6+ Month contract
Interim or Active Secret required
What is the primary mission of this role?
• The primary mission of this role is to provide essential Manufacturing Engineering support in a machining factory. The focus will be on maintaining product throughput though a highly technical role of working in a machining environment to support factory floor troubleshooting on CNC equipment (Lathe and Mill), updating engineering documentation to support increased throughput and meeting technical requirements.
What are the main functions of this role include but are not limited to:
• Continuously work with Machinists to improve machining efficiencies and train machinists on operations to meet hardware requirements. This will be primary responsibility.
• Use knowledge of cutting tool technology, fixture design, machining, and CNC programming techniques, to establish best practices for production and provide feedback to drafting engineering to incorporate into future design iterations.
• Apply knowledge of cutting tools and machining parameters to create production level CNC programs then prove out 1st piece on 3,4,5-axis Mills and live tooling lathe
• Support training of Production machinists in support of knowledge base growth and development.
• Responsible for the sustainment of standard machining techniques through development of documentation to support machining programs using Computer Aided Manufacturing systems.
• Using Technical Expertise to help drive meeting production expectations of productivity, quality, and safety.
• Utilize lean manufacturing methods to enhance manufacturing efficiencies and reduce costs.
• Ensuring processes yield product that meets cost and quality expectations, with reliability and consistency.
• Perform research for equipment acquisition; develop Return on Investment (ROI) reports for equipment acquisition justification.
• Support new product introduction and development
• Generate tooling concepts and cycle time estimates for bidding purposes
• Act as a troubleshooter for assembly / machining process / manufacturing problems.
• Resolve problems and work with Application Engineering, Purchasing, Quality Representatives, Product and Process Suppliers, and customers to resolve issues.
• Maintain clean and safe work environment. Follow safety and environmental procedures and regulations. Report safety and environmental incidents to supervisor.
