• Create, sustain, and refine FEA procedures, templates, workflow standards, reporting tools, and documentation for analysis.

• Assist with non-linear analysis, fatigue analysis, structural analysis, and other advanced simulation requirements across various engineering projects.

• Examine CAD and FEA model outputs, which include geometry preparation, mesh quality, material properties, boundary conditions, load cases, and result accuracy.

• Analyze simulation results and offer clear engineering recommendations to aid design decisions, resolve issues, and enhance products.

• Organize FEA task planning, scheduling, prioritization, and progress tracking to ensure analysis tasks align with project timelines.

• Maintain reporting systems, trackers, and technical records encompassing FEA status, model evaluations, analysis results, and correlation activities.

• Assist in model correlation and validation by comparing simulation results with physical test outcomes, historical data, or engineering expectations.

• Discover opportunities to enhance modeling efficiency, analysis precision, reporting quality, and overall FEA process capabilities.

• Draft technical reports, analysis summaries, result presentations, and engineering documentation for internal evaluations and decision-making.

• Collaborate with design, product, manufacturing, testing, and engineering teams to clarify analysis needs and support practical design outcomes.

• Provide FEA insights into engineering change processes, product improvement initiatives, and technical issue investigations.

• Maintain organized FEA files, model assumptions, simulation results, reports, and supporting technical documentation.

• Remain informed about FEA, CAE, Abaqus, mechanical analysis, product engineering, and best practices in advanced manufacturing.

• Other role-specific duties as they arise.

⛳️ Requirements

• A Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Automotive Engineering, Materials Engineering, Structural Engineering, or a related field is preferred.

• At least 4+ years of experience in finite element analysis, CAE engineering, mechanical design analysis, structural analysis, product engineering, or a comparable role.

• Significant hands-on experience with Abaqus or Abaqus/CAE for FEA modeling, simulation setup, analysis, result interpretation, and reporting.

• Highly regarded experience in fatigue analysis, non-linear analysis, structural analysis, durability assessment, or product performance simulation.

• Strong comprehension of mechanical engineering principles, material behavior, load cases, boundary conditions, mesh quality, and simulation assumptions.

• Experience in reviewing CAD and FEA models, identifying modeling challenges, and enhancing analysis accuracy, consistency, or reliability.

• Familiarity with CAD tools such as SolidWorks, CATIA, Siemens NX, or similar platforms is a plus.

• Capability to interpret complex simulation results and translate findings into actionable engineering recommendations.

• Experience in developing or enhancing FEA processes, analysis procedures, reporting templates, workflow systems, or technical documentation.

• Background in supporting product development, design validation, engineering change processes, testing, or manufacturing issue resolution.

• Experience in automotive, composites, advanced manufacturing, wheels, aerospace, mechanical products, or structural engineering settings is highly regarded.

• Strong analytical and problem-solving abilities, with the capability to investigate technical issues and propose practical solutions.

• High attention to detail when reviewing models, analysis inputs, assumptions, calculations, results, and technical reports.

• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to convey technical findings clearly to both engineering and non-engineering stakeholders.

• Strong organizational skills, capable of managing multiple analysis requests, priorities, documentation, and deadlines.

• Proactive, methodical, and focused on continuous improvement, with a keen interest in enhancing FEA capabilities and engineering outcomes.
