Computational Materials Scientist

Proven to Perform.

From the edges of space to the bottoms of ocean, our materials are proven to perform and so is our team. We're hiring high performers as proven as our products. Join us.

ATI Inc. is seeking an early-career Computational Materials Scientist with a strong Ni- and / or Ti-based metallurgy background. You will develop and deploy physics-based models to accelerate alloy and process development, link thermodynamic / kinetic predictions to process simulations, and translate microstructure predictions into property outcomes for production-scale processes.

What you'll do

• Develop and validate thermodynamic / kinetic models for Ni- and Ti-based alloys using tools such as Thermo-Calc , Pandat , and related modules (e.g., DICTRA / TC-PRISMA / MatCalc equivalents) to support alloy / process design.
• Build workflows that couple CALPHAD outputs with finite element and process simulation environments (e.g., Abaqus , DEFORM ) for heat treatment, forging / rolling, casting, and additive processes.
• Predict and analyze microstructure evolution (e.g., grain size, texture, precipitation, phase fractions) and link predictions to mechanical properties and product performance.
• Design and execute computational and physical experiments (DoE) in both lab and production environments, comparing model results with experimental data, and iterating for accuracy and robustness.
• Develop maintainable analysis scripts (e.g., Python / MATLAB ) and data pipelines for reproducible modeling, visualization, and reporting.
• Collaborate with metallurgists, process engineers, and operations team members to drive decisions, document results, and present recommendations to technical and business stakeholders.
• Opportunity to engage and lead efforts in new alloy, product, and process development at both the lab and production scale.
