Carry out first-stage sizing calculations to enable early decision making. Construct detailed FEA models, featuring composites laminates and high-performance metals. Apply experience of modelling techniques, including linear static, non-linear contact, buckling, normal modes linear and non-linear solvers, following RBAT’s rules and procedures. Be familiar with fatigue failure modes and experienced in carrying out service life calculations. Take ownership of assigned projects: requesting data and consulting with Design Engineers where required to carry out each analysis efficiently, and to escalate where issues and/or risks present themselves. Supplement FEA studies with hand calculations and engineering reasoning to explain and validate FEA results. Seek opportunities for mass reduction and product optimisation, including performance, manufacturing, and cost. To be considered for this position, you will:
Be educated to degree level or equivalent within Engineering, Design or a similar discipline. Have experience within a similar role, ideally within Motorsport, Automotive, Aerospace or a fast-paced Engineering environment. Be proficient in finite element analysis and optimisation of high-performance composite and metallic structures. Be experienced in analysis for fatigue and defining the service life of high-performance components. Be a concise, effective communicator using written and verbal English language. Have a proactive, passionate and flexible attitude. Not only is this a fantastic role, but it is also a fantastic team to work for. A good salary is just the start, there are many other benefits too such as our bonus scheme, private health care cover, life assurance scheme, workplace nursery, company contributed pension scheme, on site gym & fitness classes, free food, and a cycle to work scheme.
