Composites Design Engineer

**Job Summary** Design, develop, and validate molds and tooling systems used in structural composites manufacturing. Evaluate and optimize composite manufacturing processes and conduct root cause analysis and resolve development-phase manufacturing defects by applying advanced analytical and diagnostic techniques grounded in composite materials science. **Duties** * Create 3D models and engineering drawings using CAD software such as CATIA, AutoCAD, SolidWorks, Creo, or Pro/ENGINEER; apply geometric dimensioning and tolerancing (GD&T). * Perform structural analysis, finite element analysis (FEA), and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) as appropriate; support system design and requirements analysis. * Plan and support engineering development mechanical testing, data collection, and root cause analysis. * Coordinate project scheduling, requirements management, assembly, and manufacturing readiness with cross-functional teams; communicate design changes and technical findings. **Experience** * Essential: Bachelor’s degree in Materials Science, Materials Engineering, or closely related field or foreign equivalent, and one (1) year of experience in composite product structural design engineering and mold development. * Essential: Solidworks or similar CAD modeling software. Parts, assemblies, and drawings for closed mold composites. Pay: $77,938.00 per year Work Location: In person
