We’re hiring a Manufacturing Engineer with 5+ years of experience to help us develop, implement, and optimize cost-effective manufacturing processes at our Maryville facility. Our plant relies on precision and efficiency to deliver world-class products—particularly within injection molding and assembly operations. We’re looking for a highly analytical, hands-on problem solver to elevate our operations.
This is an ownership-driven opportunity for an engineer who thrives on managing the complete lifecycle of manufacturing processes with minimal supervision. One day you might be researching material flow and cooling paths for complex injection molding dies, and the next you’re modifying MasterCAM solid models, coordinating a new product launch, or validating mold designs with external suppliers.
As you grow, so will your impact. You’ll lead critical cost-reduction and continuous improvement projects, champion lean principles, and collaborate cross-functionally with everyone from Product Engineering to Quality and Purchasing. We are a team-oriented environment that values autonomy, technical expertise, and results.
If you are excited by taking the lead on complex projects and making things better every day, we want to talk.

Laborup is the #1 AI powered talent platform for America’s industrial workforce. We use AI to create jobs, not take them away. We help HR and plant leaders hire and keep the skilled workers who keep plants running: machinists, welders, maintenance techs, operators, industrial electricians, and engineers. USA Today called us the “LinkedIn for blue collar workers,” and Forbes profiled our work in “How AI Is Solving America’s 1 Trillion Dollar Manufacturing Labor Crisis.”
Today we work with manufacturers from 50 person shops to large public companies with tens of thousands of employees, and the story is the same everywhere. It is hard to find talent, hard to keep good people, and staffing costs keep rising. In a market where filling critical industrial roles can take months and turnover is constant, Laborup helps teams move qualified workers from first contact to on site interview in days instead of weeks and keep them on the floor longer.
Most of the workers our customers need are not on LinkedIn or the usual job boards. Laborup uses AI to find this hidden workforce, call and text them, screen and qualify them, build real profiles, and match them directly to the plants and roles where they can succeed. For workers, that means real, permanent roles at serious manufacturers, not one off gigs. For companies, it is durable infrastructure for hiring and retention at scale in a labor market that will stay tight for years.
We work across nuclear, defense, and advanced manufacturing, as well as sectors like aerospace, automotive, and food production. Teams that use Laborup hire 5 to 10 times faster, see around 3 times better retention, and cut cost per hire by up to 50 to 70 percent. That turns into fewer empty shifts, fewer missed orders, more stable teams, and more capacity without more headache.
We are building the modern talent system for America’s industrial base with a simple long term goal: put a billion industrial workers to work in good jobs that matter.
