Job Description

Position Summary

This person and will be responsible for performing linear, nonlinear steady state transient stress analysis, fatigue analysis, vibration analysis for Hydraulic valves and Manifold systems. She/he should be a highly motivated individual and is expected to work with minimal direction.

Principal Activities

• Interact with global Design Engineering teams of CIRCOR to understand objectives, identify relevance of FEA analysis for the case at hand, interpret physics involved, determine most suitable meshing strategy solver schemes to address them, execute the analysis independently using the available software and finally recommend design improvements based on the simulated results.
• Enthusiastically participate in preliminary, informal and formal analysis as required by the customers.
• Should be able to defend analysis results in all the internal and end customers reviews
• Prepare technical reports of analysis with good documentation procedures.
• Prepare concise presentations and communicate results to internal customers or in some cases directly with the end customers.
• Handle multiple projects at the same time and prioritize work efficiently.
• Update work status to reporting manager and assist in planning/ prioritizing works.
• Record, collate and prepare the time sheet, metrics data for on- time delivery, quality (first time right), productivity, utilization KPIs and report on weekly/monthly basis as suggested by the reporting manager.
• Establish standard operating procedures and best practices.
• Stay abreast of technological enhancements in the FEA analysis area and recommend new methods and products to enhance the accuracy, quality, and ease of use of FEA analysis tools.
• Accountable for preparing quality Flow analysis Reports for the BUs for the project(s) is/are carried out.
• Ensure customer approved techniques are used, seek and get approval on the results from customer for every delivery of analysis results and reports.
• Participate in formal reviews like PDR/CDR, own the FEA analysis results and support the review(s).
• Manage FEA analysis projects and ensure that customer schedules requirements are met
