Structural Analysis Engineer

Role & responsibilities

• Develop and prepare FEA models for mechanical and CFRP composite structures.

• Perform finite element pre-processing, geometry cleanup, meshing, and model connectivity.

• Define boundary conditions, loads, material properties, contacts, and analysis setup.

• Perform/support structural analyses including:

• Linear Static Analysis

• Modal Analysis

• Linear Buckling Analysis

• Basic Nonlinear Analysis

• Review and interpret FEA results using engineering principles.

• Provide design recommendations based on simulation results.

• Ensure mesh quality, model accuracy, and compliance with defined engineering standards.

• Coordinate with design and analysis teams to incorporate feedback.

• Maintain model documentation, traceability, and quality records.

• Prepare technical presentations and communicate findings to customers/stakeholders.

• Manage multiple analysis models and deliver projects within defined timelines.
