Associate Simulation Engineer

Role Overview

• We are seeking an Associate Simulation Engineer with a strong mechanical engineering foundation and hands-on exposure to CAD and CAE activities. The role focuses on supporting simulation projects through model preparation, meshing, preprocessing, and result interpretation under the guidance of senior engineers.

Key Responsibilities

• Perform CAD modifications and model clean-up, preferably using PTC Creo
• Understand and apply basic concepts of Finite Element Analysis (FEA)
• Carry out geometry preparation, meshing, and preprocessing for simulation models
• Perform mesh quality checks and ensure compliance with internal and project-specific quality standards.
• Demonstrate basic mesh sensitivity awareness; identify cases requiring refinement and flag potential risks to senior engineers
• Prepare technical documentation, result summaries, and simulation reports
• Maintain simulation models in accordance with defined standards and best practices
• Collaborate with global teams to resolve geometry and modeling-related issues
• Execute basic FEA tasks under guidance.

Required Skills

• Hands-on experience in meshing and mesh quality evaluation, including an understanding of common quality parameters and the ability to identify and correct poor-quality elements
• Hands-on experience with pre-processors or meshing tools such as HyperMesh, SimLab, and HyperView
• Ability to perform geometry preparation and defeaturing to achieve robust, high-quality meshes, particularly when working with CAD models from PTC Creo
• Practical understanding of how mesh size, type and mesh quality influence solution stability, time step selection, and computational cost
• Understanding of FEA fundamentals, including boundary conditions, loads, constraints, and element types.
• Basic understanding of engineering drawings and GD&T concepts.

Soft Skills Required

• Willingness to learn and grow in the CAE / simulation domain
• Good analytical and logical thinking ability
• Clear communication skills, both written and verbal
• Ability to follow instructions and work under technical guidance
• Strong attention to detail and structured way of working
• Team-oriented mindset with a professional attitude
• Ability to manage tasks, priorities, and deadlines effectively

Added Advantage

• Understanding of basic principles of Journal Bearings
• Basic understanding of Planetary Gearbox systems
• Basic understanding of IC Engines Load cycles.

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering or a related engineering discipline
• 2–3 years of relevant experience in preprocessing, geometry clean-up, and meshing
