Lead FEA Engineer

• Conduct static, transient, linear, nonlinear, fatigue (LCF/HCF), thermal, and structural analyses of wind turbine components using ANSYS Workbench
• Evaluate the structural integrity of components by analyzing stress, strain, displacement, and other relevant parameters under various load conditions.
• Interpret FEA results, identify potential areas for improvement, and propose design modifications to optimize component performance and reliability.
• Drive technical solutions and reviews with a design team and multiple sub-suppliers and solution providers.
• Investigate failures, conduct root cause analysis, and implement solutions to prevent recurring issues in wind turbine components.
• Identify opportunities to improve FEA processes, documentation, and design methodologies.
• Prepare and document detailed reports summarizing the FEA analysis, results, and recommendations.
• Participate in hiring, training, mentoring and reviewing junior engineers.
• Embraces a proactive approach to quality, by adhering to best practices and QMS processes.

• Postgraduate in Mechanical engineering with 8+ years of experience.
• Proficiency in FE tools like ANSYS (Classic/workbench) is a must.
