Finite Element information

What is a finite element?

A Finite Element job involves using the Finite Element Method (FEM) to analyze and simulate physical systems in engineering and science. Professionals in this field use computer-aided engineering (CAE) software to model structures, fluids, heat transfer, and other physical behaviors. They work in industries like aerospace, automotive, civil engineering, and biomechanics to optimize designs and ensure structural integrity. These roles typically require expertise in numerical methods, material science, and programming.

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

To excel in a Finite Element Engineer role, you need a strong background in mechanical or civil engineering, materials science, and applied mathematics, along with relevant engineering degrees. Expertise in finite element analysis (FEA) software such as ANSYS, Abaqus, or NASTRAN, and knowledge of CAD tools or programming languages like Python or MATLAB, are often required. Strong problem-solving abilities, attention to detail, and effective communication skills are vital for collaborating with cross-functional engineering teams. These competencies enable accurate simulation, analysis, and design validation, which are critical for ensuring product integrity and performance.

What typical responsibilities does a finite element engineer have on a daily basis?

A Finite Element Engineer is commonly responsible for building and validating simulation models, analyzing product designs for performance and durability, and interpreting analysis results to provide actionable recommendations to design teams. Much of the day involves working with FEA software, preparing boundary conditions, material models, and running simulations on components or assemblies. Collaboration with mechanical designers, manufacturing engineers, and project managers is frequent to ensure simulation outcomes are incorporated into product development. Additionally, documentation, reporting, and sometimes supporting testing or validation activities round out the typical daily tasks.

Job description

Locations: Billings, MT; Boise, ID; Englewood, CO; Green Bay, WI; Madison, WI; Orlando, FL; Tucson, AZ
Electrical Consultants, Inc. (ECI) is a leading power engineering consultant firm that provides engineering, system planning and studies, technical consultation, project management, surveying, environmental planning, commissioning/testing and construction services to electric utilities, energy developers and industrials throughout the U.S. Our experience includes system voltages from 4.16 kV through 765 kV.
ECI has immediate openings for transmission line engineers at any of the locations identified above. A hybrid work model to work from home is possible.
Responsibilities include the conceptual, preliminary and final detailed design of new and upgraded transmission lines, including material procurement and construction support through line energization. The successful candidate will work under the direction and mentorship of a senior level engineer to develop design calculations, detail drawings, specifications, and other documents for the construction of power line facilities. Specific responsibilities include creating project scope documents; finite element design modeling using PLS-CADD software; engineering design of structures and foundations; developing loading, framing, foundation and plan & profile drawing sets; creating staking sheets, sag charts, and other construction exhibits; producing material and construction specifications; and performing other design tasks as needed. Additional responsibilities may include assisting with the planning and execution of best-in-class projects, including client and stakeholder coordination, training and mentoring of design staff, project quality assurance, and oversight of designers, drafters and support staff.
Minimum Requirements: Bachelor of Science or Master's degree in Civil Engineering, Mechanical Engineering or Electrical Engineering; 2+ years' design engineering experience, project engineering experience, or an acceptable combination of education and experience ; excellent verbal and written communication skills ; strong organization and planning skills; ability to work in a team environment; commitment to quality and accuracy; and a willingness to meet fast-paced project schedules. A PE license or the commitment to progress towards PE licensure is preferred. The successful applicant must have fundamental knowledge of transmission engineering principals and applicable codes, standards, and design tools. Experience with basic project management execution skills, and the ability to oversee and direct design personnel on a project team is a plus. The successful applicant may be subject to client-mandated drug and background checking. Occasional travel/driving is required; therefore, the successful applicant will be subject to ECI's auto insurance carrier requirements. Applicants must not require sponsorship for employment visa status (e.g., H-1B visa status) now or in the future.
Salary commensurate with experience and education. Benefits include the following:
  • Medical, dental and vision insurance
  • Flexible spending account
  • Health savings account
  • Life insurance
  • Disability insurance
  • 401(k), profit sharing and employee stock ownership plan
  • Paid vacation, personal days and holidays
