Set up and conduct tests/experimental procedures in accordance with specification requirements under environmentally controlled conditions (temperature, humidity, environment, etc).
Design experiments and conduct tests in a controlled fashion to be able to produce consistent, repeatable results in a meaningful way.
Assist engineers by following specification procedures and instructions in the development process and demonstrating the production readiness and maturity of the processes envisioned by the engineers, such as adhesive bonding of specimens, composite lay-up of components, insulating prototypes, and/or producing experimental/production batches of Energetic/Inert compounds.
