About the Team: The Engine Manufacturing team is dedicated to delivering high-performance engines and advancing innovative manufacturing systems that continuously improve cost, quality, and lead time. You're not just executing on designs; you actively provide input that shapes new hardware iterations and regularly interface with engineers to make critical decisions for the Aeon R program. Having successfully developed and refined processes for our initial development engines, the team is now focused on producing flight engines at rate for Terran R's aggressive launch manifest.
*note* First shift hours are 6am - 3pmAbout the Role:- Own the AeonR integrated assembly from design release to integration to shipment. This will include developing the build process to meet production targets and reduce build issues.
- Develop processes and specs that directly impact the production rate of AeonR engines.
- Support production as needed to deliver engines by resolving build issues, receiving and implementing technician feedback, supporting BOM updates and build checkouts.
- Support work center development by considering assembly operations, tooling and capital equipment requirements, and rate targets. You will also support engine work center development across sites.
- Author test procedures and act as test conductor to verify as-installed hardware health and build integrity.
- Assist with developing the business tools and processes that will be used to manufacture the first launch vehicle. In parallel, help to define and pilot the long-term ERP, MES, and QMS solutions that will enable high-quality, efficient vehicle manufacturing.
About You:- Degree in engineering or related technical field and 2+ years of relevant experience
- Strong communication skills, and ability to write detailed work instructions and process plans
- Ability to effectively investigate, resolve and screen hardware non-conformances
- Ability to work with and train technicians
- Ability to work with vendors to get parts made quickly and reliably
- Familiarity with Additive Manufacturing, Subtractive Manufacturing and associated precision inspection techniques
Nice to haves but not required: - Experience leading a small team
- Experience in a startup or agile development environment
- Experience working in a propulsion development program
