Boom Technology, Inc.
ApplyBoom is building jet engines out of high-temperature superalloys, and every material decision we make - alloy selection, heat treat verification, allowables, failure analysis on parts pulled from our own test cell - depends on data generated in a materials lab. We're standing that lab up right now: mechanical testing (tensile, LCF, HCF, creep, high-temperature), metallography, and SEM. This is your chance to be the first dedicated lab and test engineer in a brand new lab and work with world-class material scientists and engineers to create the supersonic jet engine that enables a supersonic passenger renaissance.
Create a new, state-of-the-art materials lab - this is the role you’ve been looking for.
At most places, you’ll inherit a lab with equipment other people picked and processes others defined. This is your chance to create a new lab from scratch, the way you’ve always wanted to see it done. Help spec equipment, hire lab techs, and define the way lab work gets done. You’ll select and commission the test frames, write the initial procedures, run the campaigns, reduce the data, and work directly with the design engineers to create the supersonic engine that will be part of aviation history. Come get hands on real parts from test articles that we’re running down the road, and that come back to your bench with a story to tell.
What you'll do
This job is demanding
The procedure you need won't exist yet - you'll write it. The test you're asked to run may be one the company has never performed - you'll figure out how to do it validly, prove it, and document it. The data you produce will drive decisions on engine hardware, which means your traceability and intellectual honesty have to be absolute. If a result is uncertain, we need to know that more than we need it to look good.
You probably have
It would be great if you have
Why Boom
You will be the first dedicated engineer in a materials lab that a jet engine program depends on - with scope, ownership, and mentorship from senior M&P engineers who've done this at the highest level. The lab you help build, the procedures you write, and the database you start will outlast this job posting by decades. The materials work directly and immediately contribute to American energy production and the return of supersonic passenger flight. There is no equivalent seat at an established OEM.
If building the lab - and generating the data a supersonic engine gets designed on - is the start you want for your career, apply.
