About the role

Tangent Materials is seeking a Polymer Testing Engineer to support the characterization, weathering evaluation, and durability assessment of thermoplastic composite materials and products. This role focuses on accelerated and natural weathering programs, thermal cycling, UV exposure, rheological and thermal characterization, degradation and failure analysis, and the development of test methods that correlate laboratory exposure with real-world outdoor service performance.

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.
