  • Develop new alloys or improve existing alloys to meet evolving customer needs and regulatory requirements.
  • Process daily orders to ensure correct alloy selection and heat treatment requirements.
  • Analyze returned parts for metallurgical causes related to performance issues such as service life, corrosion resistance, machinability, weldability, and other properties.
  • Advise current and prospective customers on alloys produced by Waukesha Foundry, with a particular emphasis on anti-galling alloys (nickel-based and copper-based).
  • Respond to customer inquiries regarding alloy performance attributes including strength, corrosion resistance, machinability, weldability, and occasionally pricing considerations.
  • Ensure compliance with industry standards (ASTM, ISO, ASME, SAE, etc.)

  • Assist with supplier qualification and material audits as needed

EDUCATION AND EXPERIENCE REQUIREMENTS:
