Dr. Hasier earned his Ph.D. in Materials Science and Engineering from the Illinois Institute of Technology, where he researched physical metallurgy applied to structural and functional alloy design. He kept the lights on in his apartment by performing some failure analysis work for Chicago small businesses and members of the Thermal Processing Technology Center. He has a B.S. in Physics from Caltech. He has worked in the private and public sectors at companies ranging from a hemorrhaging-edge Li-ion battery startup to Fortune 500 and FTSE 100 behemoths in aerospace and testing. His experience includes failure analysis, root cause investigation, risk based inspection, nondestructive testing, mechanical testing, thermomechanical process simulation, alloy design, cryogenic, high pressure and high temperature systems, electrochemical testing, and energy storage material characterization and design. He was recently named one of the 40 Under 40 by Heat Treat Today.
