Our team of engineers, structural analysts, designers and drafters have a talent level unseen in the design of mobile equipment. We are highly flexible, motivated, innovative, and can tackle any challenge that our customers face. We also specialize in rapid design projects to enable our customers’ success.
•Design new and innovative mechanical design concepts of machinery and components from concept to production.
•These would be heavy structural assemblies, subweldments, machined parts, piece parts, and sheet metal.
•· Pre-process and assimilate CAD models in preparation for finite element analysis using ANSYS software
•Apply relevant boundary conditions and mesh geometries
•Run analysis and troubleshoot results
•Validate model through hand calculations and predictions
•Modify geometry in both ANSYS and CAD software to accommodate design changes
•Publish results through written reports
•Defend results through peer reviews
•Serve as a team member supporting major design projects
•BSME with 10+ years or MSME with 5+ years of hands on, demonstrated FEA experience with the analysis of major components of heavy equipment that could be mobile or stationary equipment
•Must have experience using ANSYS software within the past year an absolute requirement
•Must have an excellent working knowledge of both ANSYS APDL and Workbench platforms
•Must have experience designing steel, aluminum, or plastic structures with knowledge in joining methods

•Must be very strong in Engineering Mechanics fundamentals and must be able to hand calculate to defend analytical outputs
•Must be able to work independently with the analysis process to produce and verify input and output data.
•Must have experience setting up and validating analyses with linear and non linear system responses, such as contact, large deflection, buckling, modal, harmonic, rate dependent plasticity, bi- or mulit-linear behavioral responses, etc.
•Must be capable of correlating and communicating analysis data with test data to the engineers for review.
•Must have expert familiarity using Word processing and EXCEL spreadsheets
•Must have prior experiences submitting official engineering reports to superiors or customers for ultimate approvals
•Must be able to transfer 3D models in various CAD systems into a preliminary workable FEA model.
•Must exhibit boundaryless behavior and a “get it done” attitude
:
•Working knowledge of 3D CAD systems, especially Solidworks or Inventor.
•Design for manufacturing experience
•Robust design principles
•Ability to “Think on your feet”
The Ideal candidate will be one seeking a wide variety of technical challenges and would like to be working on a variety of challenging technical projects in many different market centers.
