MANUFACTURING ENGINEER (Rural Hall, NC)

Snapshot of Your Day:

We are looking for a

in Rural Hall, NC for development and implementation of manufacturing work instructions for complex machining processes including line-ups, standard operating processes, and quality control process sheets for non-conventional machining processes, such as EDM and ECM.

- Collaborate with management, product engineering, peer engineers, and operators to realize high quality, stable processes for complex, non-conventional machining production of rotating blades and stationary vanes components.

- Development of Manufacturing Quality Control Plans / Part Inspection Plans for managing and improving capability of the production process.

- Scheduling, design of experiments, experimentation, reporting, documentation with full responsibility for due dates, results and costs associated with field of activities.

- Responsible for quality control information (manual and Coordinate Measurement Machine, CMM, dimension checks) and work with production personnel to adjust production run machining processes.

- Implement, troubleshoot, and improve machining and associated processes.

- Collaborate with Quality Engineer to conduct Root Cause Corrective Analyses.

- Lead continuous process improvements (analysis, solution finding, implementation) around machining processes and methods.

- Perform and assess manufacturing data to determine opportunities for improvement and lead teams to successfully implement changes.

- Support quoting efforts by providing cost estimates.

- Assist and provide direction for design and development of fixturing for machining processes.

- Assist in design of specialty fixturing, tooling, electrodes, for non-conventional machining processes.

- Review tooling inventory and adjust stocking levels based on production run usage.

- Lead and support Capital Expense (CAPEX) projects and Return On Investment (ROI) calculations.

What You Bring:

- Bachelor’s degree in Manufacturing, Industrial, or Mechanical Engineering, or a related field and 5 years of experience.

- Full term of experience must include: Electrochemical Machining (ECM) process for gas turbines/aerospace turbines;

- Custom tooling and fixture design for non-conventional machining process using CAD software;

- Process development and optimization of non-conventional machining process for gas turbine/aerospace applications;

- MQCP, Gauge R&R, process capability, PFMEA, First Article inspections reports;

- Metallographic examination of recast layer and intergranular attack (IGA);

- Process control for non-conventional machining; and

- Interpretation of product and manufacturing drawing and specifications.

- Experience must also include: Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM);

- Identifying, analyzing, correcting ECM/EDM, and related non-conventional machining process issues such as surface finish, electrode/cathode wear, flushing, erosion rate and dimensional control.

- The position is eligible for the Employee Referral Program.
