- Develop and maintain daily, weekly, and short-horizon tactical plans that translate operating targets into executable lot priorities, tool allocations, line direction, run-rate expectations, and readiness actions.
- Monitor performance to plan, WIP flow, cycle time, holds, equipment and setup readiness, and other constraints; use manufacturing data and established decision criteria to identify gaps and adjust priorities within defined guardrails.
- Coordinate multi-functional execution across Probe Operations, Equipment, Process Engineering, Test Solutions Engineering, Site Inventory Control, Industrial Engineering, AME Engineering, and planning partners.
- Develop and drive recovery plans for equipment constraints, priority conflicts, material delays, setup issues, holds, and other deviations.
- Lead clear communication of priorities, plan changes, risks, actions, and decision status through shift handoffs, passdowns, tactical reviews, and daily operational briefings.
- Maintain accurate tactical plans, trackers, standard work, quick-reference guides, and decision records to ensure execution visibility, continuity, and disciplined follow-through.
- Support steep production ramps, qualification waves, new-product introductions, engineering activities, and other high-priority manufacturing events through structured readiness and execution planning.
- Provide execution feedback and recurring-issue insights to AME Engineers and process owners to support capacity, cycle-time, readiness, line-configuration, and systemic improvement work.
- Use approved artificial intelligence, automation, analytics, and digital tools to improve planning speed, data synthesis, reporting, communication, and decision support while validating outputs, protecting confidential information, and maintaining human accountability for decisions.
MINIMUM QUALIFICATIONS
- High school diploma or equivalent; relevant technical certificate or associate degree preferred.
- 3+ years of experience in manufacturing operations, production planning, scheduling, line coordination, or a related technical environment.
- Ability to analyze production information, recognize execution gaps, and convert changing conditions into clear priorities and actions.
- Demonstrated ability to coordinate across multiple teams and communicate decisions, risks, impacts, and status clearly.
- Ability to work independently within established decision frameworks and escalate when manufacturing commitments are at risk.
- Proficiency with Microsoft Excel and common reporting, documentation, collaboration, and approved AI tools, including the ability to verify AI-assisted outputs before use.
- Commitment to safety, quality, documentation team, standard work, responsible AI use, and continuous improvement.
- Ability and willingness to work the schedule required to support manufacturing operations, including shift-based or off-hours coordination when applicable.
PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS
- Experience in semiconductor, cleanroom, high-volume, or other technically complex manufacturing environments.
- Experience with production scheduling, WIP management, cycle-time improvement, tool allocation, constraint management, line configuration, or performance-to-plan processes.
- Experience developing recovery plans or coordinating response to manufacturing deviations and execution risks.
- Familiarity with manufacturing execution systems, scheduling systems, dashboards, Power BI, Tableau, SQL, automation platforms, or similar analytical and visualization tools.
- Experience using approved AI capabilities to summarize operational information, improve reporting, develop standardized communications, or support data-driven decisions.

Mid Level Manufacturing Technologist Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get a mid level manufacturing technologist job?
Position yourself around ownership, not just task completion. Highlight projects where you led process changes, reduced defects, or improved yield without constant supervision. Emphasize cross-functional collaboration, familiarity with lean or Six Sigma methodologies, and any experience with process documentation or equipment qualification. Applications that connect your work to measurable outcomes consistently outperform those that only list responsibilities.
Which companies hire mid level manufacturing technologists?
Companies hiring mid level manufacturing technologists right now include Jobot, Tesla, and Apple, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. At this level, hiring tends to come from established manufacturers, medical device companies, semiconductor fabs, and defense contractors that need technologists who can sustain and improve production processes with limited hand-holding.
Are there remote mid level manufacturing technologist jobs?
Yes, though most manufacturing technologist roles require hands-on equipment access. About 7% of mid level manufacturing technologist openings are remote or hybrid as of November 2026, and those tend to be concentrated in process engineering support, documentation, or quality systems roles where physical presence on the production floor is not required every day.
How do I move up to a mid level manufacturing technologist role?
Moving from entry level to mid level takes deliberate expansion of scope over time. Focus on taking ownership of a full process or product line rather than individual tasks, building proficiency in root cause analysis, and documenting improvements in ways others can follow. Earning a certification in lean manufacturing or Six Sigma Green Belt signals readiness for increased responsibility and is a common milestone employers look for.
Which industries hire the most mid level manufacturing technologists?
Mid Level manufacturing technologist roles concentrate in Manufacturing, Electronics & Hardware, and Staffing & Recruiting, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. These sectors drive hiring because they operate high-complexity production environments where mid level technologists are needed to sustain quality, optimize throughput, and support continuous improvement programs between senior engineering oversight.
