufacturing requirements to its design, commission equipment and processes on site, and hand a running line to the team that will operate it. You will be the engineer the line counts on today, and one of the people who defines how we build tomorrow.
Responsibilities
- Own the performance of the current production line – be the accountable engineer for rate, yield, and stability on the mainline through the remaining Gen1 program.
- Drive continuous improvement against the established baseline: cycle time, first‑pass yield, and top loss drivers, with visible results.
- Lead structured problem solving from containment through permanent corrective action, and address non‑conformances as they arise.
- Share in system ownership across the line, carrying assigned subsystems through production support and product version changes: process plan and work instruction releases, ECO incorporation, tooling readiness, and technician training.
- Share in the team's standing work: EVT build support, issue triage, tooling upkeep, and equipment commissioning.
- Work with manufacturing specialists to identify issues and drive them down, and build their capability to run and improve processes independently.
- Improve safety through partnership with production and EH&S.
- Develop
