A bit about us:
A growing advanced manufacturing and machining organization supporting aerospace and defense customers is expanding into chemical processing operations and is seeking an experienced Senior Chemical Process Engineer. This role will play a critical part in establishing, managing, and sustaining compliance for NADCAP-accredited chemical processes and inspections.
This is a rare opportunity to build and lead an in-house chemical processing operation inside a fast-growing precision manufacturing environment serving aerospace/defense customers. If you've wanted a role where you're not just maintaining a mature line-but owning the launch, qualification, and long-term success of a new capability - this one is built for that.
Why join us?
This Engineer won't be buried in a large organization. They'll be highly visible and closely tied to business success. Your work will directly affect:
Customer approvals
Audit outcomes
In-house capability growth
Cost reduction from bringing processes internal
Salary: Starting at $120,000 - $150,000 annually, depending on experience
Competitive benefits package including:
401(k) with company match
Health, dental, and vision insurance
Life insurance
Paid vacation, holidays, and personal time
Job Details
What you'll be building / leading:
Implementation and optimization of surface finishing and coating processes (conversion coatings, anodizing, pre-paint prep, priming/painting, and related inspection/testing)
Creation of SOPs, risk assessments, safe handling procedures, and process controls
Troubleshooting yield/quality issues using data, root cause, and corrective actions
Ownership of wastewater treatment and environmental controls connected to chemical operations
Leadership of technicians: training, expectations, coaching, and building a safety-first culture
Driving the facility toward industry and customer certifications (including special process accreditation and aerospace quality requirements)
Audit support and customer/regulatory technical interface
What success looks like:
Within the first 6-12 months, you've helped stand up stable processes with strong controls, trained technicians who can execute consistently, and moved the operation toward certification readiness-while improving safety, yield, and throughput.
Who this fits best
You'll love this role if you have experience in:
Chemical process engineering in regulated manufacturing (aerospace/defense/high-tech preferred)
Surface treatments / finishing chemistry (anodizing, conversion coatings, cleaning/etching, coatings/paint systems, inspection methods)
Quality toolsets: SPC, FMEA/PFMEA, MSA, RCA/corrective action
Chemical bath control methods (titrations, pH, metrics, and control plans)
Environmental compliance and/or waste treatment systems
