Metallurgist (Early Career) - Materials Testing Discipline

A Snapshot of Your Day Join our dynamic metallurgical laboratory where you deliver precise materials data through robust mechanical testing and analysis. You’ll engage across tensile, HCF, LCF, crack propagation, stress relaxation, creep, oxidation and corrosion disciplines, adapting to other methods as required. Partner with Service and Overhauls, Design Engineering, Quality, Manufacturing, and Siemens Energy worldwide to validate critical components and support fault analysis. You’ll analyse test results, compile material property data sheets, and project manage testing from inception to completion. As you build competency in high temperature techniques, you’ll contribute to future technology initiatives and grow your impact.
How You’ll Make an Impact • Provide material testing and property analysis support to Service/Overhaul and Engineering. • Conduct mechanical tests (tensile, HCF, LCF, crack propagation, stress relaxation, creep, oxidation, corrosion), analyse data, and prepare material property data sheets. • Validate critical components, assist with fault analysis, and contribute to future technology initiatives for high temperature materials. • Build competency in relevant mechanical testing methodologies and ensure rigorous, reliable results. • Project manage material testing projects end to end, collaborating with Design Engineering, Quality, Manufacturing, and Siemens Energy Worldwide.
What You Bring • A first degree in a Science/Materials discipline; preferably a Master’s in Materials/Metallurgical Engineering. • Relevant industrial experience post graduation is preferred. • Basic knowledge of gas turbine materials and material testing techniques; understanding of high temperature behaviour and degradation processes is advantageous. • Skills in mechanical testing, especially HCF, LCF and creep (hands on training provided), plus proficiency in IT, project management, and presentation. • Desirable experience in metallurgical preparation for microscopy.
About the Team Our metallurgical laboratory supports the business with precise materials data using robust mechanical testing and analysis methodologies. The team works across tensile, HCF, LCF, crack propagation, stress relaxation, creep, oxidation and corrosion disciplines, expanding to other methods as required. We collaborate closely with Service and Overhauls, Design Engineering, Quality, Manufacturing, and Siemens Energy worldwide to uphold high standards of testing and analysis. The laboratory validates critical components and assists with fault analysis for the business. We also contribute to future technology initiatives and advance materials testing methodologies, particularly for high temperature materials. In a fast paced environment, we combine analytical rigour with collaborative problem solving to deliver trusted insights. Early career colleagues receive hands on training to build competence across the testing portfolio.
