Senior Engineer - Formability at Novelis in Kennesaw, GA
Position Overview As a member of the Formability Cluster, the Senior Engineer - Formability will play an instrumental role in advancing the formability expertise of Novelis. The Senior Engineer will work closely with Engineers and Scientists within the Formability Cluster to develop new mechanical testing and characterization tools and implement advanced data analysis techniques. Opportunities exist to leverage current state-of-the-art testing equipment to probe the effects of strain, strain rate, and temperature on the formability of aluminum alloys and to develop bespoke equipment. The developed testing and analysis techniques will be instrumental tools used to better understand the performance of current alloys, inform future alloy design, and aid our customers in fully utilizing our material's potential. In addition to the Formability Cluster, the Senior Engineer will work closely with a team of Global R&D Engineers and Scientists to solve problems across all Novelis value streams (can, auto, aerospace, and specialties) and develop a deeper core knowledge. Opportunities exist to manage projects, interface with external customers and partners, travel to Global Novelis sites, and disseminate findings in peer-reviewed journals and at international conferences. Applicants should be able to deliver on-time results in a fast-paced research and development environment. Self-starter candidates with demonstrated hands-on experience are highly sought.
