As an Engineering Technician, you will support the Process Engineering team to ensure we are building high-quality parts using our proprietary metal manufacturing systems. This role will help to ensure the health of the Stack Forging process and instate process improvements and developments. It also involves working cross functionally between operations, quality, engineering teams, designers and other technicians. The Engineering Technician role offers opportunities to take on more advanced technical work, help integrate standard checks into production routines, and develop toward process engineering responsibilities.
Who you are
The ideal candidate is detail-oriented, methodical, and effective in both laboratory and production environments. You have hands-on inspection or laboratory experience, are proficient with measuring instruments, and produces data that is accurate, complete, and well documented. You're also comfortable using coding or computational tools to organize and analyze data, and recognizes that small deviations in settings or missed checks can lead to significant downstream issues.
You work effectively with engineers, operators, and quality personnel, communicates clearly, and escalates concerns promptly. You approvach problems analytically, gathers evidence to support root cause investigations, and brings a background in metals, laser cutting, additive manufacturing, or chemical engineering.
This role requires 5 days onsite per week in Burlington, MA. Candidates must be commuting distance to the facility, or able to relocate. Various relocation packages are available. Sponsorship is not available for this position. US Citizens and/or Permanent Residents of the US will only be considered.
How you will do it
Perform, record and analyze measurements associated with test builds, controlled builds and in-process checks
Perform weekly settings checks on all production machines, including laser cutting, bonding presses, and sheet handling equipment
Document settings against released process parameters and escalate any deviations
Aid in the improvement and development of SOPs related to process steps and equipment Process Health Checks
Record, organize, and analyze test data, using scripts or other computational tools where appropriate, so that process trends can be monitored over time
Triage production issues, collect relevant data and samples, and escalate issues accordingly
Aid in root cause investigations through data analysis, sample preparation, and testing
Support the implementation and verification of corrective actions in collaboration with engineering, operations, and quality teams
Operate novel metal manufacturing systems used to build aluminum and copper parts, including laser cutting, bonding presses, and sheet handling equipmen
