À propos
Assist in the design and modeling of composite components using CAD software (e.g., SolidWorks, CATIA, or AutoCAD) to meet mechanical performance requirements.
Conduct basic analysis of composite structures, including stress, strain, and failure modes, using finite element analysis (FEA) tools like ANSYS or Abaqus.
Collaborate with cross–functional teams to select appropriate composite materials (e.g., carbon fiber, fiberglass, or epoxy resins) based on project specifications, cost, and manufacturability.
Support prototyping and testing processes, including preparing samples, performing mechanical tests (e.g., tensile, compression, and fatigue testing), and analyzing results to iterate designs.
Prepare technical documentation, such as design reports, drawings, and specifications, ensuring compliance with industry standards (e.g., ASTM, ISO).
Participate in design reviews, brainstorming sessions, and problem–solving activities to optimize composite designs for weight reduction, durability, and performance.
Assist in researching new composite technologies and materials to improve product efficiency and sustainability.
Ensure adherence to safety protocols, quality control measures, and environmental regulations in all design and manufacturing activities.
Provide support for manufacturing processes, such as layup, curing, and assembly of composite parts.
Required Qualifications and Education
Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Materials Science, Aerospace Engineering, or a related field. A Master's degree is a plus but not required.
Basic understanding of composite materials, including properties, fabrication methods (e.g., hand layup, autoclave curing, resin infusion), and applications.
Experience
0–2 years of relevant experience in mechanical design or composites engineering (internships, co–op programs, or academic projects count toward this).
Familiarity with CAD software and FEA tools through coursework or personal projects.
Exposure to composite manufacturing or testing is desirable but not essential.
Essential Skills
Proficiency in CAD software for 3D modeling and drafting.
Basic knowledge of FEA and simulation tools for structural analysis.
Understanding of mechanical principles, including statics, dynamics, and thermodynamics.
Strong analytical and problem–solving skills with attention to detail.
Ability to work with mathematical models and perform calculations related to material strength and performance.
Proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite (e.g., Excel for data analysis, Word for reporting).
Excellent communication skills, both written and verbal, for collaborating with teams and presenting findings.
Desirable Skills
Experience with programming languages like Python or MATLAB for automating design tasks or data analysis.
Knowledge of sustainable materials or lightweight design principles.
