Polymer materials consultant vs material engineer

Differences between polymer materials consultant and material engineer duties and responsibilities

Polymer materials consultant example responsibilities.

• Achieve completion date of turn over packages set by the FDA for validation of the critical systems which are previously noncompliant.
• Establish procedures that manage critical factors such as moisture sensitivity, electrostatic discharge, storeroom temperature and FIFO inventory staging system.
• Work in high-performance work system (HPWS) environment.
• Investigate various methods for processing ion exchange polymers and coacervates, including extrusion and crosslinking.
• Develop novel formulation and processing technologies resulting in IP filings, presentations at scientific conferences, and publication in peer-review journal.
• Execute program/project management functions in accordance with KPI's and communicate to higher corporate organizational levels.

Material engineer example responsibilities.

• Manage and successfully complete carbon/epoxy material qualification and gain approval from FAA to use in manufacturing of composite aircraft parts.
• Position entails ownership of machinery and equipment performance used to produce supply for aluminum aerospace and automotive components.
• Determine processing for titanium bloom and slab.
• Perform QC checks throughout the process to continually improve.
• Oversee chemistry adjustment of molten before pouring into the molds.
• Evaluate material microstructure, chemistry makeup, and stress/strain properties.
