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 simulation and modelling team, collaborating with R&D team members, business unit partners as well as local university and government research centers to undertake projects that will embed simulation in TE’s design and process development workflows to deliver a competitive advantage to TE’s technologies. This position 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.

Job Responsibilities

• Assist with projects to create multi‑physical (mechanical, thermal, chemical, 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 global TE sites, and external customers and vendors, 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 or PhD degree in Mechanical Engineering (or related) plus relevant working/research experience
• Keen interest in R&D involving simulation, modeling and data
• Excellent understanding of structural mechanics, heat transfer and MEMS ( Micro Electromechanical Systems)
• Proven experience with modelling mechanical and thermal problems using FEA simulation packages, preferably with Ansys, Moldex3D, Digimat
• Proven experience with SpaceClaim, Creo, DesignModeler or similar CAD tools
• Familiarity with project management

Nice to have

• Familiarity with some or all of the following: 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.
• Broad knowledge of different materials’ mechanical, electric, thermal properties, including polymer, metal and alloy
• Knowledge of CFD (computational fluid dynamics) using simulation packages, preferably with Ansys Fluent
• Knowledge of Signal Integrity and HFSS simulation
• Knowledge of data science and machine learning
