Manufacturing Engineer Jobs in Charlotte, NC

A Snapshot of Your Day

As a Manufacturing Engineer, you will contribute to the success of our business in a dynamic, fast-paced manufacturing environment focused on complex gas turbine combustion components. Your day may begin with a Gemba meeting where production priorities, development initiatives, and project needs are discussed.

You will work closely with operators on the shop floor to develop and refine robust manufacturing processes in support of new product introductions and ongoing production. Collaborating daily with Design Engineering and Service Engineering teams, you will help drive Design for Manufacturing (DFM) improvements for new and refurbished combustion hardware while supporting the manufacture of critical components used in advanced gas turbine technologies.

This position follows a Thursday - Monday (5 days x 8 hours) work schedule.

How You’ll Make an Impact

• Develop and implement product-specific manufacturing processes using sound engineering principles, technical judgment, and manufacturing best practices.
• Define and communicate manufacturing processes through technical work instructions, project briefings, operator training, and shop floor support.
• Provide technical guidance to operators, technicians, and manufacturing engineers on tooling, fixtures, and manufacturing equipment.
• Partner with Design Engineering and Service Engineering teams to support Design for Manufacturing (DFM) initiatives, process improvements, and new product introductions.
• Develop, optimize, and maintain CNC programs for lathe, milling, and mill-turn machining operations utilizing G-code and M-code programming.
