About the CompanyFoundation Alloy is building the most advanced metal alloy company in the world. Our mission is to unlock performance that legacy materials and processes simply cannot deliver, enabling the next generation of critical hardware across space, aerospace, defense, energy, and industrial applications.Our proprietary MetalsFIRST™ platform eliminates melting entirely, using mechanical alloying and rapid sintering to produce alloys with ultra-fine grain structures and exceptional properties. We are already deploying initial materials, including our Molyclast™ alloys (MC700, MC1200, and MC-X) and specialty steels.We are a Boston-area company commercializing deep materials science developed at the intersection of advanced manufacturing and frontier materials science. We move fast, operate with high technical rigor, and are scaling the infrastructure to bring these materials into production.What you'll be working on:Foundation Alloy is seeking a Production Engineer to join our team. You will be working closely with a talented and collaborative group of engineers and materials scientists to operate and support our production powder metal manufacturing processes and systems.Key Responsibilities<ul><li>Being the subject matter expert for operating and maintaining our production equipment.</li><li>Charging, operating, and discharging the multiple units according to the production schedule.</li><li>Perform preventative and corrective maintenance on all powder production and ancillary equipment like vacuum pumps and gas delivery and monitoring systems.</li><li>Helping define standard work for machine operations, lean manufacturing processes for powder production, and mechanical requirements for our factory floor.</li><li>Supporting the development of future designs of powder manufacturing and  handling methods, methods for cold isostatic press part handling, and sintering operations. </li></ul>Qualifications<ul><li>Mechanical and manufacturing mindset; You enjoy understanding how things work, fixing things, and improving on processes.</li><li>Excellent problem-solving skills and attention to detail with a desire to work in a task oriented environment.</li><li>Ability to work collaboratively in a team environment with engineers and PhDs.</li><li>Ability to handle and lift 50 lbs.</li></ul>CultureWe don’t look for profiles that “fit” with our culture.
