What is an Experimental Design job?
An Experimental Design job involves planning, structuring, and analyzing experiments to ensure reliable and valid results. Professionals in this role use statistical methods to test hypotheses, optimize processes, and improve decision-making in fields such as science, engineering, and business. They design experiments to minimize bias, control variables, and maximize the accuracy of conclusions. This role is crucial in research and development, product testing, and process optimization across various industries.
What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive in the Experimental Design position, and why are they important?
To excel in Experimental Design, a professional needs a strong background in statistics, scientific methodology, and data analysis, typically supported by an advanced degree in a related field. Familiarity with statistical software (such as R, SPSS, or SAS), laboratory equipment, and protocol management systems is often required. Strong attention to detail, critical thinking, and effective communication are crucial soft skills in this position. These capabilities are vital for ensuring research integrity, reproducibility, and clear reporting of experimental outcomes.
What do you do in experimental design?
What are some common challenges faced by professionals in Experimental Design roles?
One common challenge in Experimental Design roles is ensuring that experiments are both scientifically rigorous and feasible given constraints like budget, time, or available resources. Additionally, dealing with unexpected variables or data inconsistencies can require creative problem-solving and the ability to adapt research protocols. Team collaboration is also key, as experimental designers often work closely with scientists, engineers, and statisticians to develop and refine testing procedures. By anticipating potential obstacles and communicating clearly with stakeholders, professionals in this role contribute to successful and reliable research outcomes.

Job description
About the Team:Â Â
The Materials and NDE (Non-Destructive Evaluation) team plays a central role in enabling Terran R to fly, re-fly, and scale: developing, characterizing, and inspecting materials and processes across all parts of the vehicle. From welding and additive manufacturing to advanced composites, the team works at the intersection of innovation and execution, balancing performance and reliability with cost, quality, and schedule. As we move toward first flight and beyond, the challenges become more exciting, offering opportunities to shape how we design and develop for re-use. With ownership across products, systems, and disciplines, engineers gain broad exposure and drive key decisions across design, manufacturing, and operations.
About the Role:Â
- Be the M&P owner of reusable Liquid Propulsion Turbomachinery Products, Materials Systems, and Disciplines
- Qualify turbomachinery materials and products for flight + reuse
- Develop, implement, and maintain technical specifications and engineering standards
- Drive statistically-driven experimental design and process improvement campaigns
- Interface with:
- Materials engineering staff to identify, define, and fill critical turbomachinery technology gaps
- Laboratory staff to characterize materials and processes
- Design Engineers for product materials selection, allowables development, analysis, qualification, flight, and reuse
- Manufacturing Engineers to reduce cost + rate while maintaining needed performance for turbomachinery products
- Quality assurance to facilitate specification compliance validation
- Propulsion Engineers to perform failure analysis, root cause and corrective action campaigns when turbomachinery parts fail in service
- Relativity + Customer Fracture Control Boards to achieve vehicle reuse
- Company Leadership to elevate risks and power through roadblocks
About You:Â Â
- Bachelor's degree in materials science or engineering, or related field
- 5+ years of relevant turbomachinery materials experience
- Leveling is flexible and will be adjusted for candidates with more experience
- Experience with general propulsion hardware M&P activities, such as material selection, qualification, damage tolerance, inspections, risk assessments, and failure analysis
- Experience performing material and part qualifications for either AM laser powder bed fusion systems or traditional material forming (wrought, forgings, castings)
- A core commitment to accountability, collaboration, and execution
- A desire to establish and foster strong interdisciplinary relationships across the company
- An authentic, introspective, and inclusive mindset towards technical, interpersonal, team growth, and development
- Passion to work in a fast-paced and challenging environment on constantly iterating turbomachinery products + processes, driving big impact on critical program needs as we ramp manufacturing rate + achieve reuse
Nice to haves, but not required:Â Â
- Deep understanding of turbomachinery within reusable aerospace or rocket engines and all associated materials challenges
- Expertise in nickel, ferrous, aluminum, or titanium alloy systems
- Metallic additive manufacturing M&P expertise with Laser Powder Bed Fusion (L-PBF)
- Metallic wrought, forging, or casting M&P expertise
- Metallic fusion welding M&P expertise in Laser Welding, EBW, GTAW, GMAW, etc.
- Knowledge of surface modification processes and coatings relevant to inhibit surface damage + corrosion of reusable turbomachinery parts
- Statistical experimental design and design allowable calculation methodology expertise
