Manufacturing Engineer - Composite Machining

at  RollsRoyce

WHO WE’RE LOOKING FOR:

At Rolls-Royce we put safety first, do the right thing, keep it simple and make a difference. These principles form the behaviours that guide us and are an essential component of our assessment process. They are the fundamental qualities that we seek for all roles and for this role we are looking for someone with:

• An engineering or other relevant discipline degree/HND/HNC and previous experience working in a manufacturing engineering role.
• Hands-on practical experience with CNC machines in an operational environment.
• Experience in CAD modelling and CAM programming for 5 axis CNC machines including on machine probing preferred (training available).
• Understanding of technology readiness levels (TRL) (or similar processes such as MCRL) and driving processes to maturity.
• Understanding of the manufacturing engineering toolset to improve processes in our route to zero defects.

We are an equal opportunities employer. We’re committed to developing a diverse workforce and an inclusive working environment. We believe that people from different backgrounds and cultures give us different perspectives which are crucial to innovation and problem solving. We believe the more diverse perspectives we have, the more successful we’ll be. By building a culture of caring and belonging, we give everyone who works here the opportunity to realise their full potential.
We welcome applications from people with a refugee background.

WHAT YOU WILL BE DOING

In this exciting role, you will look after:

• Delivery of machining programmes and processes for a range of composite components from fan blades to structures, and providing a capable method to the operation team in the facility.
• Ensuring the machining techniques meet our customer’s requirements for Safety, Quality, Cost, Delivery and Lead time.
• Development of Technical Packages (Equipment Specification, TI’s, PFMEAs, Tooling, Equipment and HSE documentation) to define the manufacturing process and control it effectively.
• Identification of opportunities for new or improved process using statistical process control (Ppk and Cpk) to meet current or future requirements whilst sharing best practice across the community.
• Driving the composite machining process to Zero Defects through cost and quality waterfalls, owning the technology plan and strategy as we head toward industrialising the UltraFan system.
