This role will lead formulation of printable energetic materials, focusing on binder chemistry, rheology, curing, and energetic performance for extrusion or hybrid additive processes.​

​

Key Responsibilities​

• Develop printable propellant formulations (AP/HTPB, GAP, or alternativebinders) ​


• Engineer rheology for extrusion, DIW (Direct Ink Writing), or hybrid AMprocesses ​


• Formulate metalized systems (Al, boron) compatible with printing ​


• Optimize viscosity, cure kinetics, and green strength ​


• Define safe handling, mixing, and printing protocols for energeticmaterials ​


• Conduct small-batch mixing, casting, and printed sample evaluation ​


• Perform burn rate characterization, strand burner testing, andmechanical testing ​


• Collaborate with mechatronics engineer to co-design material + printer architecture ​


• Support scaling from lab-scale to prototype produ...
