REINDUSTRIALIZE
Forge complex 3D metal parts on our shop floor using 6-axis robots at Machina Labs in Detroit. Our platform streamlines traditional sheet metal production, allowing for flexible, on-demand manufacturing without the need for costly dies. As a Manufacturing Engineer, you’ll develop and document internal procedures to standardize work processes, reduce waste through lean methodologies, and ensure precision with torque specs and weld beads. This is where cutting-edge aerospace components get built.

About Machina Labs
At Machina Labs, we’re reshaping manufacturing through advanced robotics and machine learning. Our platform uses the largest 6-axis robots on the market to form 2D sheets of metal into complex 3D parts, layer-by-layer.
Traditional sheet metal production was designed for scale, not flexibility. It relies on costly dies and tooling that make lower volume projects prohibitively slow and expensive. We’re changing that. Whether you’re a startup building a few thousand airframes or an automaker prototyping next-generation components, Machina Labs gives you the ability to iterate and manufacture at the speed of software.
With support from the venture arms of Toyota, NVIDIA, and Lockheed Martin, we’re accelerating the future of manufacturing, one where factories are flexible, production is on-demand, and innovation is unconstrained.
About the Role
The Manufacturing Engineer plays a key role in creating the internal manufacturing procedures, specifications, documenting processes, and developing manufacturing methods that provides standard work in the Production Department. The Manufacturing Engineer will deploy continuous improvement methods leveraging lean methodologies to reduce waste.
