Modeling & Simulation Analysis - Lead Engineer

Description

• Collaborate with the product teams leads to understand system operation and associated requirements.
• Provide technical guidance to other M&S engineers within MSD conducting thermal or stress analysis which may include developing initial analysis plans, support with tools, and peer review of results.
• Document analysis plans for product teams to define model objectives, inputs and outputs, limitations/assumptions, and description of expected results.
• Summarize/Present Analysis Results at Appropriate Levels
• Create environment that encourages mentoring and learning with others
• Champion for the adoption of modeling and simulation with the product teams.
• Estimate labor hours and duration to complete modeling tasks and peer review those provided by global team or other MSD engineers.
• Suggest productivity improvements and support product teams in developing value propositions for leveraging model-based engineering initiatives.
• Develop high fidelity structural analysis using NASTRAN and ANSYS MECHANICAL
• Provide technical oversight of global teams involved in structural and thermal modeling which include informal technical reviews, responsibility of technical quality/completeness of work products delivered to product teams, and ownership of model transition plans.
• Develop high fidelity thermal analysis using ANSYS Fluent or CFX and other tools as needed.

Requirements

• Direct experience with ANSYS Mechanical, ANSYS Fluent, and NASTRAN
• Demonstrated understanding of material physics for various structural and thermal environments
• 7-9 years of experience with thermal fluid analysis
• Experience manipulating and accessing CAD data from SOLIDWORKS 3D, CREO or similar tools.
• Demonstrated communication skills:
• Direct experience with 2D/3D analysis tools including FEA and CFD
• Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering from an accredited institution.
• 7-9 years of experience with structural stress vibration analysis
• Thermal Fluids and Stress Analysis Methods - FEA/FD/CFD
• Experience developing tools and scripts to pre-process and post process data to evaluate large data sets quickly and efficiently.
• Demonstrated experience working with global M&S teams
• Master’s degree in engineering discipline preferred.
• Standard for validating dynamic and vibration FEA with laboratory shaker table test data
• You must be a U.S. citizen to be eligible and considered for this position pursuant to applicable U.S. Federal Government contract requirements.
• Understand when hand analysis methods are appropriate and acceptable in place of structural or thermal FEA
• Minimum of 1 year of experience of project and or functional management of modeling and simulation work scope.
• Basic understanding of damage tolerance and fracture mechanics analysis
• Minimum 7 years of experience conducting thermal/fluid and/or structural/vibration analysis of mechanical systems and components.
• Demonstrated experience of systems engineering approach to executing analysis and leading modeling and simulation activities
• Minimum of 1 year of experience with ANSYS Mechanical and/or ANSYS Fluent
• Design for Six Sigma (DFSS) Green Belt certification or ability to complete within 1 year
