Modeling Engineer (Finite Element Analysis)

Proven to Perform. From the edges of space to the bottoms of ocean, our materials are proven to perform -- and so is our team. We're hiring high performers as proven as our products. Join us.

We are currently looking to hire a Modeling Engineer - FEA to support ATI's Technical Research and Development Teams. As a Modeling Engineer you will contribute to and expand ATI Specialty Materials capabilities in computational materials science by developing and utilizing process models to address issues relating to the manufacture of specialty alloys and make predictions of relevant properties at various stages through the manufacturing process. This is an onsite position based at our Monroe, NC facility.

A successful Modeling Engineer is also a thought-leader, and problem solver who enthusiastically tackle challenges and achieves results while dealing with ambiguity and change that accompanies working in a research environment. To add to your knowledge, you will also need to periodically visit relevant manufacturing facilities in order to gain insight into the issues to be addressed.

Responsibilities

• Utilize process simulation to support manufacturing process improvements that result in better product quality and lower manufacturing costs.

• Conduct testing and characterization in order to generate data necessary for model development, validation.

• Communicate results to management, colleagues, and customers in the form of written reports and oral presentations.

• Propose, defend and execute project concepts for new products, cost savings, quality improvement, and process innovation. Collaborate with technology and research colleagues across ATI.

• Maintain industry expertise and current knowledge of developments in process modeling by experimentation, attending meetings and conferences conducted by trade associations, by reviewing trade and technical literature and by periodic visit to customer, supplier, and other ATI manufacturing locations.
