What are the responsibilities and job description for the MRB Engineer position at HANWHA AEROSPACE USA LLC?
MRB Engineer – Exempt
Hanwha Aerospace USA has long been recognized as a leader in the development and supply of flight critical Aerospace/Defense components and assemblies. Operating out of four state-of-the-art facilities located in Connecticut, Hanwha Aerospace USA offers growth and career development opportunities to enrich your talents.
The MRB Process Engineer evaluates systemic causes of non-conformance with regard to defects arising during the manufacturing process and as compared to the product definition requirements as defined by the part print.
The Engineer has oversight of MRB engineers in the clinic with coaching aimed specifically at the necessary steps, tools, and processes to “return to print” part families with like defect types.
The engineer will determine classes of QN repair disposition (light, medium, and heavy), and delegate standard repairs to the clinic staff with necessary guidance. The “hands-on” aspect of the role will be providing original content with respect to repair development activities that demands a higher level of process knowledge. Many of these repairs will involve “additive” processes such as plating, welding, coating along with complimentary NDT and heat treatments.
The Engineer will develop where possible in house or quick-turn supply capability to execute standard repairs that could include the following:
• Latent defect weld repair, local H/T, and NDT
• Machine prep, plasma spray, post-machine, inspect
• Machine prep, nickel flash plate, post-machine, inspect
• Blend, NDT, local shot peen
• Thread Repair, followed by insert replacement
