Advanced Airfoil Components Jobs (NOW HIRING)

Our client, a leader in aerospace manufacturing, is seeking a Machining Engineer — Turbine Airfoil Grinding, Fixturing & ED to join their team. As a Machining Engineer — Turbine Airfoil Grinding, Fixturing & ED, you will be part of the Engineering Department supporting manufacturing and process development teams. The ideal candidate will have strong problem-solving skills, attention to detail, and a proactive mindset which will align successfully in the organization.

Job Title:Machining Engineer — Turbine Airfoil Grinding, Fixturing & ED

Location:Chandler, Arizona

Pay Range:$95,000 - $130,000

What's the Job?

• Define and own datum structure for turbine blades and vanes across the full process chain, ensuring consistent datum transfer from casting reference features through creep feed grinding, high-speed grinding, CNC milling, and EDM operations.
• Perform best-fit analysis of as-cast airfoil geometry (using CMM/optical scan data) against nominal CAD to determine optimal part orientation, stock allocation, and machining datums prior to first operation.
• Design and specify fixturing and tooling—including locating schemes, clamping strategies, and datum targets—that maintain GD&T intent and minimize tolerance stack-up across sequential operations.
• Analyze and control tolerance stack-up across multi-step process plans, identifying where datum shifts, fixture repeatability, or locating scheme changes introduce risk to final part conformance.
• Develop creep feed and high-speed grinding processes for airfoil platforms, root forms, and attachments, including wheel selection, dressing strategies, and coolant/feed optimization for superalloys.

What's Needed?

• Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, or a related field; equivalent hands-on process/fixture engineering experience considered.
• 5+ years of experience in precision machining process engineering, with expertise in datum strategy, datum transfer, and fixture design for tight-tolerance components.
• Strong command of GD&T (ASME Y14.5) and ability to translate drawing requirements into locating schemes, datum target placement, and tolerance stack-up analysis.
• Hands-on process development experience with creep feed grinding and high-speed grinding in aerospace or precision manufacturing environments.
• Proficiency in CNC milling process planning and CAM programming (e.g., Mastercam, NX, or similar). Experience with sinker EDM and wire EDM process development on superalloy or hard-metal components.

What's in it for me?

• Opportunity to work on advanced aerospace components with cutting-edge manufacturing processes.
• Collaborative environment supporting professional growth and skill development.
• Engagement with innovative projects that impact the aerospace industry globally.
• Supportive team culture emphasizing diversity, inclusion, and continuous improvement.
• Competitive salary aligned with your expertise and experience.

Upon completion of waiting period consultants are eligible for:
