About the Role

Our client, an innovative engineering consultancy firm, is seeking a highly skilled Mechanical Engineer with a strong background in structural design and analysis for a fully remote position. This role is adecuado for an engineer passionate about designing and verifying the integrity of complex mechanical structures across diverse applications, from industrial machinery to aerospace components. Working remotely, you will leverage advanced simulation tools and your deep understanding of mechanics of materials to ensure the safety, reliability, and efficiency of critical structural designs. We are looking for a detail-oriented, self-motivated individual who excels in a virtual collaborative environment and is committed to delivering high-quality engineering solutions.

Key Responsibilities

- Perform structural analysis of mechanical components and assemblies using Finite Element Analysis (FEA) software.
- Design and optimize structural components to meet strength, stiffness, and durability requirements.
- Select appropriate materials based on mechanical properties, environmental conditions, and manufacturing considerations.
- Develop detailed technical drawings and specifications for structural components, adhering to industry standards.
- Collaborate with clients and internal teams to define project requirements and understand application contexts.
- Conduct stress, strain, vibration, and buckling analyses to predict structural behavior under various loads.
- Validate simulation results through theoretical calculations and, where applicable, comparison with experimental data.




- Troubleshoot structural integrity issues and propose effective design modifications.
- Stay updated on advancements in structural analysis techniques, software tools, and material science.
- Prepare comprehensive technical reports detailing analysis methodologies, results, and recommendations for stakeholders.
- Maintain excellent communication and project management skills within a remote work setting.

Requirements

- Master's or Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering or a related field with a focus on structural mechanics.
- Minimum of 5 years of experience in structural design and/or analysis using FEA tools.
- Proficiency with FEA software packages such as ANSYS, Abaqus, NASTRAN, or similar.
- Strong understanding of solid mechanics, material science, and engineering principles.
- Experience in designing structures for various applications (e.g., industrial equipment, automotive, aerospace).
- Ability to interpret complex simulation results and communicate findings clearly.
- Excellent problem-solving skills and a rigorous approach to engineering analysis.
- Proven ability to work independently, manage time effectively, and collaborate in a remote team environment.
- Strong written and verbal communication skills.

Benefits

- Competitive salary and potential for performance-based bonuses.
- Comprehensive health, dental, and vision insurance plans.
- Generous vacation time and paid holidays.
- Opportunities for continuous learning and professional development.
- Flexible working hours and a fully remote work arrangement.
