THE ROLE As an Analysis Engineer within our Analysis Team, you will play a critical role in the development of Tesla next generation products. Tesla is synonymous with industry leading crash safety performance and in this role, you will be responsible for analyzing and optimizing this performance with revolutionary vehicle designs. You will be brilliant both technically as an individual, and as an active member in a diverse and challenging cross-functional team environment. You will work with Vehicle Engineering teams to analyze the performance of future vehicle designs and with Test Engineering teams to develop tests, correlate simulation models, and improve the predictive capability of Analysis Engineering at Tesla. RESPONSIBILITIES • Construct CAE models and perform simulations related to vehicle crash structure performance, occupant safety, pedestrian protection, and HV systems on a vehicle level. • Verify the results from the simulations comply with multiple various crash safety requirements. • Optimize body, closure, battery, and other sub-systems based on your analysis results to improve the crashworthiness of design vehicle architectures. • Apply your knowledge of Finite Element Analysis, Applied Solid Mechanics, and Material Science in a product development environment. • Get involved in methodology development to improve CAE modelling efficiency. • Basic level of working ability with scripting in Python is a plus. REQUIREMENTS • Bachelor's degree from Engineering department is required. Master's or PhD’s degree is preferred. • Minimum 2 years of demonstrated successful experience as CAE engineer in the automotive sector. • Successful experience with at least 1 full vehicle development as CAE engineer in the core development team. • Theoretical knowledge of finite element analysis. • Excellent applied software experience in LS-Dyna and Primer. Pre- and post-processor experience in ANSA/Meta or HyperWorks is required. • Experience working with aluminum, steel, composite structures, and a variety of advanced joining methods for crashworthiness. • Demonstrated ability to work independently and with teams on problems that are challenging to solve and require innovative solutions. • Demonstrated ability to deconstruct complex test scenarios with good logic and analysis, root-causing and resolving correlation issues. • Demonstrated ability in iterative and collaborative engineering environments – success in roles requiring high level of technical communication and interpretation of analytical results to design engineers and technical leadership. • English speaking proficiency.
