Position Overview We are seeking an experienced MRB Liaison Engineer to provide hands-on engineering support for aircraft production operations at our Burlington, Vermont facility. This position will work closely with Manufacturing, Quality, Design Engineering, Stress, Materials and Processes, and other technical teams to evaluate manufacturing nonconformances and provide timely engineering dispositions.
The ideal candidate will have strong Material Review Board and production liaison experience, with particular expertise in composite aircraft structures and assemblies. The engineer must be comfortable working directly with the manufacturing floor in a fast-paced production environment.
This is an onsite position that may require support for weekend production shifts, typically approximately every other weekend, based on manufacturing priorities.
Key Responsibilities
Analyze manufacturing nonconformances involving composite structures, assemblies, and components.
Provide additional MRB support for metallic structures and other aircraft systems as required.
Review engineering drawings, specifications, technical documentation, and Nonconformance Reports to determine appropriate engineering dispositions.
Develop clear, technically sound dispositions in accordance with approved engineering procedures and regulatory requirements.
Support Material Review Board activities by providing timely engineering decisions that minimize production delays and maintain manufacturing flow.
Collaborate with Design Engineering, Stress Engineering, Materials and Processes, Manufacturing Engineering, Quality, and other technical disciplines to resolve complex or out-of-scope deviations.
Provide technical consultation, drawing interpretation, repair guidance, and troubleshooting support to Manufacturing, Quality, the internal composites shop, and external suppliers.
Evaluate proposed repairs and rework plans for structural and manufacturing nonconformances.
Support root cause investigations and corrective action activities, including RCCA and 8D processes.
Communicate engineering decisions clearly to both technical and production personnel.
Maintain accurate documentation of engineering evaluations, dispositions, and supporting technical rationale.
Provide onsite production support at the Burlington, Vermont facility.
Support weekend production shifts when required, generally anticipated to be approximately every other weekend.
Required Qualifications
Bachelor’s degree in Aerospace Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Structural Engineering, or a related technical discipline.
Significant experience working as an MRB, Liaison, Manufacturing Support, or Production Support Engineer in the aerospace industry.
Strong experience evaluating and dispositioning manufacturing nonconformances.
Demonstrated knowledge of composite aircraft structures, materials, manufacturing processes, and repair methods.
Ability to interpret engineering drawings, specifications, structural requirements, and manufacturing documentation.
Experience working directly with aircraft manufacturing, production, and quality teams.
Strong understanding of MRB procedures, engineering change processes, and configuration-controlled documentation.
Ability to make timely engineering decisions in a fast-paced production environment.
Strong written and verbal communication skills.
Ability to work independently while coordinating effectively with cross-functional engineering teams.
Availability to work onsite in Burlington, Vermont and support weekend production shifts as needed.
Preferred Qualifications
Experience supporting composite fabrication and assembly operations.
Experience with both composite and metallic aircraft structures.
Familiarity with stress analysis, structural repair development, and damage tolerance principles.
Experience supporting prototype, advanced air mobility, electric aircraft, or new aircraft development programs.
Experience with root cause and corrective action methodologies such as RCCA, 8D, or similar processes.
Previous experience supporting suppliers and internal manufacturing shops.
Experience working in a high-rate or rapidly evolving production environment.
