You'll work across a broad range of special processes - including thermal spray coatings (APS, LPPS), EBPVD, diffusion coatings, electroplating, heat treatment, braze, chemical cleaning, laser processes, EDM, and automation - with a focus on coating technologies. Reporting to the Process Engineering Manager, you'll drive production support, develop new processes, and lead continuous improvement efforts while collaborating with teams across Quality, Operations, Customer Support, and our Engineering Center of Excellence.

This is a full-time onsite role in Orangeburg, NY (no hybrid or remote options).

• Lead root cause and corrective action (RCCA) investigations and problem-solving teams to tackle manufacturing challenges head-on.
• Partner with maintenance to build robust preventive maintenance programs and support equipment troubleshooting.
• Champion improvements to safety, quality, and productivity by questioning the status quo and driving meaningful change.
• Support new program launches, process qualifications, and design reviews alongside product and repair development engineers.
• Monitor daily quality and productivity metrics and respond quickly when issues arise.
• Represent engineering in customer meetings and cross-functional discussions.

What You'll Bring

• A degree in Mechanical Engineering, Materials Science, or a related field (other engineering disciplines welcome).
• 2+ years of experience in manufacturing or a similar environment.
• Knowledge of gas turbine processes such as heat treat, thermal spray, EBPVD, diffusion coatings, precious metal plating, or chemical cleaning - a strong plus.
• Experience with superalloy metallurgy, robotic/CNC programming, PLC and automation systems, or Six Sigma methodologies is a bonus.
• Familiarity with 3D modeling software (Siemens NX or similar) preferred.
• Aviation industry background is a plus but not required.

The salary range for this position reflects a broad spectrum of experience levels. Individual compensation within the range is determined by multiple factors, including relevant experience, education, certifications, job related skills, internal equity, and market conditions.
