** Role Purpose*
* ** Corning
* * is hiring a
** Process Engineer
** based in
** Corning, NY** . This is an
** onsite role
** with
** relocation assistance available** . Travel is a key part of the position and typically runs
** 50% or more depending on project needs** , primarily within the U.S., with occasional international travel.

For engineers who want more variety, more real-world problem solving, and more exposure than a typical plant-based role can offer, this position provides a unique opportunity to work across multiple manufacturing sites, technologies, and business areas. You will be brought into important projects where process engineering support is needed most-whether that means helping with ramp-ups, new equipment, process changes, quality issues, or manufacturing performance improvements.

It is a strong fit for someone who wants to stay close to operations, build broad experience quickly, and make a visible impact in the field rather than following a purely office-based design path.

** Key Responsibilities*
* + Support the design and development of new processes and improvements to existing manufacturing processes at Corning facilities worldwide

+ Partner with manufacturing sites to solve process problems, reduce defects, eliminate root causes, and improve overall process performance

+ Support major initiatives such as new plant activity, line start-ups, equipment implementation, production ramp-ups, and quality improvement efforts

+ Apply structured problem-solving methods such as designed experimentation, Six Sigma, and DMAIC to troubleshoot issues and drive sustainable improvements

+ Analyze process data using statistical tools such as Pareto analysis, regression, time charting, analysis of variance, and gauge R&R to guide decision-making

+ Help implement and strengthen process control and process discipline within manufacturing operations

+ Work with suppliers to improve performance and help ensure measurement and inspection systems meet operational and customer needs

+ Evaluate new raw materials, equipment, and process parameters to improve cost, quality, uptime, yield, cycle time, and safety

+ Review performance data, communicate results against established objectives, and recommend immediate actions, long-term corrective actions, and follow-up experiments

+ Document standard operating procedures, experiment plans, and process changes, and mentor operators and peers on established processes

** Minimum Qualifications and Skills*
* + Bachelor's degree in chemical, materials, ceramic, or mechanical engineering; master's degree preferred

+ Minimum of 2-4 years of relevant hands-on engineering or manufacturing experience, with a track record of successfully solving process problems based on fundamental understanding

+ Ability to apply engineering principles and…
