Position Overview
We are seeking a highly skilled Simulation Engineer specializing in Siemens Simcenter Amesim to join our engineering team. In this role, you will leverage 1D multi-physics system simulation to model, analyze, and optimize intelligent, complex mechatronic systems. You will be instrumental in validating product performance, mitigating developmental risks, and validating control strategies from the initial conceptual design phase through to final virtual validation.
Key Responsibilities
- System Modeling & Simulation: Build dynamic, time-dependent 1D multi-physics system models using Simcenter Amesim to evaluate mechanical, hydraulic, pneumatic, thermal, and electrical domains.
- Performance Optimization: Analyze transient system-level interactions and convert raw engineering data into optimized energy flows, thermal efficiencies, and mechanical motions.
- Control Strategy Validation: Support virtual commissioning and verify controller logic by co-simulating Amesim models with control packages like MATLAB/Simulink.
- Cross-Platform Integration: Manage open-environment interfaces using FMI (Functional Mock-up Interface) and Modelica to connect 1D models with 3D CAE software (e.g., Simcenter STAR-CCM+) and PLM systems (Siemens Teamcenter).
- Prototype Reduction: Use virtual testing data to guide physical design cycles, aiming to balance system performance and successfully reduce physical prototype iterations.
Required Skills and Qualifications
- Education: Bachelor's or Master's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Mechatronics, Electrical. Aerospace Engineering, Control Systems, or a related technical field.
- Software Expertise: Proven hands-on experience using Siemens Simcenter Amesim for multi-domain system architectures.
- Technical Knowledge: Strong foundation in system dynamics, fluid power (hydraulics/pneumatics), thermodynamics, and electrical systems.
- Control Systems: Proficiency with MATLAB/Simulink and an understanding of closed-loop control design.
- Standards & Tools: Experience with FMI/FMU standards, Python scripting for automation, or Siemens Teamcenter PLM is highly desirable.
