Senior Materials & Process Engineer – New Glenn

Role Overview

• Evaluate and select metallic materials for usage in liquid fuel rockets, taking into consideration mechanical properties, thermal properties, and environmental factors.
• Collaborate with design, analysis and manufacturing teams to integrate material and process requirements into the system design.
• Ensure specialized processes used in the manufacture of hardware have sufficient process controls to ensure a repeatable process.
• Act as Materials & Processes signatory for engineering drawings.
• Perform development and qualification testing for metallic materials to ensure performance under engine induced and external environmental requirements.
• Generate documentation for metallic material and process specifications to ensure adequate process control while optimizing for producibility.
• Provide technical support and disposition of nonconformance's from the application of material and/or process control requirements implementation.
