Our products are in use worldwide in commercial and military aircraft, lifesaving medical devices, weapon systems, inflight entertainment, power systems, and countless commercial, industrial & computer applications. Our facility is environmentally controlled, engineered for manufacturing flexibility, includes dedicated assembly labs for isolated program management, and a cleanroom facility. With dedicated professionals and assemblers regularly operating two full shifts, ISC operates with the most current high-speed tooling, material handling, and test equipment.

Job Overview

The Quoting Engineer (Application Engineer) is a key member of the Quoting Team, responsible for technical estimation and cost development of custom manufactured assemblies. This role supports the full quote-to-order process by translating customer drawings and specifications into accurate Bills of Materials (BOMs), labor estimates, and manufacturing cost models.

This is a desk-based engineering role with a strong emphasis on technical quoting, cost analysis, and cross-functional collaboration. The Application / Quoting Engineer partners closely with Sales, Manufacturing Engineering, Sourcing, and Operations to deliver accurate, competitive, and timely quotations that support business growth and margin objectives.

Prepare detailed labor estimates and manufacturing cost models for custom assemblies
Identify cost drivers including materials, labor, tooling, and process requirements
Support quote revisions, re-quotes, and engineering changes, including variance analysis

Technical Review & Interpretation

Review customer drawings, specifications, and technical documentation to define scope and requirements
Translate customer requirements into manufacturing assumptions, routing, and process steps
Evaluate manufacturability and identify risks, gaps, or opportunities in design and process

Systems & Data Management

Enter and maintain BOM, labor, and routing data within ERP and quoting systems
Ensure accuracy and integrity of data used for quoting and downstream operations

Cross-Functional Collaboration

Partner with Manufacturing Engineering, Sourcing, and Operations to validate cost assumptions and manufacturing approaches
Communicate technical and cost-related considerations and trade-offs clearly to internal stakeholders

Continuous Improvement

Contribute to the improvement of estimating tools, templates, and quoting processes
Apply knowledge of materials, components, and manufacturing processes (cable, harness, electromechanical assemblies)

Additional Responsibilities

Perform other duties as assigned in support of business needs

Must-Have Qualifications:

2-5+ years of experience in manufacturing, engineering support, estimating, or technical quoting roles
Experience working in a direct manufacturing environment
ERP / MRP system experience
Demonstrated experience developing BOMs, labor estimates, and cost breakdowns
Ability to read and interpret assembly drawings, schematics, specifications, and customer documentation
Strong analytical skills, with understanding of manufacturing cost drivers
Ability to make sound assumptions and decisions with incomplete or ambiguous data
Ability to balance speed and accuracy in a high-volume, deadline-driven environment
Critical thinking and problem-solving skills with strong attention to detail
Effective collaboration and communication across cross-functional teams
Ability to follow established processes while identifying opportunities for improvement
Proficient computer skills, including Microsoft Office applications

Bonus Points If You Have:

Contract manufacturing experience
Willingness to obtain IPC certification if not currently certified

Compensation Range:

$95,000 - $110,000/year + bonus
