ENGINEER - RESEARCH ENGINEER - High Temperature Materials and Mechanical Testing
Location:
San Antonio, TX
Description:
Who We Are: Join our Mechanics & Materials team performing advanced materials research to solve our clients' most challenging technical problems in aerospace and high-temperature composite materials. This position will support senior staff members and ongoing programs to further understand the process-to-performance characteristics of composite materials used in high temperature aerospace applications, including hypersonic flight. The position will be highly experimental and hands-on with characterizing the mechanical performance of composite materials. Objectives of this Role: Conduct innovative material characterization and testing of high temperature composite materials by applying knowledge of material constituents, construction and fabrication, and mechanical behavior. Apply knowledge of composite material constituents, construction and fabrication, and mechanical behavior to further understand performance in applications. Provide technical support to senior staff for on-going program areas such as high temperature composite materials for aerospace applications. Understand customer requirements and develop technical solutions within budgetary and schedule constraints. Daily and Monthly Responsibilities: Performing independent hands-on work to achieve technical project objectives. Collaborating with senior staff and peers to promote, develop, and propose research programs in the area of high temperature composites to meet external client needs. Cultivating and maintaining internal and external relationships through collaboration and multidisciplinary teams to support more complete technical solutions to a wide array of client problems. Presenting research findings at conferences and client meetings. Requirements: Requires a Bachelors, Masters or a PhD in Engineering Mechanics, Materials Science and Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or a similar degree field. 0-5 years: Strong background in composite material constituents, construction and fabrication, and mechanical behavior, and a demonstrated understanding of the relationships between composite constituents and fabrication processes on the resulting mechanical properties and behavior. 0-5 years: Hands-on laboratory experience with composite material manufacturing and/or mechanical testing of composite materials. Experience designing testing hardware and fixturing, utilizing data acquisition systems, and analyzing experimental data. 0-5 years: Demonstrated ability to develop and execute experimental approaches based on a firm understanding of the mechanics of composites. 0-5 years: Must possess strong interpersonal skills and the ability to effectively communicate complex information to non-experts internally and externally. A valid/clear driver's license is required. PDN-9bc95132-747a-47bd-8cc5-ce7363c1742a
