The Department of Mechanical & Industrial Engineering at Montana State University (MSU, Bozeman, Mont., U.S.) is actively seeking a full-time composite manufacturing engineer with primary responsibilities in the development of innovative carbon fiber processing technology for industrial applications.
MSU has been awarded a sizeable, multi-year Department of Defense (DOD) contract to develop stretch-broken carbon fiber for military rotorcraft. This open position would be as one of the technical team leads, executing on the contract and developing the untapped potential of this material type. Duties include: determining the best technique of stretch breaking; defining and executing basic autoclave and other processes for part manufacture; defining and executing test plans to determine the material properties of the stretch-broken fibers; assisting with the determination of suitable applications of the stretch-broken material; and manufacturing prototypes demonstrating the benefits of stretch-broken carbon fiber.
