Job Description

You'll work at the intersection of engineering, data, and sales — translating customer specs and BOMs into accurate, competitive quotes using our internal costing tools and databases. This is a great fit for someone with a few years of hands-on manufacturing, quoting, or process engineering experience who wants to grow into a specialized, high-impact technical role.

What You'll Do

\n
• Review customer RFQs, drawings, Gerber files, and BOMs to determine manufacturability and cost drivers
\n
• Generate accurate PCB fabrication quotes using estimating software and internal pricing databases
\n
• Analyze historical quoting and production data to refine cost models and pricing algorithms
\n
• Identify cost-saving opportunities through DFM (Design for Manufacturability) feedback
\n
• Maintain and improve quoting databases, templates, and automated estimating tools
\n
• Collaborate with sales, engineering, and production teams to ensure quote accuracy and turnaround speed
\n
• Track win/loss data and margin performance to continuously improve estimating accuracy
\n
• Support development of quoting algorithms/spreadsheet models that speed up turnaround for standard vs. complex boards
\n

What You Bring

\n
• 3–5 years of experience in PCB manufacturing, electronics manufacturing, cost estimating, or a related engineering role
\n
• Strong Excel skills (pivot tables, formulas, macros/VBA a plus); comfort building and working with structured databases
\n
• Familiarity with PCB fabrication processes (layer count, materials, finishes, tolerances) is preferred.
\n
• Analytical mindset — comfortable working with data sets, cost models, and pricing logic
\n
• Experience with ERP/MRP or quoting software a plus, not required
\n
• Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Industrial Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, or equivalent experience
\n
• Detail-oriented with strong problem-solving skills and ability to manage multiple quotes under deadline pressure
\n

Nice to Have

\n
• Exposure to SQL or database querying
\n
• Experience building or improving cost-estimation algorithms or tools
\n
• Background in a PCB fab house, EMS provider, or contract manufacturer
\n
