A strong theoretical and practical knowledge of polymeric materials and associated characterization techniques
Specific expertise in elastomers and rubber materials, with preferred experience in tire compounds and/or other rubber components

Experience with rubber-focused characterization and testing techniques, including rheology, DMA, fatigue and crack growth testing, abrasion and tear testing
Familiarity with rubber compounding, curing, and manufacturing processes is a plus
Excellent written and verbal communication skills
Superior problem-solving abilities
Strong educational and publication credentials
