About Vulcan Elements
Vulcan Elements is manufacturing American rare-earth permanent magnets for a secure, resilient future. With a focus on national security and economic resiliency, we serve critical industries such as defense, aerospace, and automotive powering a high-technology future. Vulcan Elements is building a team of ambitious professionals committed to Mission Focus, Technical Excellence, and Transparency.
The Role
As a Process Engineer, you will contribute to the full lifecycle of a massive 1 million square foot manufacturing facility expansion—from design and equipment specification through installation, commissioning, production startup, and scale-up to full capacity. You will be responsible for a process step, translating pilot-line processes into full-scale, stable, and repeatable production systems. This is a high-impact, high-ownership role requiring deep technical expertise and leadership.
Core Expectations & Responsibilities
Process Development & Qualification: Run engineering trials to determine optimal equipment recipes and operating windows. Own the parameter definition required to transition processes from development to stable, high-volume production.
Process Optimization: Identify the best ways to operate manufacturing equipment to maximize yield, improve throughput, and minimize scrap. Monitor OEE results and station cycle times to drive continuous improvement.
Quality & Capability Assurance: Lead Gage R&R studies and capability studies (Cpk analysis) to ensure equipment and measurement systems are capable of meeting tight product specifications.
Risk Management: Lead and own the PFMEA (Process Failure Mode and Effects Analysis) for your designated process steps to proactively identify and mitigate product and process risks.
Hands-on Startup Support: Provide hands-on support during production startup, helping operators stabilize processes and eliminating early bottlenecks.
Product & Process Review: Dedicate time to reviewing physical product quality at the station level, mapping defects back to root causes in the machinery or process settings.
EHS & Quality Compliance: Ensure compliance with safety, environmental, and quality standards across all process activities.
Travel: This position will require some interaction and travel to support equipment development reviews and Factory Acceptance Tests (FATs) as needed (estimated at <5% travel).
You will also be responsible for developing, reviewing, or managing the following deliverables:
Risk & Safety: Risk Assessments, Ergonomic Assessments, and PFMEA.
Process Design: Process Flow Charts, Bill of Process (BOP), Station Cycle Times, Process Sheets, and Process Checklists.
Quality & Control: Quality Control Plans, R&R (Gage Repeatability and Reproducibility) Studies, and Quality Checklists.
Operations & Maintenance: Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), Work Instructions, Calibration Procedures, and Process Monitoring plans.
Controls & IT: Input on HMI Controls logic, MES Transactions Lists, and process parameters tracking.
Qualifications
Education & Experience: Bachelor’s degree in Chemical Engineering, Materials Science, Industrial Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or a related technical discipline with 3+ years of experience.
Process & Statistical Mastery: Deep expertise running DoEs (Design of Experiments), Gage R&R studies, and statistical process control (SPC) to optimize high-precision manufacturing processes.
Documentation Expert: Expert-level experience authoring and developing standard manufacturing documents (PFMEA, Control Plans, Work Instructions, and Process Flows).
Trial Execution: Proven track record of designing and running on-floor production trials to dial in complex equipment parameters without causing excessive downtime.
Good to Have (Preferred Skills)
Experience specifically in heavy industrial manufacturing, metallurgy, magnetics, or chemical processing.
Six Sigma Green Belt or Black Belt certification.
Familiarity with MES (Manufacturing Execution Systems) implementation and automated transaction mapping.
Experience in highly regulated industries such as Defense (DoD), Aerospace (AS9100), or Automotive (IATF 16949).
