You start, execute and finish projects to support the development of machining knowledge for prioritized components and features according to customer needs and demands. You perform development testing at our own workshop to evaluate the ideas based on data from the machines, collaborating with global specialists and machine operators on the latest CNC machinery and analyzing the results of tests. You also generate ideas for new development loops or summarize results and conclusions in reports, knowledge sharing activities and training sessions both in person and by web.

An important part is networking and you closely interact with the Aerospace Offer Management department to launch component feature solutions internally and externally. In addition, you support customer projects, collaborate with other R&D centers and monitor the technology development in the field through customer visits, exhibitions and technical literature.

Another key part of this role is the contact with our customers and other key stakeholders, and this includes several international travel days during normal circumstances.
