Materials development engineer vs ceramic research engineer

Differences between materials development engineer and ceramic research engineer duties and responsibilities

Materials development engineer example responsibilities.

• Manage and successfully complete carbon/epoxy material qualification and gain approval from FAA to use in manufacturing of composite aircraft parts.
• Evaluate epoxy formulations and adhesive tapes used to encapsulate all plastic film capacitors, including UL and ASTM material/flammability testing.
• Develop basic extrusion procedures and temperature profiles for polyurethane extrusion.
• Optimize polymer extrusion processes from development to implementation to the plant floor to product commercialization and subsequent continual improvement.
• Provide production support including developing LabVIEW base testing system, working procedure analysis/optimization and documentation, assembler training and equipment trouble-shooting.
• Synthesize cobalt nanoparticles and evaluate the tuning of magnetic properties for applications in biomedicine and data storage.

Ceramic research engineer example responsibilities.

• Lead extrusion billet design and specification of hot-and-cold work tooling for press-and-draw bench use.
• Perform safety training as well as maintained programs and MSDS.
• Conduct safety meetings with employees and maintain and update MSDS sheets.
• Conduct material analysis techniques using SEM, TGA, XRF, and optical microscopy.
• Work with UL to gain a license to sell Lenox lamps with this interior light.
• Design of custom components in SolidWorks
