Process Engineer - Machining
General Motors, Spring Hill, TN, United States
The Manufacturing Engineer- Machining will be engaged, with occasional guidance, in developing manufacturing and machining processes, equipment/tooling alternatives, sequence, and flow of operations for the effective utilization of personnel, material, machines, and facilities necessary to produce machined components. Work will be performed in an engine component machining plant, requiring creativity, initiative, and a high-level of independent judgement. The ability to work in a dynamic, fast-paced manufacturing environment is critical for success in this role.
The Role:
Manufacturing engineer engaged in developing manufacturing and machining processes, equipment/tooling alternatives, sequence, and flow of operations for the effective utilization of personnel, material, machines, and facilities necessary to produce components. Work is performed in an engine component machining plant environment where a considerable amount of creativity and initiative is exercised, as well as a high level of independent judgment. You will be part of a team supporting daily production needs.
What You'll Do:
Ensure that manufacturing processes are effectively maintained
Process definition for machining and sub-assembly processes
Support the day-to-day production needs on the production floor by maintaining solid relationships with the Production and Maintenance teams
Sequencing of operations
Human factors – ergonomic consideration
Efficient material flow
Providing technical direction to and oversight of external vendor sources and internal maintenance and operations teams, to solve urgent and complex problems by identifying and evaluating alternatives and solutions
Supporting improvements through TIP (Throughput Improvement Process), ensuring high-yield and productivity
Supporting Business Plan Deployment (BPD) teams and coordinating engineering activities to achieve Business Plan objectives
Analyzing production results and data for root cause analysis
Continuous improvement of equipment, tooling, and gaging
Development and testing of advanced process technology
Qualifications:
Technical knowledge and ability in process engineering disciplines
Critical thinking and an analytical mindset
Demonstrate excellent level of analytical ability, communication and interpersonal skills required to build relationships with team members and customers to solve problems and resolve issues
Demonstrated knowledge of statistical methods as applied to process control
Demonstrated knowledge of quality Systems and gauging methods
Demonstrated knowledge of PFMEAs and control plans
Experience with AutoCAD and part and tooling prints
Ability to work flexible hours, at times overtime, off-shift support, as well as on-call support
Preferred Qualifications:
Experience with engine component machining processes including:
CNC machining centers and programming
Crankshaft precision grinding and polishing processes
Cylinder Head machining processes
Cylinder Block honing processes
Leak testing processes and instrumentation
In-line gaging processes
Precision cutting tools, i.e., PCD, carbide, CBN, etc. and required set-ups
