Job Title

Manufacturing Engineer (Mid-Level)

Who are we?

As an aircraft manufacturer, industrialist, industrial service provider and logistician, Daher currently has approximately 14,500 employees and achieved a revenue of 1.9 billion euros in 2025. With its family ownership, Daher has been focused on innovation since its creation in 1863. With locations in 15 countries across Europe, North America and Asia, Daher designs and develops value-added solutions for its aeronautical and industrial customers and partners

Kodiak Aircraft is seeking a capable Manufacturing Engineer to help turn aircraft design intent into repeatable, efficient, and controlled production methods.

This role connects Design Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, Production, Quality, Tooling, Supply Chain, ERP, and cost. You will work with Senior Manufacturing Engineers and production teams to improve build sequence, methods, manufacturing documentation, tooling needs, and DFM feedback.

This is not a role where you simply document what someone else decides. It is a growth role with real ownership in assigned areas, shop-floor engagement, and a path toward broader autonomy over time.

Why this role matters: better methods, clearer work content, practical DFM feedback, and stronger shop-floor alignment help reduce rework, build inconsistency, and unnecessary labor.

What This Role Is

We are looking for someone who can independently handle day-to-day method improvements and DFM analysis within their area, while knowing when to bring in the Manufacturing Engineering Lead or senior support for higher-risk or broader-system decisions.

What You Will Do

  • • Work side-by-side with mechanics to solve real build problems and make processes more practical, ergonomic, and executable.
  • • Support and improve build sequences, work content, and line flow within assigned production areas.
  • • Use CAD models and type design drawings to understand design intent and identify where production can be made easier.
  • • Author manufacturing prints or models that ease production while remaining traceable to type design and within fit, form, and function.
  • • Build and present design-change cases to Design Engineering with appropriate senior or lead support.
  • • Support labor-hour reduction, rework reduction, tooling definition, ERP alignment, and supplier manufacturability issue resolution.

What We Are Looking For

  • • Bachelor’s degree in Aerospace, Mechanical, Industrial, Manufacturing Engineering, or a related field.
  • • 5-7 years of manufacturing engineering experience, preferably in aerospace or complex assembly.
  • • Strong hands-on understanding of machining, sheet metal, welding, composites, and mechanical or electrical assembly, with depth in at least one area and working knowledge across others.
  • • Strong CAD proficiency and fluency reading and interpreting engineering drawings, including GD&T per ASME Y14.5.
  • • Experience with DFM analysis and manufacturing-specific documentation, or strong aptitude and willingness to build this capability.
  • • Working ERP experience such as Epicor or SAP, including eBOM/mBOM reconciliation and routings.
  • • Credibility on the shop floor, good judgment, root-cause problem solving, and a track record of following through on assigned work.

Preferred

  • Experience in general aviation or low-rate high-mix aerospace production, introducing manufacturing print or DFM practices to an existing product, Lean or continuous improvement, AS9100 or FAA/FAR Part 23 manufacturing environments, and supplier manufacturability or delivery issue resolution.

Why Kodiak Aircraft in Sandpoint?

  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
