  • Selection and evaluation of curing systems, fillers, and additives for rubber compounds
  • Troubleshooting rubber molding processes (compression, transfer, injection) and resolving compound-related defects
  • Supplier selection participation (in-house or out)
  • Prototyping Testing against requirements (thermal analysis, mechanical analysis and chemical analysis)
  • Solving design problems
  • Scrutiny and review of detailed cost estimates
  • Leading a design review to assure customer and performance requirements
