For our material and testing department, we are hiring a Material Engineer with expertise in testing and characterization of polymeric materials. You will work with and run your own development projects targeting qualification of new polymer-based materials and components. Central in these qualifications is long-term ageing tests in relevant offshore and oil producing environments where mechanical testing and thermal analysis such as DSC or DMA are used for characterization. You will also be highly involved in defining technical scope and manage progress of such development projects. Finally, you will support the rest of the organization on technical issues related to your field of expertise within polymeric materials. You will have close contact to our internal qualification laboratories, manufacturing sites in Denmark and Brazil but also with 3rd validation party, suppliers and customers.
Most testing will be performed at our in-house state-of-the-art-material qualification laboratory. As part of your work you should expect some travel activity (up to 10 days/year) but will for the most part take place at our headquarter in Brøndby.
