Are you passionate about driving quality improvements in manufacturing? Apply now to shape our future as Manufacturing Engineer!

Microtrac is a pioneer and leading manufacturer of light scattering instruments for particle analysis. While Microtrac existed first as a business segment within a larger organization, the company Microtrac Inc. was ultimately founded in 1999 and has since been growing steadily. The instruments are used both for industrial applications and material research. We believe that our journey is far from complete. We're looking for innovators and critical thinkers who are eager to challenge the status quo, are willing to contribute new ideas and take over responsibility. If you are passionate about your work and are looking for a position where you can make a tangible impact, we want you on our team.

Ensuring product excellence is critical to our reputation and customer satisfaction. We’re seeking a Manufacturing Engineer to lead our quality and continuous improvement initiatives. In this key role, you’ll drive compliance efforts, partner across departments to enhance manufacturing processes, and ensure our products consistently meet the highest standards of performance and reliability. At Microtrac, you don’t just work—you empower yourself by growing your skills, making an impact, and shaping the future of lab technology.

  • Create internal tracking tools for inspections and quality issues to ensure transparency and quick response.
  • Lead root cause investigations and corrective/preventative actions, internally and with suppliers, to prevent recurrence of issues.
  • Support MRB activities, including containment, audits, and disposition of defective parts, maintaining high product reliability.
  • Provide quality guidance to New Product Development, ensuring robust designs and smooth product launches.

  • Computer proficiency (MS Office, file/database management) and attention to detail in documentation and reporting are demonstrated skills.
  • Project management skills and the ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously are part of your toolkit.
  • Experience with design software (Solid Works, Solid Edge) and knowledge of manufacturing processes such as injection molding, machining, or stamping are assets.
  • Available for early morning Teams meetings and thrive in a collaborative, cross-functional environment.
  • Experience in ISO 9001-regulated environments, supplier quality audits, or process quality plans is a plus.
  • Familiarity with problem-solving tools (root cause analysis, statistical tools, FMEA, APQP) and a strong ownership mindset will set you apart.
  • Medical Device Manufacturing experience a plus.
