It's exciting to work for a company that makes the world measurably better. We're committed to safety, quality, and customer focus in advanced ceramics manufacturing.

Support research in materials application and macrostructure design through computer modeling. Collaborate with teams to discover structure-process-property correlations and apply engineering principles to meet material-design requirements. Provide support in material selection and design to meet product development goals.

• Assist in performing computational modeling, such as finite element analysis and fluid dynamics, to evaluate material and system performance.
• Work with materials such as metals, ceramics, plastics, and composites to address design requirements.
• Analyze test results and apply findings to improve materials or product designs.
• Support development of new products by applying engineering knowledge and expanding tool usage.
• Investigate designs to improve performance, optimize processes, or solve technical problems.
• Collaborate with senior engineers and team members to address customer concerns and contribute to product/process development and improvement.
• May conduct research to validate simulation models.

• Education:
  
  Master’s degree in Materials Science, Ceramics, Mechanical Engineering or related field with 1-5 years of materials or mechanical engineering combined with simulation experience.
• Experience:
  
  Numerical modeling in predicting/measuring mechanical performance, distortion, and stresses as a function of temperature in complex structures; modeling mass transport in chemical reactors preferred. 1-5 years of experience with ANSYS Finite Element Analysis and/or Fluent (preferred) or similar (Abaqus, COMSOL) and CAD such as Solid Works.
• Technical
