Engineering Technician - MRB Technician

Chromalloy•Oldsmar, FL

About The Position

Responsible for performing MRB (Material Review Board) evaluations and data analysis functions to support aerospace and industrial gas turbine manufacturing and engineering operations. The MRB function involves technical review and disposition of non-conforming products, requiring collaboration with cross-functional teams and application of advanced engineering judgement. The data analyst portion focuses on analyzing scrap and rework data, along with Statistical Process Control (SPC) system data, to compile trends, identify areas for improvement, and recommend actionable solutions. The position integrates technical expertise, problem-solving methodologies, and fosters a culture of innovation to improve Chromalloy’s operational performance. Critical Success Factors Requires strong analytical skills and knowledge of operational procedures and tools obtained through technical education or specialty work experience. Proven ability to collaborate with technical team members and other functions within a matrix organizational structure. Experience in applying best practices and data-driven methodologies to resolve non-routine problems. Ability to interpret complex data sets and communicate findings effectively. Familiarity with Continuous Improvement (CI) tools and techniques to enhance operational performance. Typically, minimum of 3–5 years’ experience in aerospace or industrial gas turbine manufacturing, repair, or engineering technician roles, or equivalent experience with progressively increasing responsibility. Typical Education Associate's degree preferred but High School Degree with Aerospace working background would be acceptable.
