About The Role

Join a global team at the cutting edge of advanced materials and energy innovation, where you’ll help develop next-generation ceramic and coating technologies for gas turbines and beyond. In this high-impact role, you’ll collaborate across engineering, manufacturing, and global suppliers to turn breakthrough ideas into real-world solutions—driving projects from concept through production while shaping the future of sustainable energy.

How You’ll Make An Impact

  • Innovate boldly by advancing next-gen ceramic and coating technologies that boost turbine performance and support the energy transition
  • Own the full lifecycle from concept and R&D through qualification, industrialization, and production deployment
  • Collaborate globally with cross-functional teams and external partners to turn breakthrough ideas into scalable solutions
  • Enable funding impact by identifying and leveraging public funding to accelerate high-value R&D initiatives
  • Connect the ecosystem as a key technical interface across design, manufacturing, quality, procurement, and marketing
  • Lead with execution by driving projects forward, aligning stakeholders, and delivering real-world, high-performance results

What You Bring

  • Bachelor’s degree required in Industrial Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Natural Sciences, or a related field
  • 3–5+ years of hands-on experience in ceramics and coating technologies (higher experience may be considered for advanced roles)
  • Technical expertise preferred in high-temperature ceramic coatings, corrosion coatings, thermal barrier coatings, or thermal spray processes
  • Solid understanding of project management practices, with experience in PLM tools and methodologies
  • Strong problem-solving mindset with the ability to translate technical knowledge into practical applications
  • Willingness to travel up to 20% domestically and internationally to support projects and collaboration
  • Applicants must be legally authorized for employment in the United States without need for current or future employer-sponsored work authorization. Siemens Energy employees with current visa sponsorship may be eligible for internal transfers.
