National Center for Asphalt Technology (NCAT) seeks candidates for an Engineer position to assist with applying engineering concepts, principles, and practices in research, development, testing, design, and analysis of asphalt materials.
The National Center for Asphalt Technology (NCAT) was established in 1986 as a partnership between Auburn University and the National Asphalt Pavement Association (NAPA) Research and Education Foundation to provide practical research and development to meet the needs of maintaining America's highway infrastructure. NCAT was created to ensure this industry's ability to provide pavements that are durable, sustainable, quiet, safe and economical. We work with state highway agencies, the Federal Highway Administration and the highway construction industry to develop and evaluate new products, design technologies and construction methods that quickly lead to pavement improvements.
This is a two-year soft-funded position and continuation of employment will be contingent upon the availability of funding.
