Senior Process Control Technician - Aluminum Die Casting

What You'll Do: You will monitor and analyze critical process variables on automated, high-pressure aluminum die casting cells. These include melt temperatures, shot profiles, injection speeds, intensification pressures, cycle times, and die lubrication. You will use real-time shot monitoring systems and review X-ray inspection data to confirm parts meet customer specifications. When defects appear, you will lead root-cause analysis on issues such as porosity, cold shuts, soldering, blisters, flash, misruns, and shrinkage. You will then adjust process parameters to correct them. You will set up, fine-tune, and validate parameters for new product launches, die tryouts, and ongoing production. You will also work with quality and engineering on production trials to validate changes and improve first-pass yield. You will create and maintain process setup sheets and operating instructions. You will also train machine operators and setup technicians on standardized parameters so the process runs consistently across the shift.
