结构耐久仿真工程师 CAE Analysis Engineer, Durability

THE ROLE

As a CAE analysis engineer, you are expected to be innovative and will play a critical role in the core development team for Tesla next generation products. You will analyze and optimize our revolutionary vehicle designs with your expertise; contribute to defining the best product in the industry along with a group of talented engineers. You will be brilliant both technically as an individual, and as an active member in a diverse and challenging cross-functional team environment.

Responsibilities

• Develop strength and durability FE models for analysis for our revolutionary vehicle architectures in collaboration with a small team of multi-disciplinary engineers.
• Perform strength and fatigue analysis of BIW, closure, exterior and interior subsystems.
• Develop new CAE methods and process for solving engineering problems unique to Tesla’s EV architectures.
• Challenge established traditional CAE methods and process to improve efficiency and accuracy.
• Collaboratively work with test engineers to create specifications for data acquisition and virtual loads prediction. Carry out CAE to test correlation to improve modelling procedure and work on countermeasures.
• Support world-class engineering teams with design direction based on your analyses and engineering judgement.
• Provide input in the creation of component specification, component DFMEA, and other technical design documents where analysis plays a pivotal role.

Requirements

• Bachelor's degree from Engineering department is required. Master's or PhD’s degree is preferred.
• Theoretical knowledge of finite element analysis.
• Minimum 2 years of demonstrated successful experience as CAE engineer in the automotive sector.
• Excellent applied software experience in ABAQUS. LS-DYNA or Adams expertise is a bonus. Pre- and post-processor experience in ANSA/Meta or HyperWorks is required.
• Experience with either Design Life, or FE Safe fatigue software. Familiar with vibration-based fatigue analysis approach.
• Ability to run Quasi Static, and dynamic strength analysis of structures using explicit solvers will be viewed highly favorably.
• Knowledge of optimization tools and techniques (Not required but preferred)
• Demonstrated ability to work independently and with others on problems that are unusual or difficult.
• Demonstrated ability to deconstruct complex test scenarios with good logic and analysis, root-causing and resolving correlation issues.
• Demonstrated ability in iterative and collaborative automotive engineering environments – success in roles requiring high levels of technical communication and interpretation of analytical results to Design Engineers and Technical Management.
• English speaking proficiency.
