Jobs at Kaney Aerospace, Inc.

Design and deliver fractional-horsepower motors and motor-drive electronics for aerospace actuators. Develop motor models, mixed-signal schematics, real-time firmware, and control algorithms. Lead testing, HIL, qualification, and ensure compliance with aerospace standards (DO-160, DO-254, ARP4754). Support integration, safety analyses, and production readiness.

Design and develop high-reliability mixed-signal electronic hardware for aerospace electromechanical actuation systems. Responsibilities include analog/digital schematics, PCB layout and release, component selection, circuit analysis, EMC/environmental compliance (DO-160/DO-254), verification and validation (bench, environmental, HIL), troubleshooting, certification support, and maintaining technical documentation.

Manage assigned Aerospace & Defense accounts to grow sales of fiber optic gyro products through relationship building, prospecting, proposal writing, contract management, cross-functional collaboration, forecasting, and frequent travel. Develop sales plans, support technical/customer discussions, train representatives, and maintain CRM records to meet tactical and strategic quotas.

Lead development and maintenance of quality systems and processes to ensure compliance with company, customer, and regulatory requirements. Manage quality support for production and development programs, participate in design and reliability reviews, analyze failures, prepare reports, and advise on corrective actions. Compile and report KPIs to senior management and interface with cross-functional teams and suppliers.

Serve as primary quality contact for assigned programs/customers, investigate and resolve customer quality concerns, develop and track corrective actions, perform audits, manage supplier quality, prepare PPAP/MSA documentation, and support continuous improvement and compliance to quality standards.

Support and improve manufacturing processes for existing and new products using lean principles. Develop methods, tooling, process documentation, time standards, cost estimates, and capital justifications. Maintain routings and work orders, mentor shop-floor personnel, coordinate with vendors and management, and support Safety, Quality, Cost, and Delivery continuous improvement.

Lead mechanical design, analysis, and testing of electromechanical actuators. Perform trade studies, FEA and hand calculations, CAD modeling, tolerance analyses, testing, root-cause investigations, and IPT leadership while mentoring junior engineers and ensuring manufacturability, reliability, and compliance.

Lead design and development of precision ball screw assemblies for aerospace and industrial applications. Own architecture, materials, manufacturing methods, FEA/CAE analysis, failure analysis, testing strategy, and regulatory compliance. Mentor engineers, interface with customers, and drive innovation to meet life, reliability, and performance targets.

Lead design, analysis, and validation of precision ball screw assemblies for aerospace and industrial applications. Own geometry, materials, preload, lubrication, FEA/CAE, failure analysis, testing, and manufacturability. Mentor engineers, drive innovation, ensure AS9100 and export-control compliance, and work with customers and manufacturing to meet life, reliability, and performance targets.

Set up, program, and operate cylindrical, centerless, thread, and surface grinders to produce high-precision ball screw components. Develop and optimize grinding processes, select wheels and dressing parameters, compensate for heat-treat and prior machining effects, perform dimensional and surface inspections, troubleshoot defects, document setups, and mentor junior machinists while ensuring quality and safety.

Perform precision dimensional inspections and in-machine measurements of aerospace ball screws and components, develop inspection and FAI documentation, validate machining processes and Cp/Cpk, lead root-cause analysis and corrective actions, ensure AS9100/AS9102 compliance, and support supplier and manufacturing quality activities.
