The Braze Specialist will be responsible for developing, documenting, and monitoring brazing and heat treatment processes for components in our manufacturing facility. This includes furnace brazing and vacuum brazing, as well as various heat treatment processes such as solution treatment, stabilization, diffusion, precipitation hardening & aging, and stress relief for alloys like aluminum, stainless steel, and Inconel.
The Braze Specialist will work with Design and Manufacturing Engineering teams, as well as workers on the manufacturing floor, to troubleshoot and improve brazing processes. This role will focus on increasing the consistency and yield of brazing by studying processes and products before, during, and after brazing. This role will also be involved in some metallurgical work, including identifying samples for on-site lab review to resolve potential issues such as corrosion, incipient melting, maintaining heat levels and increasing the strength of our products.
Qualifications Familiarity with vacuum brazing for both reconditioning existing parts and brazing new parts. Ability to read and interpret blueprints and work process instructions. Working knowledge of heat treatment and brazing processes, particularly in aerospace components. Knowledge of commercial brazing and heat treatment specifications (e.g., AMS 2675, AMS 2750, AMS 2759, AMS 2770, AWS C3.7, AWS B2.2) Strong communication, organizational, and decision-making skills. Ability to collaborate effectively in a team environment and assist, educate, and train others.

Consistent compliance with safety and health regulations, including respiratory protection and hearing conservation programs, if applicable. Bachelor’s degree in engineering from an accredited institution or equivalent experience (e.g., equivalent experience would include at least five (5) years’ experience with vacuum brazing, welding, metal joining systems in a manufacturing environment.)
