CAE Analyst II (NVH / Durability)
The CAE Analyst II (NVH / Durability) will perform Finite Element Analysis (FEA) to solve NVH / Durability problems to aid engineering in the upfront design of automotive, aerospace, entertainment, and industrial segments. This individual will build FEA models and conduct Computer-Aided Engineering (CAE) analysis supported by sound engineering explanation and hand calculations.
Essential Duties and Responsibilities:
Build NVH / Durability models for various applications in the automotive, aerospace, and entertainment industries using commercial CAE tools such as Nastran, Abaqus / Optistruct / ANSYS.
Develop and present detailed reports during customer meetings.
Develop Python scripts for workflow automation.
Run NVH / Durability simulations (Linear, Non-linear, Dynamic), postprocess results, and provide engineering solutions.
Manage analysis files according to company data-retention policies.
Collaborate with various groups within the CAE department to enhance predictive accuracy and reduce development cycles.
Able to execute projects with minimum guidance, including direct communication with customers, and develop effective design solutions utilizing CAE tools.
Effectively handle more than one project simultaneously, ensuring timely and high-quality deliverables.
Support new technology and process development.
Education and Experience (required):
Bachelor of Science in Mechanical or Aerospace Engineering with coursework in Finite Element Analysis, Strength of Materials, Mechanical behavior of metals, plastics & composites, Noise & Vibration.
Experience in linear, non-linear & dynamic structural FEA modeling, analysis
1-3 years of NVH & Durability modeling experience in building FEA models using tools such as ANSA, Hypermesh
Education and Experience (preferred):
