About this role

Advanced Engineer, Materials Science Austin, Texas Hyliion is committed to creating innovative solutions that enable clean, flexible and affordable electricity production. The Company's primary focus is to develop distributed power generators that can operate on various fuel sources to future-proof against an ever-changing energy economy. This Advanced Materials Science Engineer supports the materials backbone of the KARNO Power Module, developing, testing, and qualifying the advanced metallic alloys that keep the system running cleanly and efficiently. You'll dive into how these materials behave under extreme heat, high loads, and rapid cycling, then turn that insight into practical design guidance, additive manufacturing parameters, and durability improvements that directly influence engine performance. Day-to-day, you'll work closely with the KARNO engineering teams - mechanical, thermal, design, and additive - to evaluate new alloys, validate new processes, and help build Hyliion's internal additive materials program from the ground up. If you're energized by pushing high-temperature metals to their limits and shaping how next-generation power hardware is engineered, you'll have a big impact here. Duties and Responsibilities: Material Selection, Qualification & Behavior Lead the evaluation and down-selection of high-temperature alloys, stainless steels, ceramics, coatings, and composites for critical KARNO components. Define material requirements based on thermal, mechanical, oxidation, and fatigue loads. Conduct microstructural and mechanical characterization to confirm performance against lifecycle and durability targets. Testing, Characterization & Analysis Plan and execute material tests including tensile, creep, fatigue, thermal cycling, hardness, and corrosion/oxidation evaluations. Use metallography, SEM/EDS, and other microstructural methods to understand material behavior and property
