Your Tasks

Selection, development and qualification of new materials (metals, composites and hybrids) and surface treatments for demanding aerospace and defence components
Preparation of technical specifications and process documentation, e.g. delivery specifications for forged parts, heat treatment, surface treatment, cleaning, material data sheets and qualification reports
Identification, evaluation and implementation of process optimisations in heat treatment and surface treatment processes for series-production components
Planning, definition and execution of complex mechanical material tests, in particular fracture toughness tests (e.g. KIc, J-integral method), fatigue tests and LCF
Evaluation, interpretation and documentation of test results
Ensuring quality standards are met and further developing processes and verification methods
Actively contributing to the modernisation, digitalisation and expansion of testing procedures and workflows for internal and external customers
Analysing and resolving complex material and process deviations in development and production
Active involvement in the modernisation and digitalisation of development and production processes, including data management and process automation
Identification, evaluation and implementation of process optimisations in heat treatment and surface treatment processes for series-production components
Carrying out and supervising surface analyses on large components, including the use of mobile measurement systems
Working closely with design, engineering, quality assurance and external partners
Actively networking within the M&P sector (industry, research, suppliers) and driving the adoption of new technologies
Contributing to a more efficient organisation through pragmatic and product-oriented solutions

Your Qualifications

A degree in Materials Science, Materials Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering or a comparable discipline
In-depth knowledge of surface technology, particularly in the cleaning, pre-treatment and coating of metallic materials, as well as in the evaluation and qualification of relevant processes
Experience in the field of Materials & Processes or materials-related product development, ideally in the aerospace, defence or high-performance industries
In-depth knowledge of metallic materials and the relevant manufacturing and production processes (e.g. Al, Ti, steels, superalloys)
In-depth knowledge of mechanical materials testing, ideally with experience in fracture mechanics and testing under extreme temperature conditions
Practical experience with heat treatments, furnace systems and pyrometry
Practical experience in operating hydraulic testing machines (e.g. Instron, Zwick/Roell, MTS)
Experience with qualification and validation processes in accordance with relevant standards (e.g. ECSS, MIL-STD)
A strong affinity for digitalised development processes, data management and workflow automation
A pragmatic and efficient approach to work – solution-oriented, hands-on and goal-oriented
Innovative thinking and the ability to implement new technologies and processes
A product-oriented mindset with an understanding of manufacturing, industrialisation and the supply chain
Very good command of German and English
