CAE Engineer

As part of the structural development team, the candidate will carry out full model or sub-model simulations for crash (mainly side pole test, frontal impact) and nvh simulation (overall body stiffness, frequency response, local stiffness, fatigue, NVH) for our structural reinforcement solutions (mainly in the automotive body-in-white). Pre-post (mesh and model set-up) will be done with Hyperworks or ANSA. ANSA preferred. Software in order of importance: LS-Dyna, Pamcrash, Abaqus, Nastran/Optistruct Further details : Technical knowhow: - Full Body in White assessment. CAE (crash) on full Body In White. -Stiffness, durability and NVH would be a plus - Chassis and battery assessment would be a plus - Software in order of importance: LS-Dyna, Pamcrash, Abaqus, Nastran/Optistruct - Knowledge of the automotive industry (structure of vehicle); OEM , working for a Tier1 automotive supplier, design office. - Knowledge of metals. Plastics, composites and/or adhesives simulation would be a plus - AI tools (ex. physics AI) and Python programming is a plus. - Experience in correlating physical calculations/tests would be a plus - Projects and customer contacts: - The main objective is to work in Altorf, but contact with customers is possible (Teams, telephone, site visits to present results). - Work on projects following their progress, knowing the milestones - Creativity, sense of innovation - Location and travel: - Based in Altorf, working with CAE team, project managers, R&D, prototypes - Possibility of visiting customers to gather information and present results - Soft skills: - Able to communicate, also with non-technical counterparts - Able to work independently - Able to train the rest of CAE team in the crash domain of expertise - Languages : - -Fluent English - German is a plus
