Join our customers' Virtual Engineering team, supporting vehicle and system programmes from concept simulation to delivery. Within the Durability and Robustness (D&R) team, you will focus on the effects of extreme impacts on vehicles, ensuring they are engineered to handle these challenges. This role involves supporting the CAE design verification programme activities within D&R and developing modelling techniques for more efficient and accurate simulations.
Key Performance Indicators:
* Support the DVP for D&R with risk assessment to the vehicle programme based on CAD and CAE analysis for aspects such as Sand Dune Impact, Step Down, and Block Strike.
* Support issue resolution identified in physical testing with CAE to guide and suggest potential solutions.
* Improve existing CAE methods in terms of accuracy and efficiency.
Key Accountabilities and Responsibilities:
* Support the development of automotive components/systems using engineering knowledge and CAE techniques to meet Durability and Robustness performance targets.
* Run CAE analysis, summarise results, and feedback conclusions to colleagues.
* Propose improvements to existing modelling methods.
* Develop efficiency tools for automatic pre- and post-processing of simulations.
* Support projects and teams, including the feedback of results through design/project reviews.
* Present at design reviews with key stakeholders: Centre of Competence, component design teams, PAT teams, packaging teams, Programme teams.
* Liaise with all internal customers and offshore operations as necessary.
* Support the continual development of tools and techniques to enhance capability, improve quality, and robustness of virtual models.
* Undertake any other work as directed by the line manager in connection with the job.
Knowledge, Skills, and Experience:
* Relevant degree (in Mechanical Engineering or similar).
* 5+ years of experience in LS-Dyna Explicit simulations in the automotive industry.
* Very good knowledge of the LS-Dyna solver.
* Ability to work independently on full vehicle models.
* Previous experience supporting engineering or analytical projects.
* Competent in the use of CAE meshing tools such as HyperMesh or Ansa.
* Willingness to engage and follow our Creators Code, demonstrating Customer Love, Unity, Integrity, Growth, and Impact behaviours in everyday work.
* Good communication skills with the ability to convey complex ideas.
* Effective team player who supports team members.
* Self-motivated individual with good attention to detail.
* Passionate about engineering.
* Competent in the use of CAD software, such as 3DExperience (or similar).
* Results-driven individual with the ability to deliver operational plans in a highly demanding environment.
* This is a contract position inside IR35.
