Job Description Summary We’re looking for a progressive, people-centered technical leader to lead our Casting Technology Sub-Section—a group that owns casting technical excellence and delivery reliability across our aerospace business. Prevent delivery issues before they occur by influencing design, establishing strong standards, and partnering deeply with suppliers for producibility. Lead decisively when challenges arise, using technical judgment, collaboration, and clear prioritization to protect our customers. If you’re energized by developing people, solving hard technical problems, and owning outcomes— this role offers real scope and impact. You’ll lead a team that shapes decisions early, where the biggest delivery risks and opportunities live. You’ll own the technical systems that enable predictable delivery, not just react when it’s threatened. You’ll influence design, suppliers, and standards across a global aerospace value chain. You’ll help build a culture rooted in respect, transparency, learning, and accountability.

Desired Characteristics and Experience

Motivated to learn continuously, improve systems, and raise standards

Led teams, projects, or technical initiatives—and ready to expand impact
