Opportunity

With more than 120 operations and approximately 20,000 employees worldwide, Precision Castparts Corp. is the market leader in manufacturing large, complex structural investment castings, airfoil castings, forged components, aerostructures and highly engineered, critical fasteners for aerospace applications. In addition, we are the leading producer of airfoil castings for the industrial gas turbine market. We also manufacture extruded seamless pipe, fittings, and forgings for power generation and oil & gas applications;

commercial and military airframe aerostructures; and metal alloys and other materials for the casting and forging industries. With such critical applications, we insist on quality and dependability - not just in the materials and products we make, but in the people we recruit.

PCC is relentless in its dedication to being a high‑quality, low‑cost and on‑time producer; delivering the highest value to its customers while continually pursuing strategic, profitable growth.

In 2016, Berkshire Hathaway, led by Chairman and CEO Warren

E. Buffett, acquired Precision Castparts Corp.

Training

Schedule:

Monday through Friday, 5:00am to 1:30pm

To separate gating systems from castings using rods or torches within close tolerances to reduce grinding time and other potential rework. To prepare castings for saws and other cleaning operations by separating gating systems without damaging castings.

Objective: to apply developed skill, understanding, mastery of equipment and understanding of the dimensional requirements of finished parts to remove gating system metals from castings achieving close tolerances within one‑eighth inch or less of finished part dimensions. Finished work products generally exceed tech card standards for cleaning operations.

Essential Job Functions:

• Verifies correct lot numbers and serialization; reviews Technique Cards.
• Operates air carbon arc torch in burnout booth to cut and separate gating systems from parts cuts as close to the part as practical without damaging castings
• Cleans shell material from around gatings using pneumatic tools. (Marginal job function at LSBO and SSBO).
• Mixes protective coating; coats castings for protection.
• Cuts off, cleans, documents and verifies test bars for proper identification and routing.
• After removal, sorts gating by metal alloy for revert processing.
• Removes gating and test bars using abrasive saws. (SSBO and LSBO only).
• Section cuts castings and gatings for evaluating by engineering as needed. (LSBO and SSBO only).

Objective: to maintain Burnoff equipment in proper working order.

Essential Job Functions:

• Performs minor maintenance on equipment, including torches, hand tools, stingers, and gas lines.
• Contacts maintenance or advises supervisor of need for other equipment repairs/maintenance.

Objective: to participate in the assessment of Burnoff skills of new operators and provide training necessary to achieve tech card standards. To communicate, share information, accept criticism and input from grinders and others and document work when necessary.

Essential Job Functions:

• Accept assignment of new Burnoff operator(s) for training. Provide training necessary to such individual(s) to develop necessary job skills.
• Provide feedback to supervision regarding progress of individual trainees and assessments of observed performance upon request.
• Communicate with supervisory and/or grinding personnel regarding tolerances achieved on parts, amount of grinding necessary or additional Burnoff possible on specific areas of parts. Accept and productively apply input, criticism and feedback to improve quality of future work product - particularly when working on new parts.
• Work with others including supervision, engineers, grinding, etc. to develop techniques for improving tolerances achieved and establish precision tolerances attainable on new or modified parts.
