Job Description
A Snapshot of Your Day Join us at the cutting edge of gas turbine innovation, where advanced ceramic materials meet real-world performance. In this hands-on role, you'll develop and optimize high-temperature ceramics, fine-tuning processes like injection molding, slip casting, and sintering to push the limits of durability and precision. You'll lead experiments, collaborate with cross-functional teams, and tackle scale-up challenges head-on helping transform breakthrough materials into production-ready solutions. From pilot runs to full industrialization, you'll play a key role in ensuring quality, solving complex problems, and driving next-generation manufacturing forward! How You'll Make an Impact Develop and refine advanced ceramic materials and feedstocks for high-performance gas turbine components Optimize core manufacturing processes including injection molding, slip casting, debinding, and sintering Plan and execute experimental trials to analyze material behavior and improve process outcomes Collaborate with design and manufacturing teams to enhance critical-to-work features and overall product performance Support pilot builds and small-series production to ensure process stability, dimensional accuracy, and quality compliance Drive scale-up and industrialization efforts, solving production challenges while implementing effective root-cause and corrective actions What You Bring Bachelor's or Master's degree in Ceramics, Materials Science, Materials Engineering, Chemical Engineering, or a related discipline 5-8+ years hands-on experience with ceramic manufacturing processes like injection molding, casting, forming, and sintering. More years of experience can be considered at a higher level. Expertise in material characterization techniques like microscopy (optical/SEM), thermal analysis (DSC, TGA, DTA), and mechanical testing Familiarity with porosity, density measurement, and advanced dimensional inspection methods (e.g., CT or 3D scanning) Technology development, pilot production, or scaling processes into industrial manufacturing environments is a plus Analytical, detail-oriented problem solver with strong communication skills and the ability to collaborate across engineering, production, and quality teams Applicants must be legally authorized for employment in the United States without need for current or future employer-sponsored work authorization. Siemens Energy employees with current visa sponsorship may be eligible for internal transfers.
