Metallurgist

We are hiring: Metallurgist – Mechanical & Metallography | ITCPL, Ahmedabad

Industrial Testing Center Private Limited (ITCPL), a NABL‑accredited multi‑discipline laboratory based in Kathwada GIDC, Ahmedabad, is looking for a Metallurgist – Mechanical & Metallography to join our team.

About the role

You will be responsible for metallography and metallurgical evaluation, and for closely coordinating with our mechanical testing section to correlate microstructure with mechanical properties, codes, and client specifications across a wide range of industrial components.

Key responsibilities

- Perform metallography on parent metals and welds: microstructure, grain size, inclusion rating, decarburization, case depth, coating thickness, macro etch, graphite/nodularity in cast irons, quantitative metallography. - Carry out macro and micro examination of welds (weld metal, HAZ, parent metal) for PQR/WPQ and fitness‑for‑service assessments. - Conduct replica / in‑situ metallography for boilers, pressure vessels, piping and other in‑service components, and support condition assessment / damage evaluation. - Support failure investigations in coordination with mechanical, chemical, corrosion and NDT teams, providing metallurgical interpretation and documentation. - Coordinate with mechanical testing for: - Tensile tests (room temperature and elevated temperature up to 800°C) - Bend tests (root, face, side, reverse, parent metal, double, re‑bend) - Pipe/tube tests (flattening, flaring, drift expansion, reverse flattening) - Pull‑out tests of tube‑to‑tube‑sheet joints - Charpy V‑notch impact tests from +100°C to −196°C - Fastener tests (proof load, wedge load, full‑size bolt breaking, shear, re‑tempering) - Hardness tests (Rockwell, Brinell, Vickers, Micro‑Vickers, macro hardness traverse) - Correlate mechanical test results with microstructure and heat treatment condition, and contribute to clear, client‑ready reports. - Ensure compliance with relevant ASTM/IS/ISO standards and NABL ISO/IEC 17025 requirements in all metallurgical and mechanical‑related activities.

What we’re looking for

- BE / BTech / ME / MTech in Metallurgical Engineering / Metallurgy / Materials Science. - 0–5 years’ experience in an industrial testing lab / steel plant / foundry / forging shop (freshers with strong metallography and testing exposure are also encouraged to apply). - Hands‑on skills in metallographic sample preparation, micro/macro examination, and basic understanding of mechanical tests listed above. - Familiarity with ASTM/IS/ISO standards for metallography and mechanical testing and willingness to work within NABL systems. - Strong analytical ability, attention to detail, and good communication skills for technical reporting and client interaction.
