- Familiarity with metallurgical joining processes (brazing, welding, friction stir).
- Experience with robust manufacturing quality systems and qualification processes (PFMEA, lean manufacturing).
- Experience in conducting and understanding standard mechanical property testing.
- Resilient in the context of a fast-paced and fluid environment (scrappy).
- Detailed-oriented, able to work both independently and in a collaborative project-focused environment, prompt and dependable.
- The ideal candidate will be able to provide specific examples of evaluations performed that not only demonstrate an ability to follow standards, but also the ability to obtain a deep understanding of the functional requirements of the property evaluated using a first principles approach.
