What is a Femap?

A Femap job typically involves using Siemens Femap, a finite element analysis (FEA) software, to create, analyze, and optimize engineering models. Professionals in this role use Femap to simulate structural, thermal, and dynamic performance of products. They often work in industries like aerospace, automotive, and manufacturing to ensure product reliability and efficiency. Strong skills in FEA, CAD integration, and engineering principles are essential for this role.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive in the Femap position, and why are they important?

To excel in a Femap role, professionals should have a strong background in finite element analysis, mechanical engineering, and structural simulation, typically holding a relevant engineering degree. Expertise in using Femap software by Siemens, alongside familiarity with associated CAD and FEA tools, is highly valuable; some positions may also require certification in Femap or related platforms. Excellent problem-solving, communication, and teamwork skills help professionals translate complex technical data into actionable insights. These competencies ensure accurate modeling, efficient project execution, and clear collaboration across engineering and design teams.

What are the typical responsibilities of a Femap analyst or engineer?

A Femap analyst or engineer is primarily responsible for setting up, performing, and interpreting finite element analyses (FEA) using the Femap software suite. This typically involves importing geometry from CAD systems, meshing models, defining material properties, applying boundary conditions, running simulations, and analyzing results to provide recommendations for structural improvements. Additionally, professionals in this role often collaborate with design, manufacturing, and testing teams to validate models and ensure their accuracy. Strong documentation and reporting capabilities are also important to effectively communicate findings to stakeholders and support project decisions.

Job description

Responsibilities
This role will require the engineer to work cross-functionally and identify needs from other engineering and programmatic groups including systems engineers and program managers. In addition, they will be required to tackle open-ended analysis problems that require proactive communication and problem-solving.
In general, the engineer will be required to support the following tasks:
  • Lead and assist with the structural analysis of small satellites, payloads, sub-assemblies, and ground support equipment.
  • Develop and execute finite element models (FEM) to simulate and predict the structural behavior of various components using NASA & Mil Standards.
  • Perform first-principles calculations throughout the design cycle.
  • Perform linear and nonlinear static, dynamic, and thermal analyses to assess stress margins, fatigue life, and potential failure modes.
  • Collaborate with design engineers to optimize structural designs, materials, and configurations to meet performance, weight, and cost targets while ensuring structural safety and reliability.
  • Conduct trade studies and sensitivity analyses to evaluate design alternatives, assess design margins, and mitigate structural risks and uncertainties.
  • Generate comprehensive analysis reports, technical memos, and presentations to communicate analysis results, conclusions, and recommendations to project stakeholders, including management, customers, and regulatory authorities.
  • Provide feedback and input to cross-functional teams:
    • Provide structural input to help guide preliminary & detailed designs.
    • Provide structural feedback on how to correct any design non-compliances.
    • Provide structural input during test planning phases and process review.
  • Support and collaborate with test engineers and technicians (AI&T staff) on the development and validation of structural models, simulations, and test plans for ground and flight testing.
  • Utilize CAD software to design and develop various satellite components and ground support equipment.
  • Support & design environmental test campaigns.
  • Proactively identify inefficiencies or issues with analysis processes and propose / implement solutions.
  • Specify structural & mechanical hardware and support quoting efforts.

Qualifications
REQUIRED:
  • Bachelor's degree in relevant engineering or computation field plus 8-10 years or MS plus 6-8 years professional working experience in structural engineering positions or PhD with 3-5 years.

    • Minimum of 2+ years of experience in structural analysis.
    • Minimum of 2+ years of experience in Mechanical Design for small satellites using CAD software.
  • Must be able to obtain and maintain a Secret clearance.
  • Proficiency in finite element analysis (FEA) software (Femap preferred), proficient in basic structural & dynamic principles.
  • Strong understanding of structural mechanics, dynamics, and materials science principles relevant to aerospace applications.
  • CAD Modeling Experience.

PREFERRED:
  • Excellent problem-solving skills and analytical abilities, with the capability to identify, assess, and resolve complex structural challenges and performance issues.
  • Ability to bound difficult problems through first principles and hand calculations.
  • Effective communication skills, with the ability to convey technical information clearly and concisely to diverse audiences, including engineers, managers, and customers.
  • Detail-oriented mindset with a commitment to quality, accuracy, and compliance in all aspects of structural analysis and evaluation.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
  • Ability to work in a small team environment with little oversight.
