Zusammenfassung

Beehive Industries is seeking a Senior Additive Manufacturing Engineer to lead process development for metal AM parts used in aerospace and defense. You’ll drive build prep, printing, post‑processing, heat treatment, surface finishing, and non‑destructive testing to ensure high quality additively manufactured components.

You will work with design engineers on DFAM and CAD-to-simulation workflow, promote knowledge transfer, and help qualify suppliers while ensuring compliance with AS9100/ISO9000

Qualifikationen

• Bachelor’s degree in Materials or Mechanical Engineering with typically a minimum of 5 years of related experience, or a master’s with 3 years of experience.
• Demonstrated expertise in additive manufacturing process development with focus on L‑PBF.
• Hands‑on operation of additive manufacturing L‑PBF machines, process parameter development and direct experience building parts on AM machines such as the EOS M400 and similar.
• Process knowledge for metal AM to make successful builds in Nickel, Aluminum, and Titanium alloys.
• Proficient in using software focused on design for AM, build‑file preparation, process simulation, and in‑process monitoring.
• Experience working in an AS9100 and ISO9000 environment.
• Knowledge of AM and aerospace industry standards, including ASTM, ISO, AMS, SAE, etc
• Knowledge of geometric dimensioning and tolerancing (GD&T)
• Ability to obtain and maintain a U.S. government‑issued security clearance is required; U.S. citizenship is required

Aufgaben

• Act as a subject matter expert (SME) on process development for metal AM technologies, industry best practices, and optimal process solutions to support our AM requirements
• Develop and optimize the entire suite of AM processes for metal printer recipes, post‑machining, heat treatments, surface finishes, and NDT
• Enjoy working in a fast‑paced environment and be comfortable working through complex and collaborative problem‑solving
• Work with design engineers on DFAM for the adoption and transition of printing modalities
• Support and drive learning from CAD data through simulation, design compensation, optimization, support generation, build prep, and production guidelines and documentation
• Provide feedback to design engineers and production floor to continuously improve the AM part production process
• Perform analysis, characterization, simulation, testing, and verification of AM hardware as well as AM material properties and analyze results from downstream fabrication and testing operations to inform process improvements
• Generate and release additive process specifications to control product quality and establish build qualification and product acceptance criteria
• Work closely with stakeholders in achieving and maintaining aerospace and defense driven AM process and facility qualifications and certifications
• Advise on materials, machines and process parameters to build parts that meet specifications
• Actively and closely work with quality engineers to identify and qualify vendors and suppliers for materials and post‑process services
• Travel approximately 10% across Beehive’s manufacturing sites to manage the technology development programs
