Senior SME Simulation Engineer

Work with the Global Engineering team and technical leads to perform FEA on valve components, assemblies with the goal to provide design and development recommendations.

The simulation is giving guidance how to reduce weight of components and assemblies.

Conduct linear and nonlinear structural analyses, including:

Static stress analysis

Fatigue and life assessment

Thermal stress analysis

Contact and sealing simulations

Evaluate valve performance under high pressure, temperature, and corrosive environments.

Perform fluid-structure interaction (FSI) or support CFD–FEA coupling for flow-induced stresses and vibrations.

Provide recommendations for improving:

Structural integrity

Sealing performance

Cost efficiency

Support product development from concept to validation

Ensure designs comply with relevant industry standards such as:

API (e.g., API 6D, API 600, API 602)

ISO and PED requirements

Conduct analyses for pressure boundary qualification and safety factors.

Correlate simulation results with experimental data (pressure tests, burst tests, fatigue testing).

Support root cause analysis (RCA) for field failures and non-conformances.

Develop and maintain simulation validation methodologies

You consistently deliver high-quality work by applying strong analytical thinking and sound engineering judgment.

You collaborate effectively across diverse teams and build productive relationships with stakeholders worldwide.

You readily adapt to new challenges, embrace innovative technologies, and continuously seek opportunities to improve processes and outcomes.

You communicate technical concepts clearly, make informed recommendations, and remain focused on achieving results that support broader organizational objectives.

Proven experience of using FEA tools like Ansys, Abaqus

Develop scripts or automation to improve simulation efficiency

Knowledge of international standards for pressure equipment, such as ASME, API, EN, ISO (PED), BS valve standards

Excellent working experience in CAD software, such as Inventor, AutoCAD, Solidworks

Knowledge and experience in design for manufacturability using machining processes is essential, with experience in casting design considered an advantage

Strong knowledge of solid mechanics and material behaviour, nonlinear analysis, fatigue and fracture mechanics

Strong communication skills

Must be well organized, detail oriented and capable of handling multiple tasks simultaneously.

Willingness to work outside traditional work hours to interact with supporting locations globally
