What is the difference between Assistant Ls Dyna Engineer vs Mechanical Design Engineer?

AspectAssistant Ls Dyna EngineerMechanical Design Engineer
Primary FocusFinite element analysis and simulation using Ls Dyna softwareDesign and development of mechanical components and systems
Required SkillsKnowledge of Ls Dyna, CAD tools, basic engineering principlesCAD software, mechanical engineering fundamentals, design skills
Work EnvironmentEngineering labs, simulation centers, automotive or aerospace industriesDesign offices, manufacturing plants, product development teams

The Assistant Ls Dyna Engineer primarily focuses on performing simulations and analyses using Ls Dyna software, often supporting product testing and validation. In contrast, a Mechanical Design Engineer concentrates on creating and refining mechanical designs for products. While both roles require engineering fundamentals, the Assistant Ls Dyna Engineer emphasizes simulation skills, whereas the Mechanical Design Engineer emphasizes design and manufacturing knowledge.

Job description

This position is an opportunity for an engineer to join our BCP structural analysis team as a structural analyst. This global team is primarily US-based, but also has engineers in the UK and India.
You will be responsible for evaluating and developing heavy structures, including main frames, linkages, and undercarriages. You will use finite element analysis tools to develop components to meet structural goals of strength, stiffness, fatigue life and natural frequency while meeting manufacturing and cost constraints. You will work closely with design teams to develop new product and resolve field issues. Your work will include building, solving, and correlating finite element models, as well as supporting validation tests and processing test data. You will demonstrate a strong sense of urgency and determination to resolve issues while maintaining high quality standards.
Job Responsibilities and Duties:
• Building and running FEA models using NASTRAN, LS-Dyna, and Creo-Simulate. Typical projects will involve static linear and non-linear analysis solutions, with some dynamic impact analysis.
• Working with designers and contributing own ideas to develop efficient solutions to structural issues.
• Supporting validation testing with gage maps and data analysis.
• Correlation of FEA models to match test data.
• Working with analysis team to continually improve analysis efficiency and quality.
• Involving other engineers and technical resources to address detailed technical problems.
• Clearly communicating analysis results through verbal presentations and written reports.
Skills and Experience:
• Engineering bachelor's degree.
• Familiarity with FEA model building and results interpretation.
• Experience with weld/metal fatigue, dynamics, vibrations, modal testing, isolation systems, digital signal processing or fatigue is not necessary but is highly desired.
• Ability to understand detailed drawings and technical specifications.
• Good mechanical aptitude.
• Team player with the ability to interact positively with all functions and organisation levels.
• Self-starting, with a natural sense of urgency.
• Productive and able to manage own work.
• Good oral and written communication skills.
• Flexibility and ability to operate under pressure.
