About The Position

The Engineering Technician will work closely with Industrial Engineers to support industrialization projects, automation, prototyping, and equipment troubleshooting. This role involves supporting machine testing, data collection, and analysis, as well as assisting in the research, design, and development of manufacturing processes. The technician will also be involved in troubleshooting machines and robots, creating troubleshooting guides, and performing prototype machining from blueprints and specifications. Additionally, the role requires coordinating analysis and tests for tools, machinery, and equipment, as well as product/process analysis for cost reduction and quality improvement. The technician will assist in processing new parts, identifying necessary parts and tools, and performing tool design drawings using CAD applications. They will also be involved in the re-engineering process of existing parts and troubleshooting tools in manufacturing for improved quality and tool life. The position operates under general supervision with a degree of creativity and latitude. Responsibilities include complying with all Federal, Local, and State government regulations, LISI Aerospace procedures, and HSE Procedures, including ISO 14001 standards. The role requires attending all provided training, adhering to HSE procedures, policies, and plans, and conforming to reporting requirements and safe operating procedures. Employees must identify and report any known or suspected nonconformance to management immediately and continually seek opportunities to improve HSE performance. Waste elimination initiatives, such as EMS and recycling opportunities, are also part of the responsibilities.
