Résumé du poste

Traxial, Belgium-based leader in yokeless axial flux motor technology, seeks a Mechanical and Thermal Simulations Engineer. You will lead structural FEA to assess strength, stiffness, fatigue, and thermal‑mechanical behavior while validating thermal models for motors and inverters.

You’ll develop analytical models and design tests, correlating simulations with experimental data. Experience with Ansys and Python is preferred, with strong English communication and cross‑team collaboration.

Qualifications

• Master’s degree in Mechanical, Electro-Mechanical, Aerospace engineering or equivalent through experience.
• Strong understanding of mechanics, structural analysis, material behavior, and FEA.
• Good understanding of thermodynamics, heat transfer, and fluid mechanics.
• Good understanding of multidisciplinary engineering domains, including mechanics, NVH, electromagnetics, and electrical systems.
• At least three years of experience with structural FEA; experience with thermal simulation and lumped-parameter modelling is an advantage.
• Proficiency with Ansys software and Python is preferred.
• Strong English communication skills (written and verbal); good collaboration across teams.

Responsabilités

• Strengthen the Simulation Team by improving structural and mechanical simulation capabilities.
• Perform structural FEA simulations to evaluate strength, stiffness, fatigue, vibration, and thermal‑mechanical behavior of motor components.
• Support the development and validation of thermal simulation models for axial flux motors and power electronics.
• Develop analytical models to complement simulation results and support design decisions.
• Design tests and prototypes to validate analyses, and correlate simulation results with experimental data.
• Perform root cause analyses of product and process issues and provide simulation‑driven recommendations for design improvements.
