Job Title Senior Product Engineer -CAE
Business Unit Engineering - Braking
Job Description
This position is responsible for the CAE (Computer Aided Engineering)/ MBD (Multi Body Dynamics) analytical analysis of foundation brake mechatronic systems & component designs from initial concept to production launch supporting product development projects. This position includes interfacing with internal and external customers, suppliers, manufacturing facilities, CAD designers, and lab personnel.
Primary Responsibilities:
* Conduct MBD & FEA CAE simulations of brake components to evaluate design performance against known thermal, structural, NVH, fatigue and related engineering targets and specifications.
* Participate in root cause investigations using CAE studies to identify and implement improvements and resolutions.
* Correlate simulated results to empirical results which includes model, BC, material property, load updates to achieve validated CAE models.
* Develop and maintain timing of CAE simulation tasks to support program milestones.
* Perform basic computational engineering analyses (structural, thermal, etc..) of brake components.
* Develop new analysis/simulation processes and techniques to support new customer (internal and external) requirements.
* Participate in product testing to validate and correlate CAE simulation results.
* Use CAE to investigate and evaluate new design and product technologies.
* Support product development projects related to customer concerns and cost reductions.
* Draw conclusions from analyses performed and write formal reports.
* Prepare and give presentations on analyses performed.
* Identify new simulation software and possible applications to brake system design and development.Minimum Requirements:
* Bachelors Degree in Mechanical Engineering Required. MS Mechanical Engineering preferred.
* 3- 5 + years CAE / Engineering product simulation experience.
* 1 to 5 years of CAE experience with codes such as Adams (or other MBD software), Nastran, Abaqus, ANSYS, HyperMesh.
* Familiar with 3D CAD solid modeling codes such as: CATIA, NX, Pro/E, Solid Works.
