Senior Structural R&D Engineer

The opportunity

As an Experienced Structural R&D Engineer, you will join Global Multi-Physics Simulation (GLOMUS) network team. You will be part of a group of key people with specific expertise in the fields of electrical, structural, acoustic, thermo-mechanic and fluid-dynamics analyses, simulation and testing.

As part of our global R&D community, including Technology Centers and Research Centers worldwide, you will contribute to supporting all factories in the Product Group Transformers, Insulation and Components on innovative and challenging development projects. You will focus on developing new technologies and products, optimizing existing ones and supporting different engineering offices around the world.

How you will make an impact

• You will be responsible for creating and improving analytical tools and finite element methodologies and automations for structural, static, fatigue and dynamic analysis
• Be part of the design process and propose new ideas through concept design, prototyping and verification all the way to production.
• Support new product development projects focusing on mechanical design and simulation tasks involving multi-disciplinary areas - for example static, dynamic, thermal and seismic simulations.
• Perform mechanical and seismic feasibility studies including design calculations, preparation of design specifications and technical documents.
• Provide timely and effective support to facilitate the transfer of technology and knowledge from GLOMUS to other technical centers
• Preparation of 3D CAD Models, drawings, FE-simulation models, test procedures and documentation
• Living Hitachi Energy's core values of safety and integrity, which means taking responsibility for your own actions while caring for your colleagues and the business.
• Responsible to ensure compliance with applicable external and internal regulations, procedures, and guidelines

Your background

• Master's degree in mechanical, aerospace engineering or physics, with a strong foundation in structural dynamics and vibrations
• 3+ years of relevant experience in Mechanical, static, fatigue, dynamic simulations is a must
• Deep understanding of mechanical core competences, material selection, manufacturing methods.
• Knowledge of high voltage products would be a plus
• Advanced skills in numerical methods for Mechanical simulations. Experience with software suites like ANSYS Workbench or COMSOL is preferential
• Knowledge of programming languages such as MATLAB, Mathcad, Python and Ansys ACT are important for creating custom simulations and analyzing data
• Good proficiency in 3D-CAD modeling and knowledge of cPLM and Windchill is desired
• Experience with structural testing, fiber optics and application of different sensors (e.g., strain gauges, load cells, accelerometers) is a plus
• You bring a high level of self-motivation, curiosity and desire to learn new technologies and simulation methodologies
• Ability to work independently with minimal supervision as well as in a team collaborate effectively to deliver high-quality results on time
• As you will be part of a global business, willingness to travel and fluency in written and spoken English is required
