Description
About the job Manufacturing Automation Engineer
Medical Device Automation | Hands-On Builder Role
ClearPath Medical - Tustin, CA
On-site | No relocation | U.S. work authorization required
Compensation: $85,000 - $115,000 DOE + benefits
(We pay for real, hands-on automation talent; not buzzwords)
About ClearPath Medical
ClearPath Medical is an engineer-owned medical device contract manufacturer specializing in custom medical cable assemblies: designed, built, and shipped entirely in-house in Tustin, CA.
We operate with short decision loops, minimal bureaucracy, and real ownership. Our automation team builds production-ready solutions that go directly into FDA-regulated manufacturing, not science projects that die on a PowerPoint slide.
If you enjoy designing, building, wiring, programming, and improving machines yourself, you'll feel at home here.
The Role (What You'll Actually Do)
This is a hands-on manufacturing automation role, not a systems architect or desk-only engineering position.
You'll design and deploy semi-automated and automated equipment for high-mix medical manufacturing, including cable prep, crimping, soldering, labeling, and dispensing.
