Job Description

Albany Engineered Composites, Inc. (AEC) designs, develops, and manufactures advanced composite components. Our core strength is our ability to produce highly customized, complex composite parts, with a focus on AEC's unique 3D reinforced composite technology.  Our products often enable our customers to use lightweight, high-performance composites in applications where they previously have been unable to because of complex performance or geometry needs. For example, we help customers in aerospace and transportation replace heavier metallic components with highly durable, lightweight composite components to reduce weight and improve fuel efciency.

AEC manufactured composite fan blades and cases are used exclusively in Leading Edge Aviation Propulsion (LEAP) engines, which power the Boeing 737-MAX and Airbus A320neo aircraft. The F-35 Joint Strike Fighter uses more than 200 AEC manufactured parts across all variants of the aircraft.
