Crash Simulation Lead Engineer

Take on a new challenge and apply your crash simulation expertise in a cutting-edge field. Youll work alongside collaborative and innovative teammates.

You'll play a key role in ensuring the safety and structural integrity of our rail solutions. Day-to-day, youll work closely with teams across the business (including the Crash Solution operational cell leader, Train Architecture Manager, and Structural Integrity Domain Leader), build finite element crash models, analyze collision scenarios, and propose design improvements on crash devices and supporting structures.

Youll specifically take care of building numerical models of rolling stock and performing crash simulations, but also calibrating models against test results and producing detailed reports.

We will look to you for:

• Building finite element crash models based on collected input data
• Executing, analyzing, and reporting or presenting simulation results
• Performing calibration of numerical models versus test results
• Proposing design improvements for crash devices and supporting structures
• Producing comprehensive crash simulation reports
• Reporting results and addressing issues effectively
