Powertrain - FEA Analysis Engineer - GM

FEA Analysis Engineer
The Finite Element Analysis Engineer will perform FEA analysis for a wide variety of engine/transmission components. Responsibilities will include conducting FE analyses to assess and/or modify the structural design of these components to meet design requirements.
Specific job duties are:
 Retrieve and modify Unigraphics models of engine components to support the development of FEA models
 Generate tetrahedral, hexahedral, hybrid FEA mesh, as appropriate, to define structural analysis domain
 Identify and confirm model set-up and boundary conditions, execute analysis, and perform post-processing of FEA results
 Provide component-level and/or system-level design recommendations to Design Responsible Engineers based on interpretation of analysis results
 Participate in product design and development teams and regularly present analysis results to engineering peers and management
 Document analysis objectives, conclusions, results, and assumptions using a standard report template
 Generate technical solutions for complex design problems in current, new and major programs
 Develop engineering designs (including subsystems)
 Stays abreast of new technology in FEA
