Test engineer - composite material
France
fulltime
Developed test protocols, both for material or part prototypes characterisation. → Defined test programs → Supervised parts production and control before test campaign → Supervised the tests → Analysed results • Managed R&D project : planification, deliverable completion, resource and risk manage- ment, with deadline compliance
Thales
2013-09 - 2018-08
Materials engineer
France
fulltime
Performed material failure root cause analysis on composite material, plastic parts or electronic systems integrating those materials: → Managed or took part in failure investigations, mostly within interdisciplinary teams → Used methods such as 8D analysis, Ishikawa diagram to define potential failure root cause → Defined test protocols to validate failure root cause hypothesis → Supervised tests and analysed results → Performed production controls (at supplier’s locations) when necessary → Identified replacement solutions according to costs, performances and deadline targets • Responsible for the composite materials roadmap → Performed active technology watch by taking part of numerous of international tradeshows, conferences and by studying scientific publication in our field of interests → Defined new technologies of interest for our applications → Defined development program to get the technologies ready for our applications accord- ing to our milestones • Managed innovation and new technologies development projects with budgets up to 250k€. Following the composite materials road map, I was responsible for developing further an identified technology of interest: → Defined prototype → Assisted the prototype production → Defined, performed, and analysed test results
