What are the responsibilities and job description for the Entry Level Process Engineer position at GEOTEK LLC?
Brief Description
Entry Level Process Engineer – 2nd Shift
About The Role
GEOTEK manufactures engineered fiberglass composite structures for utility infrastructure using continuous manufacturing processes- pultrusion and filament winding. We've been doing it for over 30 years and we're growing.
We're hiring a Process Engineer to be the engineering presence on our floor during 2nd shift. You'll be the person operations comes to when something isn't running right- troubleshooting, running trials, designing tooling in SolidWorks, and pushing improvements that stick.
You don't need composites experience walking in- we'll teach you the pultrusion and filament winding. What we're after is someone hands-on who wants to own the process and grow with it.
This is a hands-on role with real ownership. You're not shadowing an engineer waiting for direction. You're the one making the call and following through.
What You'll Do
Lead 2nd shift engineering support for filament winding and pultrusion production
Troubleshoot production issues and drive root cause analysis with operations crews
Own continuous improvement projects from problem identification through implementation
Design fixtures, tooling, and ancillary components in SolidWorks
Build and maintain work instructions, troubleshooting guides, and process documentation
Support engineering R&D and process trials
Train and coach production operators on process and equipment
Challenge how we do things today and propose better equipment, tooling, and methods
What We're Looking For
Bachelor's degree in engineering (mechanical, chemical, materials, or manufacturing preferred)
Working knowledge of SolidWorks- parts, assemblies, and drawings
Willingness to learn composites manufacturing on the job- we'll teach you the process
Comfortable working a 2:00 PM – 10:00 PM, Monday – Friday schedule
Self Starter
Strong communicator with everyone from line operators to plant leadership
Organized and detail-oriented
Physical Work Conditions
Time should be split between the floor and the office or meeting rooms ranging anywhere from 25% to 75% on the production floor or engineering labs. While working on the floor there will be work with and around moving machinery, fumes and chemicals. Office work requires sitting at a desk, using a computer and phone.
The compensation range for this position is $66,265 – $82,831. Final offers may vary based on several factors, including experience, skills, and qualifications. The posted range represents the expected earning potential for this position within the current organizational budget and market conditions.

For over 30 years, GEOTEK has been internationally recognized for industry leading composite technologies, engineering, and service. The company has grown PUPI® into the leading global provider of fiberglass crossarms and is committed to adding and developing other market-leading composite brands for the world's infrastructure. The company was founded in 1990 to manufacture and market Common Sense Fencing and other pultruded fiberglass products. Early on GEOTEK also began producing utility composite crossarms for Pultruded Utility Products, Inc., a company it acquired in 2000 and renamed Pultruded Utility Products International (PUPI) to reflect the global opportunity for these products. PUPI (pronounced "puppy") is a brand of GEOTEK. Using proprietary processes and several patented inventions, GEOTEK manufactures and distributes engineered fiberglass composites that are used by the transmission and distribution power lines and substations. The company is well positioned for sustained growth and profitability through market expansion and new product offerings.
