Job description

Hagerstown, MD - Direct Hire
Full Time
Productive Resources (www.productiveresources.com) is seeking a candidate to be part of our engineering team for our customer's facility in Hagerstown, MD. As a member of our team, the selected candidate will be an experienced FEA/Structural Analysis Engineer joining our engineering team and serving as a technical expert in structural analysis, finite element analysis, multibody dynamics, and fatigue analysis. This position will support the development and validation of mobile equipment, including booms, scissor lifts, vertical lifts, telehandlers, and other material-handling equipment. The ideal candidate is an analytical problem solver who can take a design from preliminary engineering calculations through advanced simulation and provide actionable recommendations to improve structural performance, durability, and safety. This role will work closely with design engineering and other technical teams to evaluate components and systems under static, dynamic, nonlinear, fatigue, and regulatory loading conditions.
This is a full-time position that is indefinite in duration with the opportunity of professional growth, and additional opportunities within our organization.
Duties:
  • Perform advanced Finite Element Analysis (FEA) of structural components and systems, including booms, scissors, vertical structures, frames, and other load-bearing components.
  • Develop finite element models, including geometry preparation, meshing, material properties, boundary conditions, load application, and model validation.
  • Perform linear static, nonlinear static, modal/normal modes, and dynamic analyses to evaluate structural performance.
  • Analyze telehandler structures and components using appropriate finite element methods, including explicit analysis for impact and protective-structure applications.
  • Interpret FEA results and identify areas of high stress, excessive deformation, instability, or other potential failure modes.
  • Work with design engineers to recommend design modifications and optimize components for strength, weight, durability, manufacturability, and cost.
  • Perform Multibody Dynamics (MBD) simulations to evaluate general machine motion, component interactions, dynamic loading, and system behavior.
  • Develop and incorporate flexible-body models into multibody simulations where appropriate.
  • Extract loads from MBD simulations for use in FEA, component sizing, and structural design.
  • Perform classical engineering calculations and preliminary component sizing using MathCAD Prime or similar engineering calculation tools.
  • Evaluate regulatory and customer-required load combinations, particularly for Mobile Elevating Work Platforms (MEWPs).
  • Prepare engineering calculations, stress reports, and technical documentation supporting regulatory and product approvals.
  • Perform fatigue and durability analyses to estimate component life based on expected duty cycles and operating conditions.
  • Support correlation and validation of analytical models using physical test data when available.
  • Communicate analysis results clearly to engineering teams, management, and other stakeholders.
  • Provide technical guidance and expertise on structural analysis methods, modeling practices, and simulation results.

Requirements:
  • Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Civil or Structural Engineering, or a related field.
  • 5+ years of experience performing structural FEA or a comparable level of advanced engineering analysis experience.
  • Strong understanding of engineering mechanics, structural behavior, material properties, stress analysis, and failure modes.
  • Hands-on experience developing and interpreting finite element models.
  • Experience with linear static and modal analysis; experience with nonlinear analysis is strongly preferred.
  • Ability to translate real-world operating conditions into appropriate engineering load cases and boundary conditions.
  • Strong analytical, problem-solving, and technical communication skills.
  • Ability to work independently on complex engineering problems while collaborating effectively with design and manufacturing teams.

Preferred:
  • Experience with MSC Nastran, MSC Apex, MSC Patran, HyperWorks, OptiStruct, or Radioss.
  • Experience with MSC Adams/View or another multibody dynamics software package.
  • Experience incorporating flexible bodies into multibody simulations.
  • Experience extracting dynamic loads for structural FEA and component sizing.
  • Experience with MathCAD Prime or similar engineering calculation software.
  • Experience with nCode, CAEfatigue, or other fatigue analysis software.
  • Experience performing fatigue analysis based on duty cycles.
  • Familiarity with MEWP, telehandler, aerial lift, heavy equipment, construction equipment, agricultural equipment, or other off-highway machinery.
  • Experience with regulatory or certification-related structural analysis and technical reporting.
  • Knowledge of explicit dynamic/impact analysis and protective structure requirements, including FOPS applications.
