DESCRIPTION
Amazon Web Services’ Hardware Engineering team is looking for experienced professionals to help build the world’s premier cloud computing platform. We are looking for Manufacturing Engineers who are capable of operating in a fast paced, ever changing, multi-platform international manufacturing and production environment.
Sr. Manufacturing Process Engineers work closely with our Design Partners (DP's) to scale up our production on NPIs and ensure that we can meet the production and quality targets. You will also work with CMs, internal AWS hardware and software development teams, and with upstream component vendors to monitor and improve the incoming hardware quality of AWS products both proactively in the design phase as well as monitoring, reporting and investigating any early-life product failures. This role requires the engineer to be a technical contact and take on full ownership of the manufacturing launch and resolution of process issues. You will be the driver in getting production up and running, understanding root cause of hardware failures and resolving gaps in our suppliers manufacturing processes. We expect the individual to travel and be on-site at the Manufacturing sites globally, with up to 50% travel anticipated.
You’ll join a diverse team of software, hardware, and network engineers, supply chain specialists, security experts, operations managers, and other vital roles. You’ll collaborate with people across AWS to help us deliver the highest standards for safety and security while providing seemingly infinite capacity at the lowest possible cost for our customers.

Manufacturing Process Engineer Jobs in Texas: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a manufacturing process engineer in Texas?
The standard path starts with a bachelor's degree in mechanical, industrial, chemical, or manufacturing engineering from an ABET-accredited program. Texas does not require a mandatory license to work as a manufacturing process engineer in most industry settings, but senior roles often prefer or require a Professional Engineer license issued by the Texas Board of Professional Engineers, which involves passing the FE and PE exams. Earning a Six Sigma Green Belt or Lean certification strengthens competitiveness with major Texas manufacturers.
How much do manufacturing process engineers make in Texas?
Manufacturing process engineers in Texas earn a median of about $104,560 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $67,490 for the lowest 10% to over $168,670 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.
Which companies hire manufacturing process engineers in Texas?
Employers hiring manufacturing process engineers in Texas right now include Celestica, Coherent, and Applied Materials, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of June 2026. Texas's concentration of aerospace, defense, semiconductor, and petrochemical facilities means demand stays consistent across both large corporations and mid-size contract manufacturers throughout the state.
Which Texas cities have the most manufacturing process engineer jobs?
Austin, Richardson, and Sherman have the most manufacturing process engineer openings in Texas. Houston's concentration of petrochemical plants and industrial equipment manufacturers drives its volume, Dallas-Fort Worth benefits from aerospace, defense, and semiconductor facilities including major Lockheed Martin and Texas Instruments sites, and San Antonio's growing advanced manufacturing and military installation base supports steady demand in that corridor.
Are there remote manufacturing process engineer jobs in Texas?
Yes, but they're rare. Manufacturing process engineering is fundamentally a hands-on, plant-floor role that requires physical presence to observe equipment, run trials, and implement process changes. About 6% of manufacturing process engineer openings tied to Texas are remote or hybrid as of June 2026, and those positions typically involve process documentation, supplier quality review, or systems engineering work that can be handled off-site.
How can I get hired as a manufacturing process engineer in Texas with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is through a co-op or internship with a major Texas manufacturer during your engineering degree, which frequently converts to a full-time offer. Companies like Texas Instruments, Lockheed Martin, and large Houston-area petrochemical firms run structured new-graduate rotational programs designed for candidates without professional experience. Lateral entry from roles like manufacturing technician, quality inspector, or production supervisor is also common, and earning an FE certification from the Texas Board of Professional Engineers gives early-career candidates a measurable edge.
Where can I find and apply to manufacturing process engineer jobs in Texas?
