Functieomschrijving

As a Thermal-Mechanical Simulation Expert, you will play a crucial role in the design and optimization of electronic printed circuit board assemblies for various application fields such as space, automotive and power. You will be responsible for conducting advanced thermal and mechanical modelling to ensure, validate models with experiments and predict the reliability and efficiency in harsh environmental conditions. Your expertise will help us pushing the boundaries of technology and deliver superior solutions to our collaboration partners.

What you will do

  • Perform thermal and mechanical simulations of electronic assemblies using industry-standard software tools.
  • Analyse simulation results to identify potential issues and optimize designs for thermal and mechanical performance.
  • Develop and validate simulation models to predict the thermal-mechanical behaviour of electronic under various conditions. Conduct experimental validation and adjust simulation results by defining and executing experimental tests and material characterization.
  • Stay updated with the latest advancements in thermal-mechanical simulation techniques, in material characterisation techniques, in validation methods and in tools such as AI-based computational learning and prediction techniques to enhance simulation accuracy and efficiency.
  • Prepare detailed reports and presentations to communicate simulation findings and recommendations to stakeholders.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams, including design, manufacturing, and quality assurance, to ensure seamless integration of simulation insights into product development.

Profiel

Who you are

  • Master's or Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering, Material Science, or a related field.
  • Proven experience in thermal and mechanical simulation in electronic systems.
  • Proficiency in simulation software such as MARC, ANSYS, COMSOL, or similar tools.
  • Strong understanding of material physics, mechanical behaviour, heat transfer.
  • Experience with experimental validation of simulation results.
  • Experience w/ AI based computational modelling is a plus.
  • Excellent problem-solving skills and attention to detail.
  • Ability to work effectively in a team environment and communicate complex technical concepts clearly.
  • Experience in project responsibilities and writing funded proposal is a plus.
