Job Description
CONFIDENTIAL MANUFACTURING ENGINEER — ELGIN, IL
Salary : $85–95K (up to $105–110K for the right fit) + Annual Bonus
Industry : Commercial Equipment / Industrial Manufacturing
Type : Full-Time, Onsite
A well-established and highly respected commercial equipment manufacturer in the Elgin, IL area is seeking a hands-on Manufacturing Engineer to join their growing engineering and operations team. This company is known for building durable, high-performance industrial products used globally by major household brands. With decades of industry leadership and a significant product legacy, the organization is entering a period of strategic growth, retirements, and succession planning, creating a strong long-term runway for this new hire.

- Hands-on impact : Split time between engineering activities and being directly on the production floor driving improvements, solving problems, and partnering with operators.
- Strong stability : Long-established products with an ongoing pipeline of updates, cost-saving initiatives, and continuous improvement projects.
- Comprehensive benefits : PTO, paid holidays, medical / dental / vision, life insurance, and additional perks.
What You’ll Do
This Manufacturing Engineer will spend at least 50% of their time on the shop floor supporting daily manufacturing needs and driving operational excellence.
Key responsibilities include :
This role is perfect for someone who loves being hands-on, thrives in fast-moving environments, and wants to make an immediate impact on the floor.
