  • Conduct research on new materials, fabrication techniques, and potential applications for composites in the industry.
  • Experiment with advanced composites and nanomaterials to improve product performance and reduce weight.
  • Explore automation and digital technologies, such as additive manufacturing and robotics, in composite manufacturing.

Compliance and Safety

  • Ensure that all composite materials and processes comply with industry regulations and safety standards.
  • Develop and implement health and safety procedures related to the handling and processing of composite materials.
  • Ensure that the manufacturing processes adhere to environmental regulations and sustainability initiatives.

Requirements:

  • Indepth knowledge of composite materials and processes, such as resin infusion, vacuum bagging, prepreg, and autoclaving.
  • Proficiency in CAD software, such as CATIA and SolidWorks, and simulation tools, such as FEA.
  • Strong understanding of manufacturing techniques, tools, and equipment for composites.
  • Excellent problem-solving skills with the ability to troubleshoot production issues.
  • Knowledge of industry standards, such as AS9100 and ISO 9001, and compliance regulations.
  • Strong project management skills and the ability to work collaboratively in a team.

Qualifications:

  • Bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering, aerospace engineering, materials science, manufacturing engineering, or a related field.
  • Master's degree or Ph.D. in a related field (optional but beneficial for advanced roles and R&D positions).
