Job Summary

We are looking for a CAE Modelling Engineer with 1-3 years of hands-on experience in Altair HyperMesh for finite element modelling and model preparation. The candidate will be responsible for creating high-quality FE models from CAD geometry, performing meshing, model integration, connection modelling, and quality checks for structural CAE simulations.

Key Responsibilities

• Perform geometry cleanup and simplification of CAD models using Altair HyperMesh.
• Create 1D, 2D and 3D finite element meshes based on project and solver requirements.
• Perform midsurface extraction and shell meshing for sheet-metal and structural components.
• Carry out tetra and hexa meshing for solid components where required.
• Create and manage components, materials, properties, sets and load collectors.
• Perform FE model assembly and integration of individual components and subsystems.
• Model connections such as:
  • Spot welds
  • Seam welds
  • Bolts
  • Rigid connections
  • Adhesive connections
  • Contact interfaces
• Perform mesh quality checks including aspect ratio, skew, warpage, Jacobian, minimum/maximum length and other quality parameters.
• Correct mesh-quality issues and ensure models meet customer/project standards.
• Perform model checks for penetrations, intersections, free edges, duplicate elements and connectivity issues.
• Prepare solver-ready models for structural analysis.
• Work closely with CAE analysts and design engineers to resolve modelling and geometry-related issues.
• Maintain modelling documentation and follow defined CAE modelling guidelines.
