Pyrotechnics Simulation Engineer

Alta Ares; Paris; Vor Ort; EUR 60.000 - 90.000; Vollzeit

Zusammenfassung

Alta Ares in Paris is seeking a hands-on engineer to perform thermo-mechanical simulations for defense systems, focusing on static/dynamic analysis, vibration, and fatigue. You will model pyrotechnic phenomena and provide actionable design recommendations.

You will define models and boundary conditions, interpret results, prepare notes and reports, and collaborate with mechanical design, systems engineering, testing, and manufacturing teams to ensure traceability and high quality.

Qualifikationen

• Strong knowledge of structural mechanics and dynamics.
• Knowledge of finite element analysis methods.
• Experience with explicit simulation and rapid transient phenomena.
• Knowledge of pyrotechnic and/or ballistic phenomena.
• Proficiency in LS-DYNA, Abaqus, ANSYS, or equivalent.
• Ability to analyze complex results and translate them into technical recommendations.
• Knowledge of mechanical testing and simulation-to-test correlation.

Aufgaben

• Perform thermo-mechanical simulations: static, dynamic, vibration, shock, fatigue.
• Model and simulate pyrotechnic phenomena: explosions, pressure, fragmentation, and fluid–structure interaction, as required.
• Define assumptions, models, boundary conditions, and acceptance criteria.
• Analyze and interpret simulation results.
• Provide recommendations for design and product improvements.
• Correlate numerical results with experimental test data.
• Support the planning and preparation of test campaigns.
• Prepare calculation notes, simulation reports, and related technical documentation.
• Contribute to the development and improvement of simulation methods and tools.
• Ensure the traceability and quality of models and results.
