Set up and run FEM analyses: linear/nonlinear static, modal transient, random, frequency response, explicit, durability.
Analyze vibrational behavior, derive FRFs, and interpret mode shapes to optimize performance.
Apply DOE, response surfaces, optimization, and uncertainty analyses to explore design space and quantify risk.
Plan and perform tests for model correlation and validation.
Partner with test teams on accelerated life testing, translating field data into test requirements and simulation inputs.
Script pre/post-processing (Python, MATLAB) to scale studies and improve modeling quality.
Document standards, templates, and best practices; propose new methods to capture physics and speed up iteration.
Work closely with product development, manufacturing, supplier quality, and production teams, guiding decisions with technical data.
Deliver clear reports and presentations explaining assumptions, modeling choices, limitations, and design implications.
