This role focuses on preparing finite element models, running complex load cases, interpreting results, and providing clear technical reports that guide design decisions and ensure compliance with test requirements.

Responsibilities

• Prepare simulation-ready geometry and finite element models from CAD data, ensuring accurate representation of components and assemblies.
• Build and refine finite element meshes, applying appropriate mesh controls and performing mesh-convergence checks to validate solution quality.
• Execute load cases involving torque, axial and vertical loads, lever forces, bolt preload, snap fits, and magnet retention to evaluate structural performance.
• Perform linear and nonlinear structural analysis using ANSYS Mechanical and Workbench, including complex contact and large-deformation problems.
• Conduct buckling, fatigue, creep, wear, and thermomechanical simulations to assess durability and reliability under various operating conditions.
• Run drop, shock, impact, and slam simulations using an explicit solver to evaluate product behavior under dynamic and transient loading.
• Define materials, contacts, loads, boundary conditions, and analysis settings to ensure realistic and robust simulation models.
• Extract and interpret stress, strain, deformation, contact pressure, reaction force, and fatigue-life results from simulations.
• Compare simulation results with test requirements and specifications, identifying gaps and recommending design improvements.
• Prepare clear, detailed technical reports that document analysis methods, assumptions, results, and conclusions for engineering stakeholders.
• Implement feedback from technical reviews to refine models and analyses, and support design-comparison studies between alternative concepts.
• Collaborate with design and engineering teams to troubleshoot issues, validate simulation assumptions, and ensure alignment between analysis and physical testing.
