Strong technical foundation in steelmaking processes with the ability to apply solutions in a production environment.
Excellent communication, presentation, and problem-solving skills with a customer-focused mindset.
Proficiency with Microsoft Office; experience with CAD or modeling tools is a plus.
Willingness to travel frequently.
What You'll Gain
A hands-on, customer-facing role where your technical expertise directly impacts steelmaking operations.
