College Station, Texas, United States Penn State University Full time
Job Description

We are seeking a highly skilled and experienced Research Leader in Materials Science and Engineering to join our team at Penn State University's Applied Research Laboratory (ARL). The successful candidate will lead initiatives in materials and structures for extreme environments, with a focus on hypersonic materials and related systems.

Key Responsibilities
  • Serve as a technical and programmatic liaison to engineers and scientists in the Materials and Manufacturing Office (MMO) who are leaders in related fields such as additive and advanced manufacturing, refractory materials, optical materials, thermal barrier coatings, functionally graded materials, advanced design, analysis and topology optimization, and testing and characterization.
  • Collaborate with Penn State academic faculty and students from Materials Science and Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Engineering Science, and Mechanical Engineering, as well as researchers from Penn State's Materials Research Institute.
  • Build and execute a technology engagement roadmap that leverages the deep strengths of ARL and Penn State researchers and facilities, while addressing the current and emerging needs of Government sponsors in the hypersonic community.
  • Using a systems engineering approach, create a vision and strategy for addressing hypersonic technology challenges such as thermal management, computing and communications in extreme environments, reliability, and affordability.
  • Build multi-disciplinary teams to address these problems, lead proposal development, and manage the execution of programs; from concept exploration, though modeling, design, prototype fabrication, and testing.
Requirements
  • An understanding of the materials and structures challenges imposed by hypersonic and other extreme environments, and the ability to lead teams developing innovative material and system solutions to these challenges.
  • Demonstrated experience in interdisciplinary program development.
  • Deep experience with sponsoring offices, emerging platforms, research organizations, and industrial partners.
  • Current eligibility for access to classified information at the Secret level or higher; may be subject to a government background investigation to upgrade clearance eligibility.
Preferred Skills
  • Active TS/SCI clearance.
Work Environment

The primary location for this position will be on-site in State College, PA; however, consideration will be made for candidates that prefer a remote position, with preference to those in the Washington, DC Capital Region.
