REQ ID: 111890JOB TITLE: CAE EngineerSALARY: £43,000 - £54,000POSTING END DATE: 14/12/22LOCATION: GaydonWe’re re-examining our vehicles and what a vehicle means in the emerging world of automation, connectedness, electrification and the shared economy. New ideas, new technology, and new approaches to mobility are our business. Join a team of next generation thinkers.What To ExpectAs a capable CAE engineer, you should be able to define and model physical tests to validate and guide the vehicle using the ABAQUS, OPTISTRUCT and ALTAIR toolsets. Working closely with the physical test labs, your experience in modelling various loadcases will help develop vehicle attribute requirements (Design, Crash, D&R, Thermal, Aero, etc).You should be able to use sound engineering judgement to independently model and extract relevant outputs to determine the underlying engineering fundamentals and identify any concerns - organising physical tests where relevant. You will be proposing well evidenced design changes to the Body Exteriors team, the wider Engineering dept as well as becoming a key partner with Body CAE, Aero, D&R and Programme teams. Using optimisation techniques to reduce component cost/weight and development time are key to this role.You will operate in a cross-functional Agile squad but will report directly to the Exteriors CAE Group Leader whilst supporting the programme Lead Engineers, Exterior Module Leaders, Exteriors Product Integration team and the Exteriors Quality teamKey Accountabilities And Responsibilities- Procure material, component and subsystem part samples for physical testing
- Organise impact, quasi static and cyclic loading tests on above samples
- Create, refine and correlate CAE models of impact and quasi static tests.
- Support Off-cycle process development and On-cycle engineering delivery teams towards understanding of complex technical issues, with insight gained from validated CAE models.
- Keep abreast of competitor and industry trends applicable to relevant Exterior parts.
- Undertake any other work as directed by their line manager in connection with their job as may be requested
- Experience in the use of ABAQUS or OPTISTRUCT for implicit non-linear FEA analysis and the associated pre/post-processing tools (Altair HW, ANSA etc) to guide product design.
- Ability to solve complex technical issues and overcoming challenges using creative and innovative solutions.
- Experience in reducing a large complex problem into smaller reduced DOF sub-systems to rapidly improve and optimise component design.
- Experience in analysis and design of vehicle exterior and underbody parts for durability assessments.
- Experience in the use of explicit FE solvers e.g. LS-Dyna and the associated pre/post-processing tools (Oasys PRIMER, D3Plot, THis) for impact analyses of system/ sub-system/ component designs.
- Engineering knowledge of exterior components - function, performance, production & manufacturing requirements.
- Competence in the use of other related tools such as macro programming using Fast-TCF, Excel VBA, TCL, Perl or Python.
