Sr. Composite Process Engineer

GEOTEK manufactures engineered composite products for global infrastructure. We're looking for an engineer to own our filament winding process- driving continuous improvement, designing manufacturing tooling and equipment, and solving production problems independently.

  • Lead design and development of manufacturing fixtures and production tooling using CAD
  • Drive continuous improvement initiatives; challenge current processes to improve safety, quality, and productivity
  • Provide technical guidance to operations teams on root cause analysis and process issues
  • Develop production work instructions, troubleshooting guides, and best practices documentation
  • Support new product development and capital equipment evaluations
  • Work cross-functionally with operations, manufacturing, and engineering teams

What we need:
  • 5+ years in continuous processing manufacturing (composites/filament winding experience is a plus, not required)
  • Strong CAD skills (SolidWorks, GD&T per ANSI Y14.5)

  • Self-starter who manages multiple projects independently and sets own priorities
  • Bachelor's degree in mechanical, manufacturing, chemical, or composite engineering
  • Hands-on problem solver comfortable working on the production floor and in the lab

Nice to have:
  • Experience designing manufacturing tooling and equipment
  • Familiarity with thermoset resin systems (polyester, vinyl-ester, urethane)
