Your Job:

As a Senior FEA Engineer at Molex, you will drive the design and optimization of cutting-edge datacom interconnect products. This role challenges you to deliver advanced finite element analysis (FEA) simulations that push the boundaries of product innovation and performance.

Our Team:

Join a team of dedicated engineers at Molex, where we collaborate globally to design and manufacture electronic solutions that solve complex technical challenges. Based in Mexico, you will be part of a vibrant engineering group that works alongside the world's leading innovators to further technology's limits.

What You Will Do:

• Conduct and coordinate nonlinear structural FEA for high-speed interconnect systems using Hypermesh, Abaqus, or ANSYS tools.
• Communicate FEA results with product design engineers through clear written and verbal presentations.
• Provide design recommendations to improve product structural performance based on FEA results.
• Participate in the correlation of CAE simulations to real-world tests to enhance modeling methods.
• Develop and refine FEA techniques and modeling methods independently and collaboratively.
• Lead the development of new products, aligning with engineering management priorities.

Who You Are (Basic Qualifications):

• Bachelor's degree in Mechanical or a related engineering discipline.
• 6+ years of experience with nonlinear implicit and explicit finite element analysis.
• 6+ years of experience with ABAQUS or ANSYS FEA Simulation Software.
• 2+ years of experience with parametric CAD systems (UG NX, CATIA, SolidWorks, etc.).
• Proficient in English with strong verbal and written communication skills.

What Will Put You Ahead:

• Master's or Ph.D. degree in Mechanical Engineering or a related discipline.
• 10+ years of experience with Altair (Hyperworks, Simlab) family products.
• 5+ years of experience in predicting nonlinear structural behavior on reinforced plastics and metals.
• Experience with explicit solver software, such as LS-DYNA or Abaqus Explicit.
• Familiarity with molding simulation software (e.g., Moldflow, Moldex-3D).
• Experience with Python scripting and CAE process automation tools (modeFrontier, Isight).
• Established records of innovation, such as patent ownership or technical paper authorship.
