This position requires regular on-site interaction at the Dallas Airfoil Repair Operations facility.

An RSA engineer is responsible for reviewing and approving a range of manufacturing processes utilized in the repair of aftermarket hardware, including joining, coatings, chemical processes, machining/finishing, and surface enhancement. This role, located in the Dallas, TX area, will focus primarily on approval of coatings (e.g. plasma spray and HVOF, EB-PVD, CatArc, and diffusion) and related processing (e.g. cleaning, grit blasting, chemical and waterjet stripping) and will support a wide range of suppliers, internal and external, domestic and international, commercial and military.

• Interface with appropriate stakeholders (e.g. supplier engineers, Aftermarket Sustainment Engineering, CIPT, Aftermarket Operations, Quality, and Procurement teams), as needed, to complete initial approvals, changes and processing variations.
• Review detailed process-specific operation sheets, monitor approved processes, review non-destructive evaluations of repaired hardware, review destructive metallurgical testing and evaluations of engine hardware, pilot testing of chemical processes, and analyze material property data.
• Analysis of data/results substantiating qualification of processes, preparation of documentation and reports, and creation/enhancement of standard work.
• Address various material and processing needs, and evaluation of gas turbine engine hardware and materials.
• Conduct periodic review of sources for continued adherence to fixed RSA processes and requirements of repair technical data.

Qualifications You Must Have:

• Bachelor of Science in Engineering or a similar technical field and 8 years of experience in design, manufacturing and/or materials engineering associated with coatings (overlay or  diffusion) and associated processing (e.g. chemical processing (chemical strip and plating), waterjet, machining/finishing, and/or surface enhancement) or An Advanced Degree in a related field and minimum 5 years experience.

Qualifications We Prefer:

• A Master’s of Science in Materials Engineering is preferred.
• Prior aftermarket experience.
• Knowledge of Pratt & Whitney design and quality systems is desired.
