Proven to Perform. From the edges of space to the bottoms of ocean, our materials are proven to perform -- and so is our team. We're hiring high performers as proven as our products. Join us. R&D Engineer – Alloy & Process Innovation. Design the Future of Performance Materials – With ATI R&D. At ATI, we push the boundaries of what’s possible in metal performance. From jet engines that burn hotter to medical implants that heal faster, our materials serve mission-critical industries where failure is not an option. As an R&D Engineer, you’ll sit at the intersection of metallurgy, manufacturing, and innovation—designing new alloys, refining advanced processes, and building the technical foundation for ATI’s next generation of products. Your curiosity will fuel performance breakthroughs. Your rigor will shape high-stakes applications in aerospace, defense, and energy. Your work will matter.
Job Responsibility:
Lead alloy and process development projects, focusing on Ni-, Ti-, Co-, or Fe-based systems, powder metallurgy, or additive manufacturing (AM)
Develop and implement experimental plans for materials testing, process trials, or property optimization
Analyze microstructure, phase transformation, and mechanical behavior using SEM, EBSD, XRD, or thermal analysis techniques
Collaborate with Technology, Product Engineering, and Operations to scale lab-to-plant transitions and support new product introductions
Present findings in internal reviews, customer briefings, and industry conferences
Draft technical reports, white papers, and R&D proposals that demonstrate ATI’s metallurgical leadership
Contribute to patent filings, IP development, and competitive technical benchmarking
Requirements:
M.S. or Ph.D. in Materials Science, Metallurgical Engineering, or related discipline
0–6 years of industrial or academic research experience (co-op/internship/postdoc included)
Demonstrated background in one or more of the following: Alloy development (Ni-based superalloys, Ti alloys, steels)
Advanced remelting (VIM, VAR, ESR, PAM)
Powder metallurgy or AM technologies
Microstructural characterization and property analysis
Nice to have:
Experience with thermodynamic modeling (Thermo-Calc, Pandat), finite element analysis, or process simulation tools
Knowledge of heat treatment effects, creep/fatigue behavior, or corrosion performance
Track record of publishing, presenting, or contributing to technical standards or patents
Familiarity with manufacturing scale-up, root cause investigations, or customer-driven development
