Job Title CAE Mechanical Engineer
Location: Foster City CA 94404
Duration: 6 months
Pay range: $55 - $80/hr. on W2 ( All Inclusive) The Role:
- The vehicle needs to operate reliably around the clock within a constantly expanding operational area, carrying a variety of users and payload, and being subjected to all that the environment and the users can throw at it.
- This creates a unique challenge for the Strength and Durability attribute team.
- Your role will be to support design engineers in ensuring their systems will operate safely and reliably throughout the life of the vehicle. You will use the most appropriate methods, from hand calculations and FE analysis to component, system, and vehicle testing to support system development.
- Within high pace program cycles, you will work jointly with design and test engineers to develop practicable structural design solutions meeting attribute requirements. You will continuously develop and improve CAE working practices, leading long-term methods projects alongside day-to-day activities.
What you'll do :
- Analyze strength and fatigue performance of mechanical systems from component to full vehicle level under static and dynamic loading.
- Develop feasible structural solutions meeting real world strength and durability requirements.
- Develop and improve working methods in the CAE team and across the vehicle engineering.
- Report and communicate results at all levels including during cross-functional reviews.
- Champion structural solutions which serve Strength and Durability attribute performance and coordinate with other attributes for best overall performance.
Qualifications:
- Master's degree in mechanical / aerospace / motorsport engineering.
- Proven experience of delivering real world structural performance development using simulation, testing and first principal methods.
- Routine use of simple and advanced hand calculations for concept and detail studies.
- Expertise in the use of Implicit FE solvers (Opti struct/Nastran/Abaqus).
- Expertise in fatigue calculations using SN and EN methods (Node/other tools).
- Vibration analysis and testing experience for deterministic and random excitations.
- Proficient with statistical analysis applied to the creation of material allowable properties based on large sample test data.
- Working understanding of road load data collection and accelerated duty cycle creation with equivalent damage method.
- Rigorous approach to engineering problems, ensuring consistency and traceability of results.
- Experience of multi scale FE model correlation.
