Mechanical Simulation Engineer

Responsibilities

• Perform detailed mechanical calculations and analytical analyses in line with the customer requirements and schedule.
• Conduct Finite Element Analysis (FEA), including static and fatigue analysis to support product development and validation.
• Collaborate closely with design engineers throughout the iterative design process to optimize product performance and efficiency.
• Develop and document comprehensive technical notes and reports summarizing analysis methods, assumptions, and results.
• Present technical analysis findings and support discussions with customers or stakeholders as required.
• Ensure all engineering activities comply with relevant industry standards and technical specifications.
• Contribute to research, technology and innovation projects when possible.
• Occasional trips to suppliers, factories and aircraft manufacturers in the US, France and abroad are expected.
• Join a team of 12 persons composed of design engineers and stress engineers.
• On‑boarding will allow you to understand the products and the internal processes.

• Excellent problem‑solving skills and attention to detail.
• Effective communication skills to clearly present technical information to both technical and non‑technical audiences.
• Ability to work collaboratively in a multidisciplinary team environment.
• Time management: ability to effectively prioritize tasks and manage multiple projects simultaneously.
• Autonomy: able to work independently with minimal supervision.

• Master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering or a related field.
• Professional experience of at least 3 years.
• Strong understanding of fatigue analysis principles, static load assessments, damage tolerance and strength of materials (RDM).
• Proven experience in mechanical stress analysis, both analytical and FEA‑based.
• Proficiency with FEA software tools (ANSYS, Abaqus, Nastran).
• Experience with CAD software such as CATIA, Solid Works or equivalent.
• Skills in drafting technical documentation, reports and justification documents to meet certification requirements.
• Knowledge of manufacturing processes (forged, cast, machined, heat‑treated components).

• ITAR Controlled Position: role requires U.S. citizenship or permanent residency.
