Responsibility:
Extensive Hands-on model build experience using Ansa tool
- Oversee activity of external build team to ensure on time delivery of high-quality Safety, NVH, Durability and Dynamics models.
- Work with Attribute leads to understand model build requirements at each project phase/virtual series loop.
- Define defensible timing plans for model delivery. Communicate timing to wider business –Attribute leads, Function Teams and Program. Set expectation for timing of inputs to meet the build timing plan.
- Proactively gather CAD and non-geometry inputs (joining, materials, mass, build guidelines, etc.) to support build. Pursue and highlight missing or late inputs to avoid delivery delays
- Interface directly with function teams to resolve any concerns in provided CAD and correctly represent design intent in CAE.
- Maintain live tracking of model build status and expected delivery date.
- Manage individual/ad hoc requests for model build or updates –ensure all affected teams accept any new requests and impacts (on timing) are clear
- Understand structural analysis models and their requirements. This should cover multiple disciplines/model types (ideally including occupant safety modelling).
- Organizes workflow within team to optimize process and time required. Feedback to OEM on opportunities to improve process
Qualification:
- BE/B. Tech or ME/MTech in Mechanical/Production/ Automotive Engineering
- 6 to 12 years preferably in automotive application
- Should have minimum 9600 hours work experience in any CAE Pre-and Post-processor, Preferably Hyper mesh/ ANSA/ Abaqus / NCode / FemFAT or any other reverent CAE tools.
- Experience in analysis and post processing of full BIW level Durability Evaluation and fatigue analysis and sub system level static load analysis.
- Past experience in providing BIW / closures related counter measures and design suggestions. Knowledge of optimization techniques and processes.
- Experience in CAE to test co-relation, vehicle target settings and refinements as per latest automotive trends.
- Theoretical knowledge of finite element analysis. Good communication, report writing, technical documentation and presentation skills.
- Knowledge of different regulatory and non-regulatory requirements.
- Preference for cross domain basic knowledge of NVH and Durability.
- Should have handled projects with minimum team size of 3 or more.
