Set up and operate lathes, mill/drill and surface grinders using prints/O.I.S.; perform independent machine setup, make program corrections, use precision measuring instruments, maintain tooling and coolant, troubleshoot machine issues, and report damage to ensure parts meet specifications.

Lead development and implementation of NDE/NDT inspection processes for cast and forged compressor components, partner with suppliers and supply chain to improve inspection methods, review and update NDE documentation and drawings, evaluate supplier results, accept/reject nonconforming parts, and drive corrective actions across manufacturing sites.

Set up, operate, and maintain CNC machine tools (lathes, mills, VTLs); load/unload parts; download and edit CNC programs; perform in-process and final inspections using precision measuring tools; change tooling and adjust processes to maintain quality; read engineering drawings and follow complex instructions.

Set up, operate, and maintain CNC machine tools (lathes, mills, VTLs); download and edit programs; load/unload parts; inspect in-process and finished parts using precision measuring tools; monitor and change cutting tools; interpret engineering drawings and routings; maintain a clean work area and follow complex instructions.

Support software development, data analysis, and AI/ML initiatives across the SDLC. Build scalable applications, contribute to AI/ML use cases, automate processes, generate data insights, deliver clean code, and collaborate with cross-functional teams under mentorship.

Support gas compressor aftermarket business by organizing and analyzing historical CRM restage proposal data, analyzing lead-generator output, data-mining customer databases, developing top-customer cut sheets, and organizing compressor curves for rapid restage evaluation.

Manage purchased material requirements and MRP/BAAN planning to ensure on-time availability. Coordinate with buyers, suppliers, and production on capacity, shortages, and schedule changes. Maintain planning data, support NPI and change implementation, handle drop-ship logistics, and participate in cost/lead-time/inventory reduction and continuous improvement projects.

Design turbo machinery mechanical systems including P&IDs, specify and size valves, coolers, motors, and piping, update parts and BOMs, support production and field commissioning, coordinate with suppliers and cross-functional teams, and participate in HAZOP and customer review meetings. Requires basic fluids/thermodynamics knowledge and strong communication and time-management skills.

Design and document tooling: interpret orders, develop tooling concepts, create manufacturing drawings in Creo, perform basic FEA with Ansys Workbench, apply GD&T, support production and fabrication, perform Make-Buy analysis, research materials, and troubleshoot tooling issues.

Lead design, development, and optimization of automated testing frameworks for frontend and backend systems. Create and execute functional, performance, scalability, and security tests; develop AI/ML testing strategies; integrate automation into CI/CD; mentor test engineers; conduct code reviews, technical workshops, and drive quality improvements across microservices and cloud-native systems.

Set up and operate CNC and other machine tools to produce parts to print and tolerance. Independently perform setups, adjust machines, use precision measuring instruments, interpret blueprints and GD&T, sharpen/preset tools, perform basic maintenance, deburr parts, and report machine issues. Must work any shift and overtime as needed.

Layout, fabricate, assemble and mock-up complex sheet metal and exotic-metal parts for turbine engines. Operate and program CNC press brakes, waterjets, lasers and other forming equipment. Support engineering, tooling, and test departments; perform brazing, welding, heat-treat, and nondestructive inspection tasks while maintaining critical tolerances and advanced shop math calculations.

Lead a centralized GSC Services organization to standardize supply chain processes, govern master data and systems, drive supplier performance and compliance, enable analytics and ERP/Coupa adoption, manage cross-functional projects, and develop a high-performing team to support global supply chain operations.
