Job description

Job Title

Structural CAE Engineer (ABAQUS & HyperMesh)

Overview

We are seeking an experienced  Structural CAE Engineer to support the structural design and analysis of high-voltage battery systems using advanced CAE tools. The ideal candidate will collaborate with battery design teams to develop, analyze, and validate structural performance while supporting innovative battery technologies.

This is a hybrid position requiring 4 days per week onsite (Monday–Thursday).

Key Responsibilities
  • Build 3D structural CAE models for battery internal components from CAD data.
  • Develop and debug complex finite element models independently.
  • Perform nonlinear structural simulations for battery packs at the system, subsystem, and component levels using CAE tools.
  • Conduct pre-processing, meshing, simulation setup, post-processing, and result evaluation.
  • Provide technical recommendations and design guidance based on simulation results.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional engineering teams to obtain simulation boundary conditions.
  • Support correlation of CAE models with physical testing data.
  • Coordinate with CAE teams supporting meshing and geometry cleanup activities.
  • Prepare clear, organized technical reports documenting analysis, conclusions, and recommendations.
Required Qualifications
  • Master's degree in Mechanical Engineering (including FEA coursework).
  • Graduate-level coursework in Finite Element Analysis (FEA).
  • Thesis, research, or project experience involving structural analysis.
  • Experience with nonlinear FEA projects.
  • Minimum 4 years of experience working with structural components and designs in an engineering environment.
  • Minimum 3 years of experience using ABAQUS for nonlinear finite element analysis (5+ years preferred).
  • Strong expertise in:
    • ABAQUS
    • HyperMesh
    • nCode or fe-safe
    • 3DEXPERIENCE (3DX)
  • Experience building and setting up finite element models.
  • Experience evaluating simulation results and correlating CAE results with physical testing.
  • Ability to independently modify and assess finite element meshes.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills.
Preferred Qualifications
  • 5+ years of CAE structural modeling and nonlinear simulation experience.
  • M.S. in Mechanical Engineering or equivalent.
  • Experience with:
    • OptiStruct Non-Linear
    • HyperView
    • ABAQUS Viewer
    • Teamcenter
    • ANSYS or equivalent CAE tools
  • Experience with fatigue analysis tools such as FEMFAT, nCode, or fe-safe.
  • Knowledge of structural materials, fracture mechanics, crack propagation, and energy flow analysis.
  • Experience with Python scripting in ABAQUS.
  • Familiarity with thermal-mechanical coupled analysis.
  • Experience using optimization tools such as modeFRONTIER, iSight, HEEDS, Tosca, or OptiStruct.
  • Experience with physical testing and validation.
  • Ability to mentor junior engineers and collaborate effectively within cross-functional teams.
  • Knowledge of variability, robustness, and Six Sigma methodologies.
