You will own the hands-on production of ceramic assemblies, performing material prep, fixturing, joining, high-temperature thermal processing, and in-process quality control. You will lead the transition of critical processes from external vendors to internal production, designing fixtures, test stands, and automation that make the workflow repeatable. You will build programmatic interfaces to process equipment, define process parameters and work instructions, characterize sub-components, run root-cause analysis on defects, and document SOPs and calibration routines.
