Precision Castparts
Chemical Process Manufacturing Engineer
Precision Castparts, Mentor, Ohio, United States, 44060
Position Summary
The Manufacturing Engineer is responsible for engineering activities to develop processes, define controls, and implement effective variability reduction efforts in manufacturing areas. Essential Functions
Responsibility for the caustic leaching and acid etching processes used for core removal and grain structure inspection of investment-cast turbine airfoil components. Develop manufacturing processes, establish control measures, and implement effective variability and cost reduction strategies. Collaborate with cross‑functional teams to ensure timely and effective execution of preventative maintenance on critical equipment. Implement automated solutions to enhance operator safety, reduce process variation, and improve overall process reliability. Perform daily audits to ensure adherence to established procedures on the manufacturing floor. Update and revise area procedures to improve clarity and minimize process variation. Analyze data to identify root causes and eliminate process excursions. Conduct engineering trials to assess improvements in processes, tools, and equipment. Participate in cost reduction, continuous improvement, and new part introduction (NPI) initiatives as needed. Drive process improvements to reduce scrap and rework rates. Collaborate with all levels of manufacturing, management, suppliers, and customers. Provide hands‑on, floor‑level support for investigations and problem‑solving. Perform other duties as assigned. Required Skills
Proven analytical, problem‑solving, and process improvement abilities. Demonstrated success in developing and executing action plans that deliver measurable results. Working knowledge of Zero‑Defect methodologies, including PFMEA, Control Plans, and process control. Strong ability to manage multiple tasks and priorities while adapting to changing situations. Capable of performing effectively under high‑pressure conditions and tight deadlines. Excellent written, verbal, and organizational communication skills. Strong interpersonal and leadership capabilities. Desired Skills
Highly organized and self‑motivated, with the ability to work independently and effectively in collaborative team environments. Demonstrated ability to lead programs and projects successfully. Six Sigma Green Belt or Black Belt certification preferred. Familiar with Minitab, JMP, or other statistical analysis software. Proven experience in advanced manufacturing environments. Experience & Education
Bachelor’s degree in chemical or materials engineering, or other related engineering discipline. Hands‑on experience in the airfoil investment casting industry a plus. Seniority Level
