The position offers comprehensive local training on internal testing procedures and provides a long-term growth path alongside experienced industry experts.

Responsibilities

  • Create technical work orders and testing instructions by interpreting customer purchase orders, engineering drawings, and regulatory specifications

  • Perform microscopic and macroscopic evaluations of material microstructures and evaluate components for failure analysis.
  • Analyze test data against governing customer and industry specifications to generate accurate, formal certification reports.
  • Communicate directly with customers regarding test status, data interpretation, and final report deliverables.
  • Maintain a clean, safe, and efficient laboratory environment while managing multiple processing jobs simultaneously in a fast-paced setting.

Requirements

  • Bachelor’s Degree in Materials Engineering, Metallurgical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Chemical Engineering, or Physics.
  • Demonstrated foundational knowledge of materials science, metallic structures, and physical property evaluation.
  • Exceptional attention to detail and strong written communication skills for creating accurate technical reports.
  • A curious, highly adaptable, and learning-oriented mindset with a genuine drive to master specialized testing methods.
  • Ability to balance hands-on laboratory sample preparation with analytical desk-based reporting.
  • Proficiency with standard computer applications, including Microsoft Office
  • Must be locally based or willing to commute to a facility located south of Dayton.

Preferred Requirements

  • Prior laboratory experience from academic coursework, undergraduate research, or industry co-ops/internships.
  • Direct experience with metallographic sample preparation
  • Familiarity with mechanical testing equipment and microstructure image analysis software.
  • Basic exposure to failure analysis concepts and material processing methods.
  • Prior exposure to quality-regulated environments such as aerospace, automotive, mining, or industrial manufacturing.

Compensation/Benefits
