Role Summary

Senior Engineer - Modeling and Simulation

Responsibilities

  • Identifying requirements and specifications suitable for in-silico evaluation of combination products.
  • Applying finite element analysis (FEA) and modeling and simulation (M&S) principles to develop, deploy, enhance, automate, and manage in-silico models for combination products.
  • Implementing in-silico models in commercial and proprietary software and deploying these models to internal users via enterprise modeling infrastructure.
  • Demonstrating critical and analytical thinking skills to explore new opportunities in in-silico and data-driven computational models and simulate complaints and real-world issues within lifecycle of combination products.
  • Providing positive leadership and delivering work in a fast-paced, multi-project, cross-functional environment.
  • Demonstrating modeling and visualization approaches as part of proof-of-concept projects.
  • Taking ownership of developing and managing backlog of in-silico product content in Scrum and SAFe (Scale Agile Framework).
  • Collaborating with internal stakeholders such as design engineering, data scientists, and quality teams, and documenting the technical basis of models for broader engineering and scientific communities.
