CAE Engineer - Structural Analysis & Durability

Designation: Project Engineer

Key Responsibilities:

• Perform linear nonlinear structural FEA using ANSYS Workbench/Mechanical, including static, contact, modal, harmonic and transient/dynamic analyses.
• Perform fatigue/durability analysis using Fe-safe and assess stress, deformation, natural frequencies, design margins and component life.
• Develop and validate FE models including CAD cleanup, meshing, contacts, material properties, loads and boundary conditions, with appropriate mesh convergence and engineering checks.
• Investigate product/component issues, identify root causes and causal mechanisms, and recommend effective design or corrective actions.
• Support FEA-test correlation, validation and design optimization, considering performance, reliability, durability, weight, cost, manufacturing, assembly and serviceability.
• Support design/CAD studies using Creo, including concept development, design refinement and engineering evaluation.
• Perform/support DVA, GDT, CETOL/tolerance stack-up, virtual builds, press/interference-fit and seal-crush calculations.
• Apply engineering methods and computational tools to support Design Validation Plans (DVPR), Engineering Standard Work (ESW), design reviews and technical decision-making.
• Develop or improve engineering calculation tools, simulation methods and automation to improve analysis efficiency and decision quality.
• Collaborate with Design, Materials, Thermal Sciences, Validation, Manufacturing and Quality teams and effectively communicate technical recommendations.
• Prepare clear technical reports, analysis results and design recommendations for stakeholders.
