Job Description Summary

GEVernova’s Grid Solutions business electrifies the world with advanced grid technologies and systems, enabling power transmission and distribution across the power grid, and supporting a decarbonized and secured energy transition.

As a Materials Rework Specialist you will be responsible for performing and determining the necessary corrective actions or rework procedures to ensure that only compliant, high-quality components proceed to the assembly floor after deviations are identified. This role will work closely with the in-coming inspection and production quality teams to perform required administration process steps and all necessary rework functions including the purchase of materials and tooling to correct material deviations to meet target deadlines for material availability. This role will also coordinate the rework process with other departments when material handling, outside suppliers and any additional support is needed.

Job Description

Schedule

Monday - Friday working 8 hour shifts between the hours of 6am-3:30pm

Key Responsibilities

• Non-Conformance Management: Work with Quality and R&D Engineering to make an accurate determination if components can be "reworked to print," with all required quality standards in a timely and cost-effective manner to meet production requirements for material availability.

• Precision Rework: Execute rework procedures on components, including light fabrication, deburring, surface finishing, bolt-hole alignment correction, minor machining operations or cleaning/polishing of sheet metal or machined components.

• Measurement & Documentation: Coordinate and utilize precision measurement equipment (CMM, calipers, micrometers, thread gauges) to verify rework effectiveness and capability. Record inspection results and rework data in the Quality Management Systems.

• Supplier Collaboration: Assist in gathering data for Material Corrective Action Requests (MCAR’s) to help reduce future defect rates from external vendors and provide suppliers with recommendations for improvement.

• Technical Compliance: Ensure all reworked components adhere to high-voltage dielectric and mechanical integrity standards required in IEEE and IEC standards for required performance and duration.

 

Required Qualifications

• Experience: Minimum 2 years of experience in high-voltage switchgear inspection, precision manufacturing, or quality assurance.

• Technical Literacy: Ability to interpret complex technical drawings, GD&T (Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing), and material specifications to develop simple cost-effective rework solutions.

• Problem Solving: Ability to apply component knowledge and experience with mechanical skills to develop creative and timely methods to achieve desired rework outcomes.

• Tooling: Proficiency with inspection tools (micrometers, gauges, hardness testers) and basic shop tools (drills, grinders, polishers) for rework tasks.

• Attention to Detail: Exceptional ability to detect minor defects (e.g., casting porosity, coating flaws, surface imperfections) that could compromise high-voltage operations.

• System Knowledge: Basic familiarity with ERP systems (SAP, MQCR Database) for inventory movement and quality logging.

• Safety: Perform rework operations in accordance with all safety and quality policies and practices

Preferred Skills

• Strong mechanical skills, ability to solve problems with creative and simple solutions

• Strong written and verbal communication skills

• Ability to work autonomously and manage multiple projects in parallel

• Ability to work with hands and perform manual tasks

• Proficient at use of measurement devices and tooling
