Jobs at Doncasters

Lead shift-level manufacturing operations for precision aerospace cast components. Drive productivity, OTIF delivery, process optimization, tooling and equipment utilization, capital projects, and cross-functional collaboration with maintenance, engineering, and quality.

Operate vacuum furnaces and related equipment to melt and prepare metal charges for precision casting. Load/unload furnaces using forklifts/cranes, prepare launders and molds, assist with heat tapping, maintain records, follow safety and quality procedures, and support efficient furnace turnaround.

Lead lean transformation in a precision manufacturing plant: drive Kaizen and Hoshin planning, run TPM and root-cause analysis, perform time-studies, build visual management, manage improvement projects, train staff on 5S and lean, and deliver measurable KPI improvements (Productivity, OEE, Rework).

Operate vacuum furnaces to melt metals, prepare and verify materials, load heat charges using forklifts/cranes, prepare launders and molds, assist with heat tapping, maintain records, ensure safety and efficient furnace turnaround.

Supervise manufacturing operations to produce quality aerospace cast components. Ensure process control, safety, OTIF delivery, productivity, and continuous improvement. Train and develop staff, manage performance, use ERP and planning systems, and coordinate with maintenance, engineering, and quality teams.

Perform fluorescent penetrant inspections (FPI Level II) on investment castings and wax patterns to specified procedures. Read/interpret blueprints, use gauging/measuring tools, ensure quality and defect detection, and meet production goals on night shift.

Develop and optimize ceramic materials, molds and cores for investment casting in aerospace. Collaborate with cross-functional teams to improve manufacturability and processes, perform testing and evaluation for quality compliance, and implement new materials and technologies to drive continuous improvement.

Ensure manufactured products meet quality standards by generating certification packs, managing quality issues, performing root cause analysis and corrective actions, auditing processes, maintaining control plans, monitoring KPIs (scrap, rework, PPM), training production staff, and submitting First Article Inspection and process approvals.

Lead day-to-day manufacturing operations for a designated product mix, ensuring safety, quality, process control, staffing, training, performance management, and continuous improvement using Lean methods to meet production schedules.

No responsibilities or duties were provided in the job description.

Operate and maintain production equipment in an aerospace casting facility, identify and rectify machine faults, use handheld tools and machinery, follow safety and quality processes, and participate in on-the-job training and continuous development within a production team.

Operate sandblast equipment to clean metal parts per instructions and customer specs. Load/unload machines, remove debris, maintain equipment, inspect parts for quality, record job progress in tracking system, and safely transfer parts using racks or carts.

Perform hands-on assembly, inspection, mounting and cleaning of wax molds and metal dies per Investment Casting Standards. Learn equipment set-up, follow operating procedures, interpret work results, and meet quality and timeliness targets while working in a production team.

Work as a Vacuum Ingot Processor performing hands-on metal processing tasks using power tools (drills, saws). Role focuses on manual fabrication/processing of ingots in a team-oriented manufacturing environment, emphasizing safety, quality, and adherence to company values.

Lead plant-level process and continuous-improvement projects to boost productivity and implement sustainable manufacturing solutions. Serve as Manufacturing, Process, and Continuous Improvement Engineer, working cross-functionally to solve production problems, deploy automation and PLC controls, manage capital projects, and apply Lean/Six Sigma methods in a precision aerospace casting facility.

Support day-to-day HR operations including recruitment, onboarding, employee engagement, payroll and benefits administration, compliance, and employee records. Serve as a primary contact for employees and ensure smooth HR processes and documentation within a manufacturing site.

Early-career Product Engineer in a 2-year graduate development program supporting aerospace investment casting. Responsibilities include process monitoring, part-specific production maintenance, tooling support, yield improvement, new part development, dimensional evaluation (Layout/CMM/Gauge/BlueLight), statistical analysis, and root-cause problem solving, with cross-functional rotations and mentor support.

Designs, builds, repairs, and alters tools, dies, gauges, and fixtures to close tolerances. Performs precision machining, interprets blueprints, troubleshoots tooling issues, and conducts manual precision measurements to maintain production quality.

Lead product development and introduce new investment-cast superalloy components from quote to production. Define metallurgical and manufacturing processes, interpret complex engineering drawings, support exotic metal fabrications, manage customer deliverables, and drive continuous improvement while ensuring safety and quality.
