About the role
- Perform Finite Element Analysis (FEA) for structural components using tools like ANSYS Workbench, including linear, non-linear, static, dynamic, thermal, and fatigue analyses
- Develop detailed Finite Element Models based on CAD data and technical specifications, ensuring accuracy in boundary conditions, material properties, and mesh quality
- Collaborate with design and product development teams to provide simulation-driven design feedback, optimize geometry, and enhance product performance and reliability
- Generate comprehensive technical reports and presentations summarizing calculation methods, assumptions, results, and design recommendations for both internal stakeholders and external customers
- Conduct hand calculations to validate FEA results and support preliminary design studies using classical mechanical engineering methods (beam theory, stress/strain equations, etc.)
- Perform modal and vibration analysis of rotating and stationary components; experience with MADYN or equivalent tools is a plus
- Support root cause analysis and failure investigations through simulation and calculation to identify corrective actions and design improvements
- Continuously improve analysis processes by identifying automation opportunities, developing macros/scripts, and integrating advanced simulation methodologies & DoE etc.
- Participate in design reviews and provide proactive input based on analysis to influence early-stage design decisions
- Maintain documentation of calculations, analysis assumptions, and validation procedures to support traceability and audits
Requirements
- Master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering (degree from NIT’s or IIT’s preferred)
- Minimum 3-8 years of relevant experience in mechanical simulation, stress analysis, or structural calculations using FEA tools
- Proven experience with ANSYS Workbench for structural and thermal analysis (Linear/Non-linear, Static/Dynamic)
- Hands-on experience with CAD software (preferably UGNX, but CATIA, SolidWorks, or similar acceptable)
- Strong understanding of mechanics of materials, structural analysis, and machine design principles
- Proficiency in hand calculations and use of engineering formulas for stress, strain, fatigue, and thermal loads
- Knowledge of industry standards and design codes (ASME, ISO, DIN, etc.) for mechanical components
- Proficient in MS Office tools (Excel, Word, PowerPoint) for documentation and presentations
Benefits
- Health insurance
- 401(k) matching
- Professional development opportunities
- Paid time off
- Remote work options
