Responsibilities
Conduct detailed/comprehensive simulations using Finite Element Analysis (FEA) software such as Abaqus, and/or other similar commercial software’s of structural components and systems to reduce stress, maximize fatigue life, and minimize NVH
Apply linear and nonlinear finite‑element methods to evaluate stress, stiffness, fatigue, and load paths, while also supporting dynamic studies involving vibration, crank train behavior, and timing or chain system interactions
Develop high‑quality simulation models, define accurate boundary conditions and material behavior, interprets results to drive design improvements, and correlates analysis outcomes with physical test data
Work closely with design and development engineers to help provide design input and perform trade-off studies that will improve the product. This includes evaluating different design options and assessing their impact on performance, weight, cost, and recommending the best solutions
Work closely with test engineers to specify testing and instrumentation needed to obtain analysis inputs and validate results. This includes designing test protocols, analyzing test data, and refining models based on empirical findings
Document analysis findings and share the results with stakeholders, engineering partners, and leaders. This includes preparing detailed reports, presenting findings in meetings, and providing actionable recommendations based on analysis results
Identify potential areas for new method development and work with experts to test and deploy. This involves staying up to date with the latest advancements in analysis techniques, conducting research to develop innovative methods, and implementing these methods in practical applications
Continuously seek opportunities for improving analysis processes, tools, and methodologies. This includes participating in training sessions, attending industry conferences, and collaborating with peers to share knowledge and best practices. This also involves assessing software capabilities, identifying gaps, and recommending upgrades or new tools
Coordinate work packages between onsite and offshore teams. This includes managing project timelines, ensuring clear communication between teams, and maintaining high standards of quality and consistency in deliverables
Qualification
