Repair Process Plan Engineer

Process Plan Engineer

At Quest Global, it's not just what we do but how and why we do it that makes us different. With over 25 years as an engineering services provider, we believe in the power of doing things differently to make the impossible possible. Our people are driven by the desire to make the world a better place—to make a positive difference that contributes to a brighter future. We bring together technologies and industries, alongside the contributions of diverse individuals who are empowered by an intentional workplace culture, to solve problems better and faster.

The Process Plan engineer understands the repair operation developed against the non-conformance regarding defects arising during the manufacturing and Assembly process and as compared to the product definition requirements.

Their role is to evaluate and provide process plan instructions in Solumina (MES) against the repair schemes for the operators at the shop floor to ensure all the repair procedures are accomplished successfully and meet the safety, regulatory and quality requirements.

Key Responsibilities:

• Perform engineering analysis of discrepant parts which includes Forgings / Castings / Precision machined aero-engine components and Assemblies, etc.
• Responsible for investigation of all non-conformance reports and all responses using proven problem-solving methodology to complete the non-conformance design assessment and disposition
• Analyse repair requirements to create the Process Plan and plan the details of facility / machines / consumables required to perform the repairs
• Analyse the cost of facility/machines/consumables
• Good understanding of manufacturing and inspection tools and processes used in the overhaul and repair industry, such as heat treat, thermal spray, glass bead & shot peening, arc welding, Wide Gap brazing, machining, CMM, Torquing, balancing etc.
• Well versed in Engine Manual and Repair Schemes, Airworthiness Directives and Service Bulletins.
• Knowledge of GD&T, tool/fixture design and applications in MRO.
• Presentations and customer report generation and delivery
• Work closely with the production floor, support process improvements, and incorporate best practices and productivity improvement into daily operations.
• Coordinate across a large number of functional areas, including manufacturing engineers in resolution of technical and operational challenges or concerns raised regarding Process Plans, and ensure follow through till approval is obtained, and Process plan is approved and loaded into MES for shop operations usage.

We are known for our extraordinary people who make the impossible possible every day. Questians are driven by hunger, humility, and aspiration. We believe that our company culture is the key to our ability to make a true difference in every industry we reach. Our teams regularly invest time and dedicated effort into internal culture work, ensuring that all voices are heard.

We wholeheartedly believe in the diversity of thought that comes with fostering a culture rooted in respect, where everyone belongs, is valued, and feels inspired to share their ideas. We know embracing our unique differences makes us better, and that solving the worlds hardest engineering problems requires diverse ideas, perspectives, and backgrounds. We shine the brightest when we tap into the many dimensions that thrive across over 21,000 difference-makers in our workplace.
