What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as an FEA engineer?

To thrive as a FEA (Finite Element Analysis) Engineer, you need a strong background in mechanical or structural engineering, proficiency in mathematical modeling, and typically a bachelor's or master's degree in a related field. Mastery of FEA software tools such as ANSYS, Abaqus, or NASTRAN, and relevant certifications, are commonly required. Strong analytical thinking, problem-solving abilities, and clear communication skills help you interpret data and collaborate effectively with multidisciplinary teams. These skills are essential to ensure accurate simulations, optimize product designs, and contribute to successful engineering projects.

What does an FEA engineer do?

As a FEA Engineer, your daily tasks often include developing finite element models, running simulations to predict product behavior under various conditions, and analyzing the results to identify potential design improvements or weaknesses. You will collaborate closely with design, manufacturing, and test teams to ensure simulation results align with real-world performance and project requirements. You may also be responsible for documenting your findings, presenting recommendations, and refining models based on new data or project needs. This role provides opportunities to impact product safety, reliability, and efficiency through your technical expertise.

What is an FEA engineer?

An FEA (Finite Element Analysis) Engineer is responsible for using computer simulations to analyze the structural, thermal, and fluid dynamics behavior of products or components. They use FEA software like ANSYS, Abaqus, or NASTRAN to predict stresses, deformations, and failures in materials under various conditions. FEA Engineers work in industries such as automotive, aerospace, and manufacturing to optimize designs, improve product reliability, and reduce costs. Their role involves interpreting results, validating simulations with physical tests, and collaborating with design teams to enhance product performance.

Job Description:
Broadcom is seeking an experienced package mechanical FEA engineer for very-large and complex packages for industry-leading ASICs. You will be part of a worldwide R&D team developing high-performance package designs for ASICs for artificial intelligence (AI), networking, high-performance computing (HPC), and 5G base stations. You'll have exposure to emerging package integration technologies, such as co-packaged fiber-optic transceivers and connectors and complex chip stacking (3DIC, hybrid copper bonding, heterogeneous integration, etc). Also, you will develop and optimize unique multi-chip-module (MCM) packages and mainstream flip-chip BGA (FCBGA) packages. You'll have the opportunity to collaborate with the R&D and manufacturing teams to influence the mechanical design of new ASICs, and make engineering trade offs with warpage, stress, reliability, cost, thermal and electrical performance, etc..
RESPONSIBILITIES:
  • Design responsibility for mechanical design aspects of ASIC packages
  • Use advanced FEA to quantify and optimize reliability and manufacturing
  • Measure and experiment to validate understanding and improve model accuracy
  • Collaborate closely with package designers, reliability and manufacturing partners (internal and external)
  • Schedule, prioritize, & track your work across 4+ projects simultaneously
  • Create presentations for and present to various audiences : engineers, managers, senior management, customers, and vendors
  • Document design rules and guidelines

EDUCATION/EXPERIENCE & REQUIREMENTS:
  • Bachelors in Mechanical Engineering or similar field and 8+ years of experience in FEA modeling or Masters in Mechanical Engineering or similar field and 6+ years of experience in FEA modeling or PhD in Mechanical Engineering or similar field and 3+ years of experience in FEA modeling.
  • Ability to evaluate complicated numerical simulation results against first principles such as strength of materials solutions
  • Ability to calibrate modeling and results with existing empirical data
  • Perform mechanical testing and measurement
  • Devise lab scale tests to validate analyses
  • Seek mechanical solutions at the intersection of manufacturing limitations, required reliability and customer expectations
  • Ansys Classic/Mechanical experience is preferred. Equivalent tool is OK
  • Cooperate with our world-wide team (multiple time zones), including co-design with internal team members and external (Vendor) designers
  • Self-management and organization skills
  • Presentation and technical documentation skills
