Responsibilities
Develop and industrialize advanced manufacturing processes including casting, forging, HIP, small hole EDM, EDM sinkers, coatings and additive manufacturing
Partner closely with Materials & Processes engineers to ensure designs are physically buildable
Own process development from early experimentation through repeatable production
Evaluate, propose, and technically defend vertical integration decisions — determining when advanced manufacturing processes should be developed in-house versus sourced externally, based on capability, cost, schedule, and risk
Work with internal teams and external vendors to qualify processes and suppliers
Translate material and process constraints into actionable design-for-manufacturing guidance
Support part transitions from R&D builds to scalable production methods
Diagnose manufacturing failures and drive root-cause resolution across materials and processes
Qualification
Required
Experience developing or owning advanced manufacturing processes
Hands-on familiarity with one or more of: centrifugal casting, investment casting, open-air casting, lost-PLA casting, HIP, heat treat, additive manufacturing, or forging
Strong understanding of how material behavior, geometry, and process interact
Comfortable working across design, materials, quality, and suppliers
Able to move fluidly between experimental builds and production-minded execution
Demonstrates a strong work ethic and ambition, complemented by effective collaboration skills in a team setting
Excels in a high-energy, independent, and challenging work environment
To conform to U.S. Government aerospace technology export regulations (ITAR and EAR), applicant must be a U.S. citizen, lawful permanent resident of the U.S., protected individual as defined by 8 U.S.C 1324b(a)(3), or eligible to obtain the required authorizations from the U.S. Department of State
Preferred
Experience scaling advanced manufacturing processes beyond R&D
Deep additive manufacturing experience — including hands-on work with production metal AM systems (EOS strongly preferred), with a strong understanding of slicing, build setup, support strategy, and process parameter development (not just running machines)
Direct experience qualifying new materials, processes and vendors
Background in aerospace, turbomachinery, or high-temperature alloys
Proven ability to turn early-stage processes into reliable production workflows
Benefits
Long-term incentives/equity
A flexible PTO policy
Many other progressive benefits
