Perform structural analyses by independently conducting static strength and dynamic simulations with minimal supervision, applying relevant industry standards and engineering best practices.
Execute engineering calculations using hand methods to size components and validate or cross-check numerical analysis results.
Conduct advanced CAE simulations by performing finite element analysis (FEA) on complex systems and multi-physics problems, defining effective modeling strategies, and balancing accuracy with computational efficiency.
Develop and enhance analysis tools by designing automation frameworks and leading the creation of custom solutions for model setup, simulation execution, and result interpretation.
Collaborate across disciplines by integrating inputs from various engineering domains into structural analyses and working closely with subject matter experts to ensure consistency and accuracy.
Support testing activities by contributing to test planning, predicting structural behavior, assisting with sensor placement and load case definition, and correlating simulation results with physical test data.
Provide production and quality support by participating in Non-Conformance Review Boards (NRBs), proposing technical solutions, supporting root cause analysis, and contributing to First Article Inspections (FAI) and operator training when required.
Prepare technical documentation and reports by independently producing high-quality deliverables, maintaining traceability between requirements and outputs, and clearly communicating project status to stakeholders.
Drive problem-solving and decision-making by applying structured methodologies, evaluating evidence, identifying biases, and making sound technical decisions while considering cost, schedule, and business constraints.
Contribute to innovation and R&D by gathering and interpreting data, participating in brainstorming sessions, applying research methodologies, and leveraging lessons learned to improve engineering solutions.
Support business development activities by contributing technical inputs to bids, proposals, Engineering Change Proposals (ECPs), and Contract Change Notices (CCNs).
Mentor and support team development by assisting in training material creation, coaching junior engineers and interns, and supporting onboarding activities.
Manage tasks and project progress by tracking budgets and milestones, identifying risks and blockers, and ensuring efficient allocation of resources.
Support product development and lifecycle activities by maintaining knowledge of the product portfolio, interacting with hardware, and contributing to continuous product improvement initiatives.
