CAE Engineer

Job Title: HV Battery Structural CAE Engineer

We are looking for an experienced structural CAE engineer to lead high-voltage battery internals and related system structural design using CAE tools. You will work with battery design and release engineers on cutting-edge battery technologies to ensure the battery functional environment operates within specified conditions. As a collaborative team player, you will create impact by working across the Electrified Powertrain Engineering organization and with key stakeholders of the battery business.

Experience

Required:

• 4+ years of experience working with structural components and designs in an engineering environment.
• Experience using ABAQUS, Hypermesh, ncode or FeSafe and 3DX.
• 5 or more years of experience specifically in CAE structural modeling and simulation analysis techniques using ABAQUS or equivalent, including experience selecting appropriate solution procedures for complex non-linear problems.
• Working knowledge of ABAQUS, Opti Struct Non-Linear, Hyper Mesh, Hyper View, ABAQUS Viewer, Teamcenter, 3
  
  DEXPERIENCE (3DX), or equivalent tools (ANSYS, etc.).
• Working knowledge of CAE tools for fatigue assessments such as FEMFAT, nCode, fe-safe, or equivalent.
• Strong experience in correlating complex non-linear CAE models with physical test data, including sensitivity analysis and model tuning for improved accuracy.
• Working knowledge and experience using CAE pre-processing tools such as Hyper Mesh or equivalent for geometry cleanup and meshing, and ABAQUS, Nastran, or equivalent for CAE model solving and post-processing.
• Proficiency in ABAQUS scripting (Python) for model automation and advanced post-processing.
• Familiarity with sheet metal design specifications, sealing design, structural testing setup, and data collection.
• Familiarity with thermal-mechanical coupled analysis that considers temperature-dependent material properties, thermal expansion, and effects on structural integrity.
