About the Role
Safran Nacelles is seeking an experienced MRB Engineer to join our Engineering team in Burnley.
As an MRB Engineer, you will play a critical role in ensuring the airworthiness of aerospace products by analysing, categorising, and dispositioning manufacturing non-conformances. Acting as the technical bridge between Operations, Quality, Design Engineering, and Customers, you will ensure defects are resolved safely, compliantly, and within operational timescales.
This is an excellent opportunity for an aerospace engineer with strong technical judgement, structural knowledge, and problem-solving capability to work at the heart of manufacturing and product integrity.
Key Responsibilities
- Analyse and categorise manufacturing non-conformances.
- Classify non-conformances as Critical, Major, Minor, or Secondary.
- Develop and provide technically substantiated dispositions for non-conforming products.
- Liaise with Design, Quality, Manufacturing, and Customer teams to obtain approvals for major non-conformances.
- Produce and maintain accurate records of non-conformances, repairs, dispositions, and supporting stress reports.
- Support corrective actions to address product and quality system non-conformances.
- Work closely with Operations to ensure MRB cycle time targets are achieved.
- Support the development and approval of repair and rework solutions.
- Ensure all activities comply with Safran procedures and aerospace regulatory requirements.
