Metallurgical Researcher

Metallurgical Researcher
On site, near Gedera, close to highway 6

Description
The Metallurgical Researcher will join the effort to understand and control the microstructure of the workpiece, the thermal treatment of the casted part in order to achieve the optimal quality and the highest mechanical properties of the digitally cast part. All activities take place in an interdisciplinary environment along with scientists, engineers, and professionals from various fields working together.

Duties and Responsibilities:

· Developing a comprehensive and in-depth understanding of the
metallurgical challenges in the company’s core technologies.

· Proposing novel ideas and solutions for the metallurgical challenges,
then bringing them to a sufficient maturity level for engineering
development.

· Designing, performing, and analyzing experiments to improve the part
quality and system performance.

Working with development, integration, and application professionals to solve problems

Qualification:
· PhD in materials science with more than 3 yrs. of proven experience as
a metallurgist or MSc . in materials science with more than 5 yrs. of
proven experience in the metallurgy of metal additive manufacturing.

· Knowledge in Materials science simulation software, for example:
MAGMASoft, ProCAST, Thermo-Calc, JMatPro, MatCalc, and TC-
PRISMA.

· Open-minded, self-driven, independent, delivery-oriented.

· Hands-on laboratory experience.

· Strong interrelationship capabilities.

· Innovating and out-of-the-box thinking, approved patents is an
advantage.
