About the Role
The Senior Process Engineer will lead the development, optimization, and scale-up of boule manufacturing processes for high-value specialty glass product lines. This role focuses on solving complex process challenges, including defect mechanisms and process variability, and requires a blend of hands-on process knowledge, structured problem-solving, and cross-functional leadership to achieve business impact.
Responsibilities
- Lead development and implementation of boule forming and thermal processes, including custom or novel approaches to address product- and defect-specific challenges.
- Drive structured root cause investigations into complex or previously unknown defect modes, including selection of appropriate characterization methods and identification of underlying failure mechanisms.
- Develop and implement process solutions that significantly reduce defect rates, improve yield, and enhance product quality for high-value product lines.
- Lead cross-functional teams (materials science, modeling, manufacturing, equipment engineering) to evaluate technical approaches, build alignment, and drive execution.
- Support process scale-up and equipment transitions, including capacity increases and changes in product size or format.
- Evaluate new processing approaches (e.g., deformation techniques, pressure-based processing, or containment design concepts) and quantify technical and economic feasibility.
- Develop yield models, cost analyses, and process tracking tools to support data-driven decision making and quantify business impact.
- Provide advanced troubleshooting support in a high-value, quality-driven manufacturing environment, balancing technical performance with operational constraints.
Requirements
- Bachelor’s degree in Engineering (Mechanical, Materials, Chemical, or related field)
- 8–12 years of experience in specialty glass, advanced materials, or comparable high-value manufacturing environments
- Demonstrated experience with development of custom or product-specific manufacturing processes
- Demonstrated experience leading root cause investigations for complex or unknown defect modes
- Demonstrated experience supporting manufacturing scale-up, equipment changes, or process transitions
- Strong analytical capability and experience applying structured problem-solving methodologies
- Proven ability to work effectively across functions and influence technical decisions
- US Citizenship required
