Our award-winning seating solutions are developed from consumer research, finding the ease of operation to be comfortable, convenient and connected.
Job Responsibilities:
Roles & Responsibilities:• CAE Model Development: Prepare detailed Finite Element (FE) models of automotive seating systems and their integration with the vehicle Body-In-White (BIW)/ test fixture data using pre-processing tools like HyperMesh, PRIMER, or ANSA.• Crash Simulation & Analysis: Set up, run, and validate explicit dynamic crash and safety simulations using the LS-DYNA solver.• NVH Simulation & Analysis: Set up, run, and validate NVH analysis (e.g. Modal, FRF, etc.) simulations using the OPTISTRUCT solver.• Regulatory Compliance: Perform analyses to ensure compliance with local and global safety standards and regulations, including AIS,ECE (e.g. R14,R17,R21, etc.),FMVSS (e.g., 207, 208, 210, 225), NCAP protocols (Euro NCAP, G-NCAP, etc.), and UN-EU regulations.• Design Optimization: Interpret simulation results, analyze failure modes, and provide clear recommendations and countermeasures to design teams for product optimization and improvement.• Post-Processing & Reporting: Utilize post-processing tools such as LS-PrePost, HyperView, or d3plot to interpret data (acceleration curves, energy absorption, displacement), prepare comprehensive technical reports, and present findings to customers.• Correlation & Validation: Collaborate with physical testing teams to correlate simulation results with test data, propose refinement in CAE methodologies as needed.• Problem Solving: Identify technical issues, perform root cause analysis, and develop feasible engineering solutions within project deadlines.• Mentorship & Collaboration: Work effectively within cross-functional teams (design, testing, project management) and potentially mentor junior analysts.
Required Qualifications and Skills:• Education: Bachelor's or master's degree in mechanical engineering, Automotive Engineering, or a related field.• Experience: Typically, 5+ years of relevant experience in automotive crash safety analysis, specifically with seating systems.• Technical Proficiency:
o Expertise in explicit dynamics simulation using LS-DYNA.
o Expertise in NVH simulation using OPTISTRUCT.
o Proficiency in pre-processing tools (HyperMesh, PRIMER,ANSA) for meshing, assembly, and load setting.
o Proficiency in post-processing tools (LS-PrePost, HyperView, D3plot).
o Strong fundamentals in structural mechanics, finite element analysis (FEA), non-linear materials, and dynamics.
Awareness, Unity, Empowerment:
At Magna, we believe that a diverse workforce is critical to our success. That's why we are proud to be an equal opportunity employer. We hire on the basis of experience and qualifications, and in consideration of job requirements, regardless of, in particular, color, ancestry, religion, gender, origin, sexual orientation, age, citizenship, marital status, disability or gender identity.
