STENA Who YOU are and what YOU can become We are seeking a hands-on, self-driven, and highly collaborative Manufacturing Engineer to join our Advanced Technology team, supporting the development, operation, and integration of emerging manufacturing technologies used to prototype and produce next-generation aerospace components. This role is ideal for an engineer who enjoys working directly with manufacturing equipment, building hardware, supporting prototype development, and solving practical engineering challenges. A major focus of this position will be ownership and operation of industrial additive manufacturing systems while supporting broader advanced manufacturing initiatives including composite development, tooling fabrication, machining support, and manufacturing process development. You will work closely with design engineers, manufacturing teams, technicians, and research groups to accelerate product development, improve manufacturing capabilities, and enable innovative aerospace structures and processes. You will bring hands-on experience operating industrial additive manufacturing equipment and supporting advanced manufacturing environments. Experience with aerospace manufacturing, composite materials, tooling development, prototyping, and machining operations is highly valued. Who WE are and where WE are going At ST Engineering MRAS, our employees have amazing opportunities to work on advanced technologies and systems that support thousands of customers and millions of people worldwide every day. From the first flight across the Pacific Ocean to developing highly complex structures for the most popular aircraft in the world, we have come a long way always with a can-do approach to problem solving while delighting customers with our high say-do ratio. We are looking for people with innovative ideas and the drive to help us grow into the future. A pioneer in the production and assembly of complex aerostructures including aircraft and rocket components, engine nacelle systems, thrust reversers and advanced composite products, we apply the latest digital technologies and automation in composite design and manufacturing that are second to none. At ST Engineering MRAS, we are also rapidly augmenting our maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) capabilities leveraging the company's expanded aircraft nacelle portfolio as well as it's materials and processing expertise. What YOU will do 1. Advanced Manufacturing & Additive Manufacturing Operations

• Operate, maintain, and support industrial additive manufacturing systems including FDM, SLA, SLS, and future additive technologies
• Produce prototype parts, tooling, fixtures, and manufacturing aids supporting engineering development and production activities
• Manage additive manufacturing workflows including job preparation, machine scheduling, post-processing, and quality verification
• Maintain additive manufacturing materials inventory including ordering, storage, handling, and process documentation
• Support the evaluation, qualification, and implementation of new additive manufacturing technologies and materials
• Develop best practices and standardized procedures for additive manufacturing operations 2. Product, Tooling & Manufacturing Development
• Collaborate with engineering teams to develop additive manufacturing solutions for prototypes, tooling, production-support hardware, and manufacturing demonstrations
• Support composite manufacturing development activities including tooling development, prototype fabrication, and process improvement initiatives
• Design, fabricate, assemble, and evaluate prototype hardware, tooling, fixtures, jigs, and manufacturing aids
• Support manufacturing trials, process development activities, and documentation of findings and lessons learned
• Troubleshoot manufacturing, assembly, and process-related issues while identifying opportunities for improvement
• Demonstrate strong design-for-manufacturing and production-readiness principles 3. Equipment, Safety & Technical Coordination
• Support CNC machining operations and manufacturing activities including 5-axis machining applications used for prototype and tooling development
• Work with Environmental Health & Safety (EHS) teams to ensure safe operation of manufacturing systems and compliance with company and regulatory requirements
• Support Safety Data Sheet (SDS) management and material approval processes for new manufacturing technologies and materials
• Coordinate activities across engineering, manufacturing, suppliers, and external technology partners to support development programs and manufacturing initiatives
