Research Engineer in the field of metallic coating product

ArcelorMittal is the world’s largest steel producer. We use the most innovative technologies to create the steels tomorrow’s world will be made of. Every day over 125,000 of our talented people, located in over 60 countries, push the boundaries of digitalization, and use advanced technologies to create a stronger, faster, and smarter world. To help make this possible, they know they can depend on the support and training that a company of our scope and scale can provide.

Comprising 1,650 researchers spread across 14 Research Centres around the world, our Global R&D team aims to continuously improve the quality of steel and its manufacturing processes. This involves investigating and developing disruptive technologies, reducing the carbon footprint of steel, and optimizing costs while maintaining uncompromising quality. The team's strong multicultural diversity, with over 30 nationalities, offers international experience and makes it possible to meet global needs. 

You will join the Metallic Coatings and Surfaces (MCS) cluster belonging to the Product Research Center. This cluster, consisting of about 70 people, aims to master and develop both existing and new metallic coatings, surface treatments, and innovative processes. 
To achieve these objectives, various areas of expertise are developed and applied, including corrosion resistance, surface analysis, coating behavior/characterization, and the hot-dip-galvanizing process. The position offered is within the metallic coating product development team. In this team, activities focus on improving and developing innovative pre-coated metallic coating solutions for different steel markets: automotive, industry and appliances. The position open is related to new products development.

Your role

We are looking for a research engineer to work on metallic coatings development, with focus on metallurgy. Specialization in Materials Science and Data Science (Python, MATLAB) is expected for the job that consists in:

ArcelorMittal est l’un des leaders mondiaux de l’industrie de l’acier et des mines avec 154 000 salariés, une présence dans 60 pays et des installations de production d'acier primaire dans 16 pays. En 2022, ArcelorMittal a réalisé un chiffre d'affaires de 79,8 milliards de dollars et une production d'acier brut de 59 millions de tonnes, tandis que la production de minerai de fer a atteint 45,3 millions de tonnes. Notre objectif est de contribuer à construire un monde meilleur avec des aciers plus intelligents. Des aciers fabriqués à l'aide de procédés innovants qui consomment moins d'énergie, émettent beaucoup moins de carbone et réduisent les coûts. Des aciers plus propres, plus résistants et réutilisables. Des aciers pour les véhicules électriques et les infrastructures d'énergie renouvelable, qui accompagneront la transformation des sociétés au cours de ce siècle. Avec l'acier au cœur de notre action, la créativité de nos équipes et notre culture d'entreprise, nous aiderons le monde à réaliser ce changement. Voilà, selon nous, ce qui fait l’entreprise sidérurgique de demain.
