Public Trust clearance required
Astrion is seeking a highly skilled Manufacturing Process Planner Estimator to support the Marshall Engineering Technicians and Trades Support (METTS) III contract at NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center (MSFC) located on Redstone Arsenal in Huntsville, Alabama.
The METTS III contract provides comprehensive engineering technician and trade support services, along with professional and management oversight of technical staff in direct support of NASA programs and missions.
This position requires a high level of technical expertise, ingenuity, and independent judgment. Assignments frequently involve non-routine, complex, or first-of-a-kind tasks, including the development of manufacturing plans, cost estimates, and process documentation for prototype and production hardware.
REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS / SKILLS:
  • Formal training in machine shop practices and basic computer skills acquired through vocational, technical, or military service school training
  • Minimum of 10 years of machine shop experience
  • Comprehensive knowledge of blueprint reading, machining processes, and fabrication methods

Work Environment
  • Environmentally controlled shop (heated and cooled)
  • Exposure to machinery noise
  • Laboratory, test environments, test stands, and possible confined spaces
  • Occasional outdoor work may be required

Travel Requirements (%): up to 10%
Physical Requirements
  • Ability to bend, stoop, and lift occasionally, with or without reasonable accommodation
  • Ability to stand or sit for extended periods as required by job tasks

Medical Requirements
All positions supporting the METTS III contract are contingent upon successful completion of NASA medical screenings at the start of employment and annually thereafter. Screening requirements are determined based on the Safety, Health, and Environmental Job Assessment Questionnaire.
Other Essential Functions
  • Strong communication skills
  • Ability to work independently and collaboratively within multidisciplinary teams

RESPONSIBILITIES:
The Manufacturing Process Planner Estimator works with minimal supervision and reports to a Manager. Responsibilities include, but are not limited to:
  • Plan, coordinate, and document manufacturing processes for support and customer organizations
  • Develop detailed process plans, estimates, pricing, and schedules for complex, non-routine parts and equipment
  • Interpret and translate work orders, engineering drawings, blueprints, sketches, specifications, and sample parts that may lack complete dimensions, tolerances, or fit and finish details
  • Plan sequences of operations requiring original or innovative setups, attachments, tooling, and machining techniques
  • Estimate manpower, materials, tooling, and machine requirements based on current shop capabilities
  • Outline machining processes involving unusual or compound angles and complex geometries
  • Apply advanced shop mathematics, including geometric and trigonometric formulas, to compute compound angles, angular indexing, hole patterns, pitch lead, and pitch diameters
  • Collaborate closely with designers, engineers, and manufacturing personnel during work order development and process preparation
  • Recommend and implement methods and procedures that improve efficiency, reduce costs, enhance dimensional accuracy, and optimize machine time
  • Perform fabrication or assembly labor when required to support production activities
