We’re hiring a CNC Process Engineer for our Euclid, Ohio facility to develop, oversee, and improve manufacturing processes supporting our high-performance metals products, including tungsten and molybdenum . You’ll work closely with Operations, Quality, and employees on the manufacturing floor to solve production problems, improve yield and capability, introduce new equipment and processes, and make sure manufacturing documentation accurately reflects how products are actually made.
This is a strong opportunity for an engineer who likes combining technical analysis with hands-on problem-solving.

Tuition assistance
Professional development opportunities
Internal career growth
What You’ll Do
As a CNC Process Engineer, you’ll own and improve manufacturing processes within your assigned product line.
You’ll:
Develop, document, and oversee manufacturing processes for molybdenum, tungsten, and toll-processing products
Work closely with Operations and Quality to ensure processes reflect actual production practices
Create and maintain OPCs, BOMs, routing structures, and detailed manufacturing instructions
Ensure manufacturing processes support required cost structures and customer quality requirements
Evaluate existing processes to identify opportunities to improve capability, efficiency, yield, and consistency
Develop and implement new manufacturing processes and methods
Evaluate and introduce new equipment and tooling
Support new product and process development
Work directly with employees on the manufacturing floor to troubleshoot and resolve production problems
Provide technical support to customers to define product and process requirements
Help troubleshoot customer material and application issues
Partner with Quality Control and Quality Assurance to investigate nonconforming material
Support resolution of customer complaints and manufacturing quality issues
Lead and participate in corrective and preventive action initiatives
Use tools such as FMEA and other quality analyses to identify and reduce process risk
Support vendor interactions, equipment evaluations, and equipment development
Travel occasionally when required to support vendors, equipment, or other business needs
Requirements
You Could Be a Great Fit!
We’re looking for an engineer who is technically strong but also comfortable getting out from behind a desk and working directly with manufacturing. You could be a strong fit if you have:
An Associate’s or Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical, Electrical, IT, Engineering Technology, or a related technical discipline
3–5 years of relevant experience in metals, powder metals, or a similar manufacturing environment
Experience developing, documenting, or improving manufacturing processes
Strong analytical and problem-solving skills
Working knowledge of MRP/ERP systems
Proficiency with Microsoft Office
Experience working with CAD, including SolidWorks
CNC programming experience using MasterCam, SolidCam, or similar tools
Experience supporting multi-axis milling and turning applications
The ability to interpret manufacturing problems, identify potential causes, and develop practical solutions
Strong written and verbal communication skills
The ability to work independently while collaborating effectively with Operations, Quality, and other technical teams
A willingness to spend time on the manufacturing floor understanding how processes actually perform
Additional Tools in Your Toolbox
These aren’t necessarily required, but they can help you hit the ground running:
SAP experience
Lean Manufacturing
Six Sigma Green Belt certification
Statistical Process Control (SPC)
Global Shop or similar manufacturing systems
FMEA
Corrective and preventive action processes
Powder metallurgy
Hot working of metals
Refractory metals manufacturing
Equipment specification, evaluation, or commissioning
Process capability and yield improvement
What Success Looks Like
Successful Process Engineers at Elmet make manufacturing easier to understand, control, and improve.
You’ll know you’re succeeding when:
Manufacturing documentation accurately reflects what happens on the production floor
BOMs, routings, OPCs, and work instructions are accurate and usable
Operators have clear processes they can consistently follow
Production problems are investigated and resolved rather than repeatedly worked around
Process capability and yields improve
Quality issues and nonconforming material are addressed systematically
Corrective actions solve underlying problems
New equipment and processes transition successfully into production
Cost and quality requirements are considered when process changes are made
Operations and Quality see Engineering as a practical partner in solving problems
Customer technical questions receive clear, informed support
Engineering That Happens on the Manufacturing Floor
This isn’t a role where process engineering happens entirely behind a computer.
When something isn’t working as expected, you’ll go to the process, talk with the people operating it, review the data, and help determine what needs to change. That could mean adjusting a manufacturing method, investigating a quali
