This is a senior technical role. You will act as the primary technical authority for your programs, working across hardware, software, materials, and operations to deliver production-ready parts for our most strategic aerospace and defense customers.

• Lead a cross-functional team of additive, post-processing, and quality engineers to develop part processes that maximize customer value.
• Evaluate early-stage opportunities for feasibility, working with senior technical staff to define the new product introduction path and with program leads to set clear expectations and keep technical development on track.
• Work with automation, machining, and finishing process owners as well as outside vendors to apply Design for Manufacturing (DFM) principles from the start of every program.
• Support junior engineers with technical troubleshooting on development builds, adjusting plans as issues surface while work in process moves through the factory.
• Support quality engineering in selection and execution of appropriate metrological solutions effectively meet customer needs from a qualification and production perspective.
• Support production programs by keeping parts moving efficiently through the factory.
• Lead root cause investigations for complex part defects and implement corrective and preventive actions (CAPA) using data analysis and iterative testing.
• Oversee the technical execution of First Article Inspections (FAI) and production launches for the A&D vertical.
• Oversee and execute change orders in response to customer design changes and internal KPI targets.
• Identify improvements to our product development process so that teams work efficiently and consistently meet customer needs.

• 8+ years of progressive, hands-on experience in product or applications development with a preference for candidates with experience in LPBF or similar additive technology.
• Bachelor's degree in Mechanical, Materials, Aerospace, Biomedical Engineering, or a related field.
• Expert-level proficiency in advanced 3D CAD software (e.g., Siemens NX, Creo, SolidWorks) Specialized skills with build-preparation tools (e.g., Magics, nTopology, Amphyon) preferred.
• Deep mastery of GD&T, advanced statistical process capability, tolerance stack-up analysis, and complex DFM/DfAM constraints.
• Outstanding leadership and communication skills, with a proven ability to influence technical roadmaps, align multidisciplinary stakeholders, and mentor engineering talent.
• Strong working knowledge of subtractive manufacturing operations (5-axis milling, turning, EDM) and their integration with additive workflows
