Job Description

At Lockheed Martin, we apply our passion for purposeful innovation to keep people safe and solve the world's most complex challenges. We are seeking a talented Manufacturing Engineer to join our team in the Optical Components Center (OCC) to help develop many best-in-class products and solutions in our Missiles and Fire Control Business Area in Orlando, FL.

What You Will Be Doing

The Manufacturing Engineer position reports directly to the functional area manager in Orlando, FL within the OCC that focuses on the photolithography process and thin film coating of optics. We work with small-scale challenges that will make a significant impact to the customer. We design, develop, and support the production life-cycle of electromagnetic grids and thin film coatings for various optical systems. It is our responsibility to evaluate and measure the performance of the resulting grids and coatings. If you enjoy understanding how a production process influences an end product, fast-paced work environment and working on a wide range of equipment, this opportunity will be an exciting role for you!

The responsibilities include but not limited to :

Support manufacturing processes of optics, with an emphasis on photolithography and thin film coatings.

Define the parameters of equipment for the processes and define the maintenance items for supporting the equipment for product sustainment.

Perform characterization of the deposited coatings and analyze data.

Provide technical guidance to operators and effectively communicate the processes in work instructions. Develop and manage work instructions.

Apply lean manufacturing techniques and be expected to support as Team Leader of SIA / Kaizen events.

Investigate defective hardware and provide next steps to get the hardware back into production and implement corrective actions that will prevent defect from occurring.

Lead non-recurring efforts. This includes delegating tasks to other team members, expected to design and develop grid and / or coatings per engineering requirements.

Participate in research and development as a PI or task lead within a project with center focused scope.

Drive the adoption of new technologies (capital investments, automation, robotics) to improve efficiency and quality.

This position is for first shift, Monday to Thursday (4 / 10A) or Tuesday to Friday (4 / 10B) – depends on business needs at the time of hiring.

Why Join Us

Desired skills

Breadth in skills, experience and / or course work across multiple disciplines of manufacturing engineering is strongly desired. Examples include but not limited to : writing / reviewing work instructions (or standard operating procedure manuals), data analytics, automation, mechanical design of equipment or supporting tools, maintaining the product lifecycle, and working in a clean room environment.

Candidates with thin film coating specialization will have skills and / or experience in the design, manufacturing (physical vapor deposition, ion beam sputtering, chemical vapor deposition), and metrology of optical thin film coatings.

Candidates with photolithography specialization will have skills and / or experience with semiconductor fabrication processes (wafer preparation, coating, exposure, development, and etching) and with photolithography equipment (steppers, scanners, and track system).

Previous experience in vacuum systems, physical vapor deposition, sputtering systems, and advanced plasma sources is a plus.

Previous experience or knowledge of a variety of analytical and metrology techniques including but not limited to spectrophotometry, ellipsometry, interferometry, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and X-ray diffraction.

Knowledge of process control techniques, including statistical process control (SPC), control charts, and yield enhancement.

Demonstrated small team leadership skills. Ability to collaborate with other manufacturing engineers, quality engineers, operators, supervision, and electro-optical engineers to solve problems.

Troubleshooting skills and demonstrating the use of LSS tools is highly desired.

Having strong time management skills (ability to adjust priorities), ability to work independently, and able to communicate effectively with cross-functional teams are critical skills to support on the floor production.
