Welding engineer vs materials development engineer

Differences between welding engineer and materials development engineer duties and responsibilities

Welding engineer example responsibilities.

• Manage CWI's to ensure interpretations and directions are follow consistently.
• Lead extrusion billet design and specification of hot-and-cold work tooling for press-and-draw bench use.
• Operate and train operators on multiple CNC equipment and manage all products produce by the machines.
• Manage aluminum structural/pipe fabrication turnaround: cross-country CGIT/IPB megawatt electrical power conductors.
• Manage Jenkins security by providing specific access to authorize developers/testers using project base matrix authorization strategy.
• Experience in GMAW, FCAW, SMAW, GTAW and SA welding processes.

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.
