Applies Principles of Statistical Methods - Your ability to analyze technical data using various statistical methods will be crucial. This includes using descriptive statistics, probability distributions, graphical analysis, and statistical inference. You’ll need to model relationships between variables using techniques like analysis of variance, regression, and design of experiments to make informed, data-driven decisions.

Component Material and Process Selection - You’ll evaluate component requirements to identify the best materials and processing options. This involves selecting the appropriate manufacturing route and validating your choices through rigorous testing to ensure they meet the necessary requirements.

Material Characterization - Your role will involve interpreting mechanical, chemical, microstructural, and physical properties using laboratory equipment. You’ll need to confirm compliance with specifications and correlate these properties with field or component test results to ensure robustness. Defining the correct material characterization schedule will be essential to meet all requirements.

Problem Solving - You’ll use systematic analysis processes and industry-standard methodologies to trace problems, determine their causes, and implement robust, data-based solutions. Mentoring others in problem-solving techniques and ensuring actions are taken to prevent recurrence will also be part of your responsibilities.
