Engineering Manager - FEA Lead

• ◆Provide both technical leadership and team leadership with active execution, requiring ~60% of their time performing hands-on analysis and ~40% on team leadership/management.
• ◆Serve as primary technical expert in FEA and CAE, guiding complex simulations involving non-linear material behavior, fatigue, dynamics, impact and multi-physics interactions. Develop and validate advanced analysis methodologies that support engine, drive system, and structural component development.
• ◆Mentor junior, mid‑level and senior analysts, providing coaching/guidance on modeling approaches, simulation setup, scripting, correlation techniques, and interpretation of results.
• ◆Manage and balance the workload for a group of 4–6 analysts, ensuring high‑quality deliverables and on‑time execution.
• ◆Coordinate work packages between onsite and offshore teams, inclusive of managing project timelines, ensuring clear communication between teams, and maintaining high standards of quality and consistency in deliverables.
• ◆Collaborate with design, test, and manufacturing teams to support design decisions, DFMEA inputs, and program milestones.
• ◆Work closely with design and development engineers to help provide design input and perform trade-off studies that will improve the product, inclusive of evaluating different design options and assessing their impact on performance, weight, cost, and recommending the best solutions.
• ◆Document analysis findings and share the results with stakeholders, engineering partners, and leaders. This includes preparing detailed reports, presenting findings in meetings, and providing actionable recommendations based on analysis results.
• ◆Identify potential areas for new method development and work with experts to test and deploy.
• ◆Continuously seeking opportunities for improving analysis processes, tools, and methodologies.

Diversity of thought and experiences is fundamental when imagining the unimaginable. Certain skillsets/experiences are necessary; however, others can be developed along the way.
