We're hiring an Applications Engineer to be part of that.

The work

• Work directly with customers to understand what they're building and translate it into a design that works
• Perform the structural and load calculations behind it
• Interpret test data from our lab and make the design call
• Lead or contribute to new product development. We're actively adding product lines
• Produce engineering drawings, BOMs, and reports
• Present designs and proposals to customers. Travel up to 10%
• Work with sales and operations so what we quote is what we ship

What We're Looking For

• BS in Engineering
• 3+ years as an applications, sales, product, or design engineer at a manufacturer

Using proprietary processes and several patented inventions, GEOTEK manufactures and distributes engineered fiberglass composites that are used by the transmission and distribution power lines and substations.
