Coventry, United Kingdom Manufacturing Technology Centre Full time
We are looking for a Machining Process Engineer to join the High Temperature Research Centre Team based in Coventry.

As a Manufacturing Engineer based at the High Temperature Research Centre (HTRC) in Ansty, you will conduct research and improvement activities related to the design and manufacture of turbine components. The HTRC is a collaboration between the University of Birmingham and Rolls-Royce and is equipped with state-of-the-art equipment for investment casting, machining, and advanced metrology of single crystal components.

The Centre has three key aims:

Design & make of turbine components for engine development projects

Develop novel design and manufacturing techniques to enable future design styles and manufacturing technologies

Accelerate cost reduction and casting/machining yield improvement activities for Turbine components.

You will work within our co-located design and manufacturing engineering teams within the HTRC and in close collaboration with a wide range of researchers from the relevant academic fields.

Duties and Responsibilities

Manufacturing engineers are responsible for the method of manufacture that delivers component requirements and support both process engineering and project delivery tasks. Whilst an engineer may have a particular process or project focus, they will be able to support both functions. This role has a focus on Process Engineering task for the centres machining processes including (High Speed EDM – Drilling, CNC Milling and Wire EDM,)

Process engineers are primarily accountable for the equipment and process methods used within the HTRC, they drive best practice and continuous improvement into their process area whilst acting as a central point for knowledge management and communication across the HTRC and externally with suppliers, customers and partners. They also play a key role in supporting and liaising with the operational teams ensuring safe and reliable equipment and processes.

Project Engineers understand customer requirements and translate them through consultation into a method of manufacture managing the associated technical package. They create, manage, and deliver the project using planning, risk management and cost tools whilst effectively managing key stakeholder expectations. They also act to ensure validation and substantiation of the component and manage any arising non-conformance or quality concerns to ensure compliance to specifications and a safe method of manufacture.

Person Specification

We are looking for a candidate who will:

Be degree qualified or demonstrate equivalent technical capability based on practical knowledge and experience

Have sound understanding of manufacturing engineering and component engineering principles

Ideally demonstrate technical knowledge of turbine components and/or process knowledge associated with investment casting and/or machining of turbine components

Have experience with some of the following: High Speed EDM, Wire EDM, CNC Milling. Machining of metallic and ceramic materials.

Be equipped with a strong functional skill set (problem solving, programme management, change control, risk management and budgetary control)

Candidates with experience in some of the following will be strongly positioned to perform this role:

Experience working in research environments

Worked with customers to optimise the design of products (Design for Manufacture - DfM) to ensure an optimum manufacturing method can be generated.

Defined tooling, jigs and fixtures including experience with CAD software packages

Experience in CAM activities

Created and managed experiments to understand and develop manufacturing and component capability,

Created and managed methods of manufacture and technical packages allowing component manufacture and delivery.

Knowledge of inspection requirements and experience developing inspection capabilities

Resolved non-conformance to ensure an in-spec product is delivered to the customer.

Acted to continuously improve current and developed novel manufacturing capability for turbine component manufacture

Influenced the creation and deployment of future manufacturing capability roadmaps to ensure world class processes are operated.
