jobbeskrivelse:

What do we offer?

Are you passionate about mechanical simulations (FEA) and motivated by developing new technologies that contribute to solving the world's water and climate challenges?

Grundfos has a strong strategic focus on Simulation Driven Development. Our vision is to develop all products with extensive usage of simulations to design, optimize and verify performance. As our new Senior FEA Specialist, you will have a great opportunity to play an important part in realizing the vision.

The position is in the Mechanics & Materials department, which is part of the Core Technology organization in Grundfos, and you will refer to the Head of Mechanics & Materials, Jakob Vernersen. The department is responsible for building new technologies and capabilities as well as providing advanced technical support across the organization. The department consists of a mix between simulation specialist, mechanical engineers and materials specialists. We value initiative, responsibility and the right balance between in-depth studies, efficiency, quality and an innovative mindset. You will become part of a highly professional environment with a strong technical commitment. Moreover, we offer a challenging workplace with excellent professional and personal development opportunities in an inspiring, international work environment.

What is the job about?

As our new FEA Specialist, you will be responsible for performing advanced mechanical simulations (FEA) in technology projects to develop new and innovative solutions, and to provide FEA support to stakeholders across the value chain which engenders a variety of challenging and exciting assignments. Furthermore, you will be responsible for scouting, developing and validating new simulation methods and tools to be used in our Global R&D organization. This may be done in collaboration with external partners such as universities and simulation software providers.

You will spend the majority of your time on advanced mechanical simulations, performing non-linear analyses that include large deformations, plasticity and multiple contacts. You conduct modal and harmonic analyses of large assemblies and carry out fatigue and fracture simulations on plastic, metal and ceramic components. Moreover, you apply state of the art methods - e.g. Multi-physics (FSI), coupled simulations, topology optimization and you perform optimization studies to develop high performing solutions.

You translate simulation results into understandable findings and communicate these to relevant stakeholders. You also apply your knowledge of mechanics, materials and physics to provide advice on design improvements and you produce high quality documentation.

"This is a position where you will apply simulations to solve complex mechanical challenges and develop innovative solutions using state-of-the-art simulation tools. You will also be developing new simulation methods and tools to be used in our global R&D organization", Jakob says.

What do you need to apply?

You hold an M.Sc. or Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering or similar and have a deep understanding of structural mechanics, physics and materials. This combined with 3-5 years of experience in R&D activities, working with Finite Element Analysis - static, dynamic, modal, fatigue, fracture, as well as multi-physics simulations (E.g. FSI). Moreover, it is an advantage if you have knowledge of optimization, programming (E.g. Python, APDL, vertical applications) and simulation model validation by experiments. Experience with ANSYS, CATIA and High Performance Computing (HPC) is also an advantage. Lastly, you speak and write English fluently.

"On a personal level, you are a proactive team player with a driving mindset. You carry out simulations and find solutions independently using your analytical and systematic skills. And finally, your interpersonal skills allow you to translate your specialist knowledge into understandable insights and solutions for design engineers and specialists within other engineering disciplines", Jakob finishes.
