The University of Strathclyde is a leading international technological institution and has a long history of working with industry to deliver strong business growth from access to research and innovation expertise. The latest major initiative continuing to deliver on this track record is through the National Manufacturing Institute Scotland (NMIS).
As a magnet for innovation in advanced manufacturing, the National Manufacturing Institute Scotland (NMIS) group of specialist R&D centres, supports manufacturing, engineering and associated tech businesses of all sizes, to thrive domestically and internationally through accelerating productivity, embracing new digital technologies and achieving net-zero targets.
We turn smart ideas into reality and deliver ground-breaking research.
Coming from diverse backgrounds and disciplines, our passionate team works alongside industry, academia, and the public sector to solve problems, train the workforce of the future and generate the creative ideas that will transform manufacturing.
Ultimately, we are growing the economy, developing a vibrant and skilled talent pool and helping create prosperous, sustainable communities.
To achieve the above the manufacturing engineer will have some experience in at least two of the following technical areas:
• Techniques of materials characterisation e.g. SEM, EDX, WDS, EBSD, optical microscopy.
• Mechanical Testing (tensile testing, compression testing, fatigue testing, hardness testing, charpy impact test etc.)
• Knowledge of residual stress measurement techniques such as incremental hole drilling measurement using strain gauges or interferometry, x-ray diffraction, ultrasounds for residual stress determination, the contour measurement method, or the slitting method.
• Adherence to quality standards such as ISO 17025 and ISO 9001 as well as quality systems for the management and operation of labs.
• Health and safety procedures in the workplace.
The post holder will require the knowledge, skills and experience normally associated with a first degree and PhD for example in Materials Science, Materials Engineering or Mechanical Engineering; we are also interested in candidates with equivalent industrial experience.
To be considered for this role, you will be educated to a minimum PhD level in an appropriate discipline or be educated to a minimum of 2:1 Honors degree in addition to significant relevant experience within a relevant industrial environment.
The post holder will also have the ability to work autonomously, plan and prioritise their own workload, and lab workload, and deal with complex problems presented to them by colleagues. Preferably, the individual will have experience of planning and delivery, as well as excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with a proven ability to interact with a range of stakeholders from industry and/or academia. Lastly, the post holder may be required to make a contribution to the administrative activities of the AFRC including membership of relevant committees. You will have an established track record in providing engineering solutions in an industrial context as well as experience of supporting research and development of manufacturing processes. You will have excellent troubleshooting skills, including a methodical approach to solve complex problems and you will have the ability to work as part of a multi-disciplinary team.
