At Corning, there are endless possibilities for making an impact. You can help connect the unconnected, drive the future of automobiles, transform at-home entertainment, and ensure the delivery of lifesaving medicines. And so much more.

Come break through with us.

Corning’s businesses are ever-evolving to best serve our customers, industries, and consumers. Today, we accelerate and transform life sciences, mobile consumer electronics, optical communications, display, automotive, and solar markets. We are changing the world with:

Trusted products that accelerate drug discovery, development, and delivery to save lives

Auto glass and ceramics to drive cleaner, safer, and smarter transportation
Solar polysilicon, wafers, and innovative photovoltaic modules, enabling low-cost solar energy solutions

Role Purpose

Join Corning's Durham Campus team and help shape the manufacturing processes behind our glass, extruded and injection molded products. You will lead improvement projects, bring new technologies into production, and partner with operations and engineering to make our systems safer, higher quality and more reliable. Normal hours are Monday to Friday, 8am to 5pm, with flexibility as business needs require. The role also supports a 24/7 manufacturing operation through a rotating off-hours call schedule.

Key Responsibilities

Lead process improvement initiatives that increase yield, production rate and machine availability, improving overall equipment efficiency (OEE).
Respond to production and process upsets, diagnose root causes and implement corrective actions to restore operations.
Manage capital and non-capital projects from concept through implementation, including scope, equipment specifications, design of experiments (DOE) and validation protocols.
Apply Six Sigma and statistical process control (SPC) tools to build robust, standardized processes.
Maintain compliance with site quality systems through change control, documentation, audits and corrective actions, and train operations and maintenance teams on processes and equipment.

Required Qualifications

Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Plastics or Materials Science, or a related discipline
0-2+ years of experience in an engineering or technical role in a manufacturing or R&D environment
Availability to participate in a rotating off-hours call schedule and to flex working hours as business needs require

Desired Qualifications

Master's degree in a related engineering or materials discipline
Experience with injection molding or extrusion processes
Experience using Six Sigma tools such as process capability studies, SPC and measurement systems analysis
Experience planning DOEs and writing or executing validation protocols
Familiarity with quality and regulatory standards such as ISO 9001, ISO 13485, 21 CFR Part 820, good manufacturing practice (GMP) and OSHA

This position does not support immigration sponsorship.

The range for this position is $70,776.00 - $97,317.00 assuming full time status. Starting pay for the successful applicant is dependent on a variety of job-related factors, including but not limited to geographic location, market demands, experience, training, and education.

A job that shapes a life.
