Senior Simulation Engineer

NOV; Ernakulam; On-site; INR 900,000 - 1,500,000; Full time

Job summary

NOV is seeking an experienced Simulation Engineer to design and develop dynamic simulation models for its flexible pipe production using AnyLogic. The role covers modeling manufacturing lines, continuous production, material flow, downtime events, and capacity planning to drive optimization and data-driven insights.

You will collaborate with production, engineering, and supply chain teams, validate assumptions, and update models as machinery and layouts evolve.

Qualifications

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Industrial Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Production Engineering, Systems Engineering, or a related field.
• 3-8 years of experience in simulation modeling, preferably for manufacturing or industrial systems.
• Strong hands-on experience with AnyLogic simulation software.
• Good understanding of DES, continuous/rate-based simulation, and hybrid modeling.
• Experience with AnyLogic Process Modeling Library, agents, events, statecharts, parameters, functions, and custom logic.
• Ability to translate real production processes and operational data into simulation parameters.
• Strong analytical, problem-solving, communication, and teamwork skills.
• Ability to present simulation results and improvement recommendations to technical and non-technical stakeholders.

Responsibilities

• Develop discrete-event, continuous/rate-based, and agent-based simulation models using AnyLogic.
• Model flexible pipe manufacturing processes, including production lines, machines, rollers/reels, buffers, operators, and material flow.
• Simulate continuous pipe production, line speeds, material consumption, reel transfers, and storage limitations.
• Model production interruptions such as bobbin depletion, welding stops, reel changes, changeovers, restart delays, and machine downtime.
• Analyze bottlenecks, machine utilization, WIP, storage capacity, throughput, and production constraints.
• Create input parameters, scenarios, dashboards, charts, and output reports within AnyLogic.
• Integrate with ML for iterating model behavior.
• Collaborate with production, engineering, and supply chain teams to validate assumptions and improve model accuracy.
• Maintain and update simulation models based on changes in machinery, layout, process flow, or product specifications.
• Regular collaboration with Denmark and international teams.
• International travel required, including visits to Brazil or Denmark.
