Job Description
This position is an opportunity for an engineer to join our BCP structural analysis team as a structural analyst. This global team is primarily US-based but also has engineers in the UK and India.
You will be responsible for evaluating and developing heavy structures including main frames linkages and undercarriages. You will use finite element analysis tools to develop components to meet structural goals of strength stiffness fatigue life and natural frequency while meeting manufacturing and cost constraints. You will work closely with design teams to develop new product and resolve field issues. Your work will include building solving and correlating finite element models as well as supporting validation tests and processing test data. You will demonstrate a strong sense of urgency and determination to resolve issues while maintaining high quality standards.
Job Responsibilities and Duties:
Building and running FEA models using NASTRAN LS-Dyna and Creo-Simulate. Typical projects will involve static linear and non-linear analysis solutions with some dynamic impact analysis.
Working with designers and contributing own ideas to develop efficient solutions to structural issues.
Supporting validation testing with gage maps and data analysis.
Correlation of FEA models to match test data.
Working with analysis team to continually improve analysis efficiency and quality.
Involving other engineers and technical resources to address detailed technical problems.
Clearly communicating analysis results through verbal presentations and written reports.
