Position Overview:
As an Engineering Manager - Finite Element Analysis (FEA Lead) you will lead a high-performing team of analysis engineers supporting the design and development of conventional marine internal combustion engines, drive systems, electrified propulsion and vessels. The ideal candidate must bring a blend of deep FEA expertise, strong people-leadership skills, and a passion for elevating engineering analysis capabilities across the organization. You'll coach engineers through challenging analysis problems, guide long-term technical vision, and partner closely with cross-functional design, test, and manufacturing teams to influence product architecture and ensure robust engineering decisions.
At Brunswick, we have passion for our work and a distinct ability to deliver.
Essential Functions:

• Provide both technical leadership and team leadership with active execution, requiring ~60% of their time performing hands-on analysis and ~40% on team leadership/management.
• Serve as primary technical expert in FEA and CAE, guiding complex simulations involving non-linear material behavior, fatigue, dynamics, impact and multi-physics interactions. Develop and validate advanced analysis methodologies that support engine, drive system, and structural component development.
• Mentor junior, mid-level and senior analysts, providing coaching/guidance on modeling approaches, simulation setup, scripting, correlation techniques, and interpretation of results.
• Manage and balance the workload for a group of 4-6 analysts, ensuring high-quality deliverables and on-time execution.
• Coordinate work packages between onsite and offshore teams, inclusive of managing project timelines, ensuring clear communication between teams, and maintaining high standards of quality and consistency in deliverables.
• Collaborate with design, test, and manufacturing teams to support design decisions, DFMEA inputs, and program milestones.
• Work closely with design and development engineers to help provide design input and perform trade-off studies that will improve the product, inclusive of evaluating different design options and assessing their impact on performance, weight, cost, and recommending the best solutions.
• Document analysis findings and share the results with stakeholders, engineering partners, and leaders. This includes preparing detailed reports, presenting findings in meetings, and providing actionable recommendations based on analysis results.
• Identify potential areas for new method development and work with experts to test and deploy.
• Continuously seeking opportunities for improving analysis processes, tools, and methodologies.

Diversity of thought and experiences is fundamental when imagining the unimaginable. Certain skillsets/experiences are necessary; however, others can be developed along the way.
Required Qualifications:

• Bachelors degree in Mechanical Engineering or related field.
• 10+ years of experience in Computer Aided Engineering (CAE).
• 3+ years of experience in leading/managing a group of engineers performing Finite Element Analysis (FEA) using Abaqus, Ansys, or similar commercial software.
• Strong fundamental understanding of statics, dynamics, engineering mechanics and materials.
• Exposure to numerical methods and engineering analysis.

Preferred Qualifications:

• MS or PhD in Mechanical Engineering with emphasis in solid mechanics, vibrations, dynamics, finite element method, mechanics of materials, fatigue theory, IC engines and e-Machines.
• Experience in the following areas: FEA using Abaqus, Dynamic FEA (modal analysis & forced response), Explicit Dynamic FEA (impact), Multi Body Dynamics Analysis using MSC Adams, Non-linear stress analysis (material, contact, large deflection), FEA based fatigue analysis (feSafe/CAE Fatige experience preferred), Mesh generation and model set-up (Altair SimLab/HyperMesh and/or Abaqus/CAE).
• Usage of High-Performance Computing (HPC) cluster with Linux OS and Slurm scheduler.
• Working knowledge of conventional engines and marine propulsion systems.
• Knowledge of test instrumentation (strain gauges, accelerometers, thermocouples, pressure transducers, flow meters, etc.,.).

The anticipated pay range for this position is $103,200 - $164,500 annually. The actual base pay offered will vary depending on multiple factors including job-related knowledge/skills, relevant experience, business needs, and geographic location.
