Senior Casting Engineer
About The Position
This position is 100% onsite; no remote or hybrid option is available at this time. More Specific Duties Include: SPECIFIC DUTIES: Conduct design and analysis assignments for complex products, evaluate engineering problems and develop significant criteria to support design concepts and feasibility in the casting area. Program and integrate robots for the new shell line in the casting area to automate tasks such as mold handling, coating, drying, dewaxing and metal pouring. Develop new SLA parts numbers to replace wax patterns, enhancing casting yield and reducing high tooling and labor costs. Assist in developing general engineering procedures and specifications. Provide guidance to Engineering and Production personnel on test requirements, procedures and product specifications. Aid in result evaluation. Lead improvements in the shell process to reduce cycle time, waste and casting defects, ultimately lowering the scrap rate. Design new molds with optimized drainage paths to prevent and minimize internal casting defects. Prepare layouts and perform calculations related to castings design and analysis. Assist in developing engineering computer programs and evaluating their output in relation to design assignments. Coordinate engineering projects, including cost and schedule estimation, ensuring designs meet casting specifications. Serves as a liaison with other relevant departments.
