Job Requirements / Description
Job Description Summary
Develops and documents tool designs for both development and production hardware for aerospace products such as ignition exciters, high tension leads, igniter plugs and sensors. This would include all sub-assemblies involved with these parts.
Job Description
Roles and Responsibilities:
Designs tools and fixtures for production hardware and associated sub-components for aircraft applications.
Experience, understanding and application of Geometric Tolerancing Methodology (GD&T), geometry, trigonometry
Performs analytical calculations necessary for designing tooling and fixtures (tolerance stack-ups, fits, torque requirements, thermal expansion at various temperatures etc.)
Layout, measure, and mark metal stock, measure/examine, or test completed units to check for defects and ensure conformance to specs, using precision instruments, e.g. micrometers
Understanding of product design and processing to aid in definition of required tools / fixtures and materials to be used
Willingness to assist and be a training resource
Set up, adjust, and operate all the basic machining tools and many specialized and advanced variation tools to perform precision machining operations such as CNC machine, EDM, etc.
Apply metallurgy concepts such as determining the correct hardness and alloy requirements
Ability to lead and influence various technical personnel to find root cause of equipment failures and then follow-up with improvements
Installation of repaired or new parts into equipment, mount attachments or tools onto production equipment, install mechanical components in production equipment
Assist in the assembly of experimental hardware to help optimize the manufacturing process.
Ensures design will conform to application stresses
Work with Manufacturing, Production and NPD Manufacturing Engineering and Design Engineering across sites to assure that design producibility is achieved in a production environment
Assist in the assembly of experimental hardware to help optimize the manufacturing process
Must be familiar with a variety of manufacturing processes – welding, brazing, assembly, machining, etc.
Ability to develop tooling designs from piece parts, assembly prints and solid models
Manage tool request workflows and tooling databases.
Procure necessary material to execute tooling builds
Support and/or participate in 5S practices and Lean activities
Self-motivated and the ability to work independently or in a group setting
Design solutions for EHS related actions
Ability to assist other areas when necessary
Qualifications:
Associate’s Degree or High School Diploma / GED from an accredited school or institution
Desired Characteristics:
5 years demonstrated experience in tool design
Proficient Geometric tolerancing
Proficient written and verbal communication skills
Proficient CNC programming skills
Basic understanding of heat-treating processes
Humble: respectful, receptive, agile, eager to learn?
Transparent: shares critical information, speaks with candor, contributes constructively?
Focused: quick learner, strategically prioritizes work, committed ?
Leadership ability: strong communicator, decision-maker, collaborative?
Problem solver: analytical-minded, challenges existing processes, critical thinker
This role requires access to U.S. export-controlled information. If applicable, final offers will be contingent on ability to obtain authorization for access to U.S. export-controlled information from the U.S. Government.
