• To build FE model including application of load, load cases , constraint conditions, material definition, load combinations, etc.
• Solution diagnosis of FE solution and perform desired iterations to get accurate results.
• Able to perform Result interpretations once solution performed.
• Need to perform load calculations wherever required to to build FE models.
•  Utilize simulation tools (MSC NASTRAN MSC APEX, etc.) to ensure product robustness, compliance, and optimization.

· Design & Development Collaboration:

• Partner with product designers to provide simulation insights that enhance design quality and efficiency.
• Participate in design reviews, offering data-backed recommendations to optimize structural integrity and performance.

· CAE Methodology Development:

•  Establish, document, and continuously improve CAE methodologies to standardize simulation practices.
•  Assist in developing FEA competencies within the team, promoting adherence to best practices and accuracy in analyses.

· Project Execution & Coordination:

•  Manage simulation tasks to meet project timelines and quality expectations.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams and stakeholders to ensure cohesive project delivery and effective technical communication.

· Technical Documentation:

• Prepare detailed reports, including assumptions, boundary conditions, and analysis results, for internal stakeholders and client presentations.
• Maintain structured documentation for all analysis activities, ensuring traceability and quality control.
