A Snapshot of Your Day (Metallurgist, TI-STG, India)

The Metallurgist – Supplier Qualification & Development will be responsible for providing technical expertise in metallurgy and materials engineering for supplier qualification, supplier development, material processing, and failure investigation within the Steam Turbine Division.

The role will work closely with suppliers, Engineering, Quality Management, Manufacturing, and the Global Supplier Qualification & Development (SQD) organization to ensure that suppliers have the required metallurgical capability, manufacturing processes, quality systems, and technical competence to consistently deliver components meeting specified requirements.

The position will also provide specialist metallurgical support for material changes, process deviations, non-conformities, and material-related failures, including root-cause investigation and material failure analysis.

Key Responsibilities

• Act as the technical metallurgical expert for supplier qualification and development activities for Steam Turbine components.
• Assess and qualify suppliers based on their capabilities in material selection, manufacturing processes, process controls, testing, inspection, and metallurgical quality.
• Conduct technical discussions and assessments with suppliers to evaluate their manufacturing and metallurgical capabilities.
• Support supplier audits and qualification activities, including review of process routes, manufacturing controls, inspection plans, testing facilities, and quality records.
• Identify technical gaps at suppliers and develop improvement plans in coordination with suppliers and the Global SQD organization.
• Work closely with Global SQD teams to align supplier qualification methodology, technical requirements, and development activities.
• Monitor supplier development actions and provide technical guidance to achieve the required quality and process capability.
• Support qualification of new suppliers, new manufacturing routes, and alternate sources for critical Steam Turbine components.

2. Metallurgical & Materials Engineering Support

• Provide metallurgical expertise to Engineering and Quality Management teams on material-related technical issues.
• Review and assess proposed material changes, material substitutions, manufacturing process changes, and deviations.
• Evaluate the metallurgical impact of deviations in processes such as: Forging, Rolling, Heat treatment, Coating, Machining and associated thermal/mechanical processes
• Review material certificates, heat-treatment records, metallurgical test reports, mechanical properties, microstructures, and other relevant technical documentation.
• Provide technical recommendations based on applicable material specifications, standards, drawings, and customer requirements.
• Support technical disposition of material and process-related non-conformities in collaboration with Engineering and Quality teams.
• Play a key technical role in material failure investigations involving Steam Turbine components.
• Lead or support root-cause investigations related to material, manufacturing process, heat treatment, coating, and supplier-related failures.
• Conduct detailed material failure analysis.
• Coordinate metallurgical investigations using techniques such as optical microscopy, SEM/EDS, hardness testing, chemical analysis, fractography, and other appropriate laboratory methods.
• Establish root causes and contributing factors and recommend corrective and preventive actions.
• Provide technical inputs for failure-analysis reports and communicate findings to Engineering, Quality, Manufacturing, suppliers, and other stakeholders.

4. Process & Manufacturing Expertise

• Provide technical guidance on metallurgical aspects of rolling, forging, heat treatment, and coating processes.
• Evaluate supplier manufacturing processes for process robustness, repeatability, and compliance with technical specifications.
• Review process qualification and validation documentation.
• Support development and optimization of special processes and associated control parameters.
• Identify potential metallurgical risks during supplier development and new product introduction.

5. Cross-Functional Collaboration

• Collaborate closely with cross functional team.
• Participate in technical reviews, supplier meetings, design reviews, non-conformance reviews, and failure-analysis meetings.
• Translate metallurgical requirements into practical supplier process and quality requirements.
• Support knowledge sharing and development of metallurgical best practices across the organization.
