Job description

Tyco Electronics Singapore Pte Ltd (TE Connectivity) is looking for an R&D Scientist/Engineer to join our R&D Center. The Scientist/Engineer will be part of a specialized team, collaborating with R&D team members, business unit partners as well as local university and government research centers to undertake projects that will advance TE’s technologies. This position reports to the Simulation group and is based at our Singapore HQ.

The Singapore R&D Center is chartered to work with the CTO’s of TE’s Business Units to identify technical areas of interest for R&D and develop the technologies that will impact all segments. In order to improve the New Product Development process, TE is expanding the upfront simulation and modelling capabilities, as a part of our Digitalization strategy to improve efficiency, decrease cost and decrease time to market. Effective use of modelling helps to “get it right the first time.”

Job Responsibilities:

• Assist with projects to create multi-physical (chemical, mechanical, thermal, electrical etc.) models that target TE product design and manufacturing process needs
• Evaluate, develop and apply multi-physics solutions using commercial software and cutting-edge numerical methods, as applied to TE problem areas
• Create awareness across TE of the modelling and simulation capabilities of the Singapore center
• Work with local and regional TE sites, and external customers and partners, to address urgent or strategic needs
• Assist with validation and knowledge transfer of outsourced modelling projects
• Partner with Singapore research institutes to develop advanced simulation techniques

Job Requirements:

• Master's degree in Mechanical Engineering (or related) with 3-4 years (or Bachelor degree with 4-6 years, or PhD degree) plus relevant working/research experience
• Keen interest in R&D involving simulation, modeling and data
• Excellent understanding of structural mechanics, heat transfer and fluid dynamics principles
• Broad knowledge of different materials’ mechanical, electric, thermal properties, including polymer, metal and alloy
• Proven experience with modelling mechanical and thermal problems using FEA and CFD simulation packages, preferably with Ansys, Abaqus, Moldex3D, Digimat
• Proven experience with Creo, DesignModeler, SpaceClaim or similar CAD tools

Preferred:

• Familiarity with some or all of the following: Additive Manufacturing, material development and product design
• Broad knowledge of manufacturing processes (molding, extrusion, plating, stamping, assembly etc.)
• Familiarity with TE products, such as connector, cable, sensor etc
• Knowledge of microfluidics and lab-on-a-chip
• Knowledge of data science and machine learning
• Familiarity with project management tools
