- Lead the FMEA (Failure Mode and Effects Analysis) process to identify and mitigate potential risks in new product designs and manufacturing processes.
- Ensure the PPAP (Production Part Approval Process) is followed for all new products including documentation part submissions and approval processes to meet customer requirements and industry standards.
- Process Planning & Mapping:
- Develop document and implement process plans for new and existing parts ensuring that all processes are optimized for quality cost and efficiency.
- Map out workflows ensuring that processes are welldefined and align with manufacturing capabilities timelines and quality standards.
- CNC Part ProveOut & Configuration Management:
- Oversee part proveout activities on CNC machines to ensure that parts meet specified design and quality requirements.
- Manage configuration management ensuring that all designs part drawings and manufacturing processes are updated and maintained consistently across all production stages.
- 2D 3D Programming & Problem Solving:
- Utilize expertise in 2D and 3D programming to generate and optimize machining programs for CNC machines.
- Provide technical support for problemsolving during the production process including troubleshooting machining issues quality concerns and design challenges.
- Ensure that engineering designs are fully executable and manufacturable while maintaining high levels of accuracy.
- Process Knowledge on Special Processes:
- Oversee and ensure the correct application of special processes such as heat treatment vacuum brazing special coatings and assembly processes to meet aerospace component specifications.
- Collaborate with quality and operations teams to ensure these processes are controlled documented and compliant with aerospace requirements.
- Machining Techniques Inspection Methods & Jigs/Fixturing:
- Provide technical leadership on advanced machining techniques including CNC programming tooling selection and the application of jigs and fixturing.
- Ensure that inspection methods including nondestructive testing (NDT) are properly employed to maintain product quality and reliability.
- Lead the development and validation of jigs and fixtures for accurate part positioning and repeatable processes.
- Tool Selection Tool Life & Cost Monitoring:
- Oversee the selection of tools for machining operations ensuring that the right tools are chosen based on material complexity and process requirements.
- Monitor tool life and cost to ensure the optimization of tool usage and replacement schedules balancing costefficiency with quality requirements.
- Collaborate with purchasing and production teams to control tooling inventory and reduce toolingrelated costs.
- Production Part ProveOut & Cycle Time Monitoring:
- Lead the production part proveout process ensuring parts meet quoted cycle times and quality standards before mass production.
- Manage the rejection level and First Time Right (FTR) concepts working closely with production teams to minimize defects and rework.
- Continuously evaluate production processes and implement improvements to reduce waste increase efficiency and improve part quality.
- Leadership & Team Collaboration:
- Lead and mentor the engineering team fostering a culture of collaboration continuous improvement and technical excellence.
- Work closely with other departments (e.g. production quality supply chain) to ensure smooth coordination and ontime delivery of aerospace components.
- Drive the implementation of best practices and support the continuous development of the team s technical skills.
