Brown & Root, Houston, Texas, United States, 77246


Job DescriptionThe Machinist may work in the machine shop, maintenance shops or customer facilities providing precision machining to tolerance levels, idea to concept design, blueprint drawing, documentation, material selection, heat treating, special machining process, process application, fabrication, procurement, data collection, troubleshooting for Research and Development projects and maintenance services.Suitable applicants must be competent in CNC, EDM and manual machining processes.In addition, the Machinist will:Handle material purchases from a variety of vendors, tooling selection for projects, coordination with outside shops, rate negotiations with outside shops, customer feedback and up-dates on projects sent to outside shops.Be computer competent and mentor others in the use of computer programs and policies around their use. Uses the range of Microsoft software required for conducting business and all others such as SAP/SERP, SAPTMS and other re-quired programs for business continuity.Possess detailed machining knowledge and fabrication experience. Contribute to project and customer design planning. Always look for new and innovative approaches to fabrication of equipment. Assist or produce drawings for clients and as-sists in design of equipment. Reverse engineer parts and is capable of reading detailed/complex prints.Possess detailed knowledge and troubleshooting experience. Coaches and develops others. Implements system level corrective action. Contributes to project and customer change activity planning. Have design/build experience which includes troubleshooting and producing, reading, and interpreting blueprints, manuals, P ID's and datasheets, as well as material certification documents. Very customer focused and implements corrective action to ensure customer satisfaction.Independently use all measurement devices, tools and per-forms machine tool operations including manual machine tools, lathes, mills, grinders, drill presses, saws and radial drills. Also possesses knowledge of intricate measuring de-vices and machine equipment used by outside shops such as gun drilling, EDM and metal finishing shops. Pass this information on to co-workers in the shop. Is the go to person for machining needs at STCH. Is very self-directed and extremely capable of thinking through projects, making recommendations and produce equipment required for R D to perform their work.Possess detailed knowledge of specifications and standards and coaches' others in their use. Obtains material certifications and providing quality assurance for materials as specified. Applies all ASTM, ANSI and other Shell and external standards required to fabricate parts/equipment. Passes this knowledge on to co-workers.Mastery of tool die making techniques, precision machining, metallurgy, heat treating, machine application, pressure equipment, welding, fabrication, shop math and trigonometry.Mastery of machining precision straight threads, taper threads, upset, multiple lead and ACME threads.Mastery of precision machining and fabrication of parts from materials such as carbon steels, alloy steels, stainless steels, nickel steels, plastics, Teflon's, Plexi-glass, and ceramics.Creates and manages maintenance file, drawings and records systems. Maintains a file system associated with as-signed projects for reference and historical data. This includes prints, drawings, and sketches as well as data sheets for pressure equipment built following ISO standards. This in-formation is provided to the customer on job completion. Maintains file for material certifications.Must be able to work with a very diverse clientele and at times under extreme pressure and cost restraints. Must be able to coach and be a leader for diversity.Ensures shop personnel are adequately trained on existing and new equipment in the shop. Schedule training for new equipment.Understand PMI (Positive Material Identification) processes and have personnel ready to use PMI equipment to verify mill certs as well as assist the PEI team for PMI work related to maintenance and projects as required.Run all types of manual machine tools, lathes, mills, grinders, drill presses, saws, radial drills, CNC program for milling, CNC milling setup and machining.
