Description

Proven to Perform. From the edges of space to the bottoms of ocean, our materials are proven to perform -- and so is our team. We're hiring high performers as proven as our products. Join us. ATI is seeking to hire a Senior Process Engineer to support our Specialty Materials business unit. This position will be based in Monroe, NC. As a Senior Process Engineer you will be responsible for providing post-melt technical support to Monroe, NC and Richburg, SC manufacturing facilities. This will include all hot rolling, forging, and similar post-melt processes. Radial Forging experience is strongly preferred for this role. Duties and Responsibilities * Internal/external technical contact for thermo-mechanical processing operations primarily focused on GFM radial forging. * Provide technical support to Operations for processing material when obstacles in production arise. * Provide technical support for outside conversion operations and internal Conversion Services as required. * Develop and maintain operational and metallurgical expertise in thermo-mechanical processing of Ni/Fe/Co-base, titanium, and specialty steel alloys through experimentation, technical literature review, best practice exchanges across ATI, and attending technical conferences. * Provide backup support for Monroe, NC open-die press forging operations. * Product line responsibility for Nickel/Specialty Steel alloy reroll billet. Track critical to quality process metrics and identify opportunities to improve yield, cycle time, and cost. * Maintenance and standardization of hot working operating and mill instructions. * Provide technical support in resolving process-related non-conformances and customer complaints. * Collaborate with Operations and Maintenance personnel to develop improvements to manufacturing processes and standards that enhance safety in the workplace, equipment performance and product quality. * Plan, execute and manage product/process continuous improvement programs. Apply statistical data analysis and thermal/deformation modeling tools as required to support initiatives. * Lead and participate in team-based, cross-functional continuous improvement activities including risk assessments, problem solving reports, cause/effect diagrams, process audits, and standard work. * Communicate results to management, colleagues, and customers in the form of written reports and oral presentations. * Support Product Engineering and R&D in the development, evaluation and standardization of new products and processes. * Create and implement items, recipes, mill instructions and other quality system documents. * Provide technical support during customer audits and inquiries.
