Job description

Eaton's IS VEH Technology division is currently seeking a Materials Engineer. This is a full time, on-site position based at our Marshall, MI facility.
The Materials Engineer is a technical role combining engineering analysis, project support, and hands-on laboratory execution. The position supports product development, manufacturing, and failure analysis activities by performing metallurgical testing, interpreting results, and providing engineering recommendations.
This role bridges the gap between engineering design and laboratory execution, requiring both practical lab expertise and the ability to apply engineering principles to solve materials-related problems. The incumbent works independently and as part of cross-functional teams to support new product development, manufacturing support, quality improvement, and innovation initiatives.
The expected annual salary range for this role is $71000 - $105000 a year.
Please note the salary information shown above is a general guideline only. Salaries are based upon candidate skills, experience, and qualifications, as well as market and business considerations.
Eaton announced, on June 11, 2026, the intent to combine its Mobility Group (including both the Vehicle and eMobility segments) with a new company. We expect to complete this process by the end of the first half of 2027. The compensation and benefits that will initially be offered for this position are based on Eaton's plans, programs and practices. If you are offered and accept this position and are actively employed by the Mobility Group when the transaction closes, the new company will provide further details to employees concerning compensation and benefits at that time.
What you'll do:
  • Support materials engineering projects related to new product development, design validation, manufacturing support, and failure analysis.
  • Review test requests and develop test plans in collaboration with engineers.
  • Coordinate laboratory work within project schedules to meet engineering and program deliverables.
  • Conduct metallurgical characterization and testing, including:
    • Macro and micro photographic documentation, metallographic sample preparation, microstructure evaluation
    • Superficial, bulk, and microhardness testing, case depth determination
    • x ray fluorescence (XRF) elemental analysis
    • Carbon/Sulfur elemental analysis
  • Perform fractography and advanced analysis using optical and electron microscopes (SEM/EDX).
  • Interpret metallurgical test results and provide technical recommendations to engineers, manufacturing, and quality teams.
  • Prepare engineering reports, test summaries, and presentations to communicate results and recommendations.
  • Operate and maintain laboratory equipment such as cut off saws, mounting presses, polishers, microscopes, and hardness testers.
  • Ensure safe laboratory practices, including chemical handling, disposal, and use of safety equipment.
  • Maintain compliance with Quality, Environmental, Health, and Safety management systems

Qualifications:
Required Basic Qualifications:
  • Minimum Bachelor's Degree in Materials Science, Materials Engineering, or Metallurgical Engineering from an accredited institution and/or candidates with an anticipated graduation by 8/2026
  • Minimum one (1) year basic knowledge of ferrous metallurgy, heat treating, and/or failure analysis (accepted experience is inclusive of college courses on related topic, co-ops, internships and/or direct work experience)
  • Eaton will not consider applicants for employment immigration sponsorship or support for this position. This means that Eaton will not support any "CPT, OPT, or STEM OPT plans, F-1 to H-1B, H-1B cap registration, O-1, E-3, TN status, I-485 job portability, etc."
  • No relocation is available for this position. Candidates must reside within a 75 mile radius of Marshall, MI. (Active Duty Military service members are exempt from this geographical limitation)

Preferred Qualifications:
  • Experience in materials engineering and/or metallurgical lab environment.
  • Exposure to SEM/EDX (Scanning Electron Microscopy-Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy), fractography, or advanced materials characterization.
  • Familiarity with nondestructive testing, manufacturing environments and quality systems.

Skills:
  • Proven analytical and problem-solving skills
  • Ability to juggle multiple priorities
  • Effective oral and written communication skills as well as planning and organizational skills
  • Ability to effectively work with cross functional teams
  • Limited travel may be required for plant/supplier support
