Senior Structural R&D Engineer

The opportunity

How You Will Make An Impact

• You will be responsible for creating and improving analytical tools and finite element methodologies and automations for structural, static, fatigue and dynamic analysis
• Be part of the design process and propose new ideas through concept design, prototyping and verification all the way to production.
• Support new product development projects focusing on mechanical design and simulation tasks involving multi-disciplinary areas – for example static, dynamic, thermal and seismic simulations.
• Perform mechanical and seismic feasibility studies including design calculations, preparation of design specifications and technical documents.
• Provide timely and effective support to facilitate the transfer of technology and knowledge from GLOMUS to other technical centers
• Preparation of 3D CAD Models, drawings, FE-simulation models, test procedures and documentation
• Living Hitachi Energy’s core values of safety and integrity, which means taking responsibility for your own actions while caring for your colleagues and the business.
• Responsible to ensure compliance with applicable external and internal regulations, procedures, and guidelines
  

Your background

• Master’s degree in mechanical, aerospace engineering or physics, with a strong foundation in structural dynamics and vibrations
• 3+ years of relevant experience in Mechanical, static, fatigue, dynamic simulations is a must
• Deep understanding of mechanical core competences, material selection, manufacturing methods.
• Knowledge of high voltage products would be a plus
• Advanced skills in numerical methods for Mechanical simulations. Experience with software suites like ANSYS Workbench or COMSOL is preferential
• Knowledge of programming languages such as MATLAB, Mathcad, Python and Ansys ACT are important for creating custom simulations and analyzing data
• Good proficiency in 3D-CAD modeling and knowledge of cPLM and Windchill is desired
• Experience with structural testing, fiber optics and application of different sensors (e.g., strain gauges, load cells, accelerometers) is a plus
• You bring a high level of self-motivation, curiosity and desire to learn new technologies and simulation methodologies
• Ability to work independently with minimal supervision as well as in a team collaborate effectively to deliver high-quality results on time
• As you will be part of a global business, willingness to travel and fluency in written and spoken English is required
