Principal Structural Analysis Engineer

Key responsibilities: Lead the development and application of first-principles engineering analysis and FEA modeling to evaluate solution concepts Execute high-fidelity non-linear structural and thermal-mechanical simulations to assess product performance and reliability Collaborate with design engineers to define simulation parameters and ensure effective model verification and validation processes

Required qualifications: Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Materials Science, or related field; Master's or Ph.D. preferred 8-10+ years of experience in high-fidelity FEA and structural/thermal-mechanical analysis Expertise in commercial FEA platforms, particularly Ansys Mechanical, with a focus on non-linear materials and thermal-stress coupling Strong experience in test correlation and model calibration techniques Familiarity with 3D CAD platforms and cloud/HPC simulation environments is a plus
