Silicone compound development engineer
What the role needs
- Fluent in compounding both solid silicone and liquid LSR
- Experience with high tear strength, wide temperature range, flame retardant, food-contact, medical-grade and anti-static compounds
- Modification work, milled compound and colour compound development, able to solve material fit and performance shortfalls independently
- Experience with silicone compounds for electronics composites is an advantage
Why it matters: the role owns custom compound development, new material iterations and material plans for unusual duty conditions — the technical source of a product's core performance.
