About The Position

Rolls-Royce is hiring a Manufacturing Engineer in Indianapolis, Indiana, on a full-time 9/80 work schedule. The role develops, implements, validates, maintains, and continually improves manufacturing processes, digital systems, and methods to meet requirements for safety, quality, cost, delivery rate, and lead time. The position includes new part introduction from wax tooling through casting development and the use of data to demonstrate and improve manufacturing capability. The Manufacturing Engineer ensures processes comply with Health, Safety & Environmental standards and support the Zero Harm program. The role helps ensure manufacturing processes achieve and sustain design intent, products conform to specifications, and safety-related issues are raised, investigated, and resolved. The engineer promotes a zero-defect culture, works across functions to reduce risk and improve Right First Time performance, and supports compliance with company, legislative, and technical requirements, including RRMS, SABRe, Export Control, and Intellectual Property requirements. The position applies PFMEAs, control plans, measurement system analysis, HPC and Production systems concepts, yield enhancement, and Lean Manufacturing practices as appropriate. It develops manufacturing and assembly processes suitable for statistical process control, monitors machinery and tools for efficiency, initiates corrective actions to address problems and deficiencies, and advises engineering on design concepts and specifications that make effective use of equipment and manufacturing techniques. Relocation is available. Applicants must be U.S. citizens.

Requirements

Associate degree in STEM or Engineering/Technology and at least 4 years of experience in a manufacturing environment; or bachelor's degree in STEM or Engineering/Technology and at least 2 years of manufacturing-environment experience; or a master's degree or Ph.D. in STEM or Engineering/Technology.
