Job Description Summary

Are you passionate about innovation? Are you excited at the opportunity to electrify and decarbonize the world?

We operate with a founder’s mindset. We deliver innovation with passion, speed, and courage. We continuously challenge our thinking and are empowered to dream big and take smart risks.

What impact you’ll make

As a member of the Process Industrialization team, you will help define, develop, and industrialize manufacturing processes using a team-based approach. This role will primarily focus on broach process development, including defining & testing new processes, improving existing processes, and supporting successful transfer into production.

Job Description

What You'll Do:

You'll be the technical lead for broach process development — defining, validating, optimizing, and handing off processes that meet the precision and reliability demands of HDGT production.

  • Lead end-to-end broach process development, including process definition, parameter optimization, tool selection, and industrialization for turbine and compressor wheel applications

  • Validate process readiness by interpreting engineering drawings, fixture stack-ups, cut charts, and broach cutter data

  • Drive continuous improvement in tool life, repeatability, and part quality through systematic process and tooling optimization

  • Partner with production teams to troubleshoot equipment and process issues, applying lean manufacturing and kaizen principles to build lasting solutions

  • Standardize and document manufacturing methods, process requirements, and best practices to enable consistent, scalable production

  • Support new product introduction by developing processes alongside engineering teams and ensuring a clean handoff to manufacturing

What You Bring:

We're looking for someone who has done this work — in turbine, compressor, or aerospace environments — and is ready to own it independently.

Required:

  • Bachelor's degree with 4+ years of experience in production process and equipment development OR a High School Diploma/GED with 8+ years of experience in production process and equipment development

  • Hands-on experience developing and optimizing CNC broach processes in a production environment

  • Demonstrated ability to interpret technical documentation including drawings, cut charts, and fixture stack-ups

  • Ability to work onsite in Greenville, SC, with schedule flexibility when project timelines require it

Preferred:

  • Bachelor's of Master's degree in Engineering or Machine Tool Technology

  • Experience broaching turbine or compressor wheels in the power generation or aerospace industries

  • Familiarity with Hoffmann RASMX 8-axis broaching machines

  • Experience machining high-temperature superalloys common in HDGT or aerospace manufacturing

  • Lean/Six Sigma certification or equivalent continuous improvement background
