About the role

Sandia National Laboratories is seeking a Senior/Principal Material Scientist focused on advanced metal manufacturing. Lead process development for laser powder bed fusion, DED, and wire arc AM, and drive team efforts across Sandia’s Advanced Metal Processing programs. You will collaborate with a world-class team, develop lattice designs for lightweight, thermally managed components, and mentor engineers while ensuring safety and compliance on-site.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
