Carbon fiber and advanced composite materials for aerospace and defense
Toray Composite Materials America manufactures carbon fiber and prepreg systems across two US facilities—Tacoma, Washington (adjacent to Boeing's Composite Manufacturing Center) and Decatur, Alabama. The hiring mix skews heavily junior (10 of 16 active roles) across engineering and manufacturing, paired with active projects in process automation, plant performance analytics, and equipment qualification—suggesting operational scaling and modernization of legacy manufacturing workflows rather than new product development.
Toray Composite Materials America produces carbon fiber and advanced composite materials for aerospace, defense, industrial, and automotive customers. The company operates two major production facilities: Tacoma, which supplies finished composite materials and has served Boeing's 777 and 787 programs since 1992, and Decatur, which runs integrated precursor-to-fiber production lines. The company is a significant exporter from Washington State and serves both domestic and international customers. Technology adoption centers on traditional manufacturing tools (AutoCAD, SolidWorks, LIMS) rather than cloud or data platforms.
Two main facilities: Tacoma, Washington (headquarters, established 1992) located adjacent to Boeing's Composite Manufacturing Center, and Decatur, Alabama (established 1997). Tacoma specializes in finished composite materials; Decatur runs precursor-to-carbon-fiber production.
