- Design, optimization and scale-up of ceramics & glasses for GE products for application in energy, renewables & energy storage, transportation, healthcare & water markets.
- Use experimental methods to understand processing-microstructure-property relationships and how these apply to the structural ceramics coatings.
- Work with global research teams to understand their capabilities and bring them to bear to solve problems for the business.
- Build research programs by working with GE businesses to identify opportunities.
- Draw up technology road maps for the growth of ceramic processing and coatings technologies for GE.
- Formulate research objectives and action plans to address the needs of GE businesses.
- Provide mentorship to scientists, research associates and support staff.
Qualifications/Requirements:
- Ph.D .in materials science or ceramics, with a strong PhD thesis work in structural, glass or functional ceramics.
- A minimum of 5 years of post-PhD work experience in an academic or industrial research environment.
- Solid experience in project management and leading cross functional teams
- Ability to develop and execute designed experimental methods to understand processing, structure-property relationships in materials systems
- Good understanding of structural ceramics, & application of ceramic materials
- Good understanding of ceramic processing methods
- Strong basics in processing-structure-property relationships demonstrated through course work, relevant projects and publications and/or patents.
- Strong global communication skills
