Job description

Glacier Federal, LLC is a government consulting and contracting firm supporting missions throughout the world. Glacier Federal is seeking a Research Scientist to provide onsite research support to our customer Natick, Massachusetts. This position evaluates the thermal performance of Arctic and cold-weather personal protective equipment, with an emphasis on military boots, socks, footwear liners, and related materials, to improve protection against frostbite and other cold injuries.
What You'll Do
  • Develop and execute research plans evaluating cold-weather PPE and footwear using whole-body and sectional heated thermal manikins.
  • Independently operate, calibrate, troubleshoot, and maintain thermal manikins, including systems comparable to Thermetrics ANDI and sectional hand or foot manikins.
  • Analyze thermal-performance data and develop algorithms that predict footwear insulation using manikin results and material properties.
  • Conduct scientific literature reviews related to footwear, cold-weather protection, frostbite, heat transfer, and textile performance.
  • Evaluate how socks, liners, and other materials affect footwear performance and support the selection and procurement of military and commercial Arctic PPE research references.
  • Support human-subject research examining physiological responses to boot and sock systems in Arctic or simulated-Arctic environments.
  • Document research methods, activities, results, and progress in accordance with USARIEM procedures and contract requirements.
  • Collaborate with Government scientists, engineers, research personnel, and multidisciplinary laboratory teams; occasional authorized CONUS travel may be required.

What You Bring
  • Master's degree in textile science or textile engineering.
  • Extensive hands-on experience independently operating whole-body and sectional thermal manikins with minimal technical guidance.
  • Knowledge of heat transfer, thermodynamics, and the thermal performance of textiles and clothing.
  • Strong scientific documentation, data-analysis, research-planning, organizational, and communication skills.
  • Interest or experience in physiology, human science, biomedical engineering, or human-clothing interactions.
  • Experience with manikin calibration and maintenance; mathematical or thermal modeling; human-subject research; cold-weather PPE or footwear testing; environmental physiology; or military research laboratories is preferred.
  • U.S. citizenship and the ability to obtain and maintain a favorably adjudicated Tier 1 background investigation, installation access, and a Common Access Card if required.
  • Ability to work onsite Monday through Friday, including core hours of 9:00 a.m.-3:00 p.m., and complete required Government safety, security, privacy, and laboratory training.

What We Offer
Glacier Federal, LLC offers a competitive benefits package that includes paid holidays; paid time off, including sick and vacation leave; medical, dental, and vision insurance; flexible spending accounts; short- and long-term disability coverage; company-paid life insurance; a 401(k) plan with company match and discretionary profit sharing; and tuition reimbursement.
