Manufacturing Engineer - Aerospace

Up to £55,000

Gloucester

Someone hands you a drawing. You decide how it actually gets made, and how it gets made right.

Our client is a fast-growing advanced composites manufacturer supplying aerospace, automotive, defence and space. As their Composites Manufacturing Engineer, you'll take parts and tooling from design through to the shop floor, making sure the risks are understood and the process is written down properly.

You'll:

Write step-by-step build instructions covering tooling, equipment, materials, cure cycles and safety

Create routings and bills of material

Run PFMEAs and set up inspection plans

Work with tooling designers on concepts

Support bids with methodology and costings

Give procurement technical guidance

Use production data to make processes faster and better

You'll need:

Practical composites manufacturing experience, and a solid understanding of how the materials behave

Working knowledge of AS9100 in an aerospace setting

CAD skills, ideally SolidWorks

Lean thinking and a problem-solving streak

AFP experience, a composites or manufacturing engineering degree, or Six Sigma are all a bonus.

This is a chance to shape how a scaling business builds, not follow someone else's manual.
