About the role

  • Research Engineer focusing on advanced design and thermomechanical modeling for aerospace systems. Joining ARCTOS Technology Solutions to drive innovative research in manufacturing technology.

Responsibilities

  • Design for Additive Manufacturing (DfAM): Research and develop methodologies for tailoring design and optimization frameworks to account for AM process-induced constraints, defects, and material anisotropy.
  • Integrate manufacturability metrics directly into the design loop to ensure optimized components are successfully produced using AM.
  • Develop, implement, and validate advanced finite element analysis (FEA) and other numerical models to predict the thermomechanical performance of materials and components.
  • Lead and contribute to applied and fundamental research projects, resulting in high-impact publications, technical reports, and technology transitions to Air Force programs.
  • Collaborate effectively with multidisciplinary teams to tackle complex engineering problems.
  • Utilize and maintain proficiency in commercial engineering mechanics and design software, developing custom software/scripts to extend capabilities.

Requirements

  • M.S. or Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Materials Science, or a closely related field
  • Proven experience in thermomechanical modeling for design, performance prediction, and manufacturing process modeling
  • Demonstrated experience with FEA and multi-physics applications
  • Specific experience with additive manufacturing processes (e.g., Powder Bed Fusion, Directed Energy Deposition)
  • Excellent organizational and time management abilities
  • Desire to work both independently and in a team environment as the project requires
  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills
  • Proven track record in conducting both applied and fundamental research, evidenced by publications, patents, or successful technology demonstrations.
  • U.S. Citizenship is required
