Conduct mechanical, impact, pressure, leak and environmental testing on composite components
and validate strain gauges and carry out material characterisation (e.g. fibre volume fraction, void content, Tg)
Collaborate with engineers to develop and maintain test procedures, work instructions and best practices
Operate, troubleshoot and maintain manufacturing and test equipment, ensuring compliance with safety, COSHH and 5S standards
Proactively identify hazards and support a strong health, safety and housekeeping culture
