Metallurgical Engineer

Role Overview: As a Metallurgical Engineer, you will be responsible for developing and formulating metallic raw materials for dies and precision tools. You will analyze and recommend alloy compositions to ensure mechanical strength, wear resistance, and corrosion performance standards are met. Collaborating with R&D and production teams, you will work on new die/tool material innovations. Conducting metallurgical failure analysis, you will suggest improvements in tool performance and durability. Additionally, you will evaluate and manage heat treatment processes, coating, and surface finishing techniques while ensuring quality compliance with ISO and industry standards for metallurgy. Working closely with vendors/suppliers, you will verify that material specs are met for procurement. Key Responsibilities: - Develop and formulate metallic raw materials for dies and precision tools - Analyze and recommend alloy compositions to meet mechanical strength, wear resistance, and corrosion performance standards - Collaborate with R&D and production teams on new material innovations - Conduct metallurgical failure analysis and suggest improvements for tool performance and durability - Evaluate and manage heat treatment processes, coating, and surface finishing techniques - Ensure quality compliance with ISO and industry standards for metallurgy - Verify material specs with vendors/suppliers for procurement Qualifications Required: - B.E./B.Tech/M.Tech in Metallurgical Engineering or Materials Science - Minimum of 3 years of experience in tool/die metallurgy or related manufacturing environment - Strong knowledge of steel grades, tool steels, powder metallurgy, and heat treatment - Hands-on experience with spectroscopy, microstructure analysis (SEM/EDX), and hardness testing - Excellent analytical, problem-solving, and cross-functional communication skills (Note: No additional details about the company were mentioned in the provided job description.),
