Senior Manufacturing Engineer Assembly, Laser & Material Handling

About Ensurge Micropower Ensurge Micropower (

OSE:

ENSU) is a pioneer in solid-state microbattery technology, enabling the next generation of intelligent, connected devices. Leveraging proprietary thin-film and roll-to-roll manufacturing, Ensurge delivers safe, high-energy-density batteries for wearables, health tech, industrial sensing, and defense applications. As our technology transitions from development to production, disciplined manufacturing execution becomes the differentiator.

Role Overview:

Ensurge is seeking a Senior Manufacturing Engineer (IC) to own and scale the Assembly, Laser, and Material Handling processes from pilot through early production. This role is not just about process — it is about delivering manufacturing results. You will be responsible for: Turning engineering processes into production-capable systems Driving output, yield, and stability on the line Building the infrastructure (process, equipment, flow, documentation) required for repeatable execution This is a high-impact, hands-on role at the center of Ensurge's transition from technology demonstration to product delivery. Key Responsibilities Manufacturing Ownership & Output Own daily manufacturing performance for the Assembly, Laser, and Material Handling areas Drive output, yield, uptime, and cycle time Support production directly — troubleshooting issues in real time Partner with Operations to ensure line execution meets plan Process to Production Conversion Convert R&D processes into repeatable, production-ready workflows Define and lock: Process flows Critical parameters (CPPs) Control limits and OCAPs Ensure processes are robust, stable, and scalable Equipment & Line Readiness Work with Equipment Engineering to: Define tool requirements Improve reliability and uptime Implement process-driven upgrades Lead tool qualification and process acceptance Ensure equipment supports throughput, precision, and repeatability Hardware & Automation (Strong Plus) Design or influence: Fixtures Handling systems Assembly tooling Material Flow & Manufacturing System Design Own flow from sheet → quad → final assembly Reduce bottlenecks, WIP, and inefficiencies Improve line balance and production scheduling alignment Support layout and flow improvements as the system scales Quality, Control & Documentation Partner with Quality to implement: SPC and process control Traceability and data capture Build and maintain : SOPs Process specs Control plans Ensure manufacturing is data-driven and auditable Problem Solving & Continuous Improvement Lead structured RCA on: Yield loss Defects Downtime Implement sustainable fixes — not workarounds Drive continuous improvement aligned to operational excellence principles (standard work, DMS, etc.) What We're Looking For 7-12+ years in manufacturing engineering (battery, semiconductor, thin-film, or similar) Proven experience owning manufacturing processes on the floor Strong track record of: Driving yield and throughput improvements Supporting or leading pilot → production scale-up Hands-on mindset — comfortable working directly with: Equipment Technicians Operators Preferred Qualifications Experience with: Laser processing or micromachining Precision assembly or micro-scale systems Automated material handling Background in thin-film, semiconductor, or battery manufacturing Experience with MES, traceability systems, or data-driven manufacturing Personal Attributes Ownership mentality — sees problems through to resolution Execution-focused — prioritizes results over theory Systems thinker — understands interactions across process , equipment, and flow Low ego, high accountability — works across teams to get things done Comfortable in a fast-moving, scaling environment

Salary Range:

$161,626.00-$197,833.00 The base salary range is specific to California. The salary of the final candidate selected for this role will be determined by a variety of factors, including, but not limited to, internal equity, experience, education, specialty, and training.
