Intermediate Level Mechanical Engineer (2 positions)
JOB DESCRIPTION: Intermediate Level Mechanical Engineer (2 positions)
Thumbprint Solutions Inc. is a small mechanical engineering firm based in Stouffville Ontario (20 min north of Toronto) specializing in advanced mechanical simulation and design. Our diverse customer base includes automotive, electric vehicle, industrial, consumer product and medical companies where we provide a range of design and analysis services. Some of our recent projects include the full development of electric vehicles, power train and high-voltage battery simulation, industrial pressure vessel simulation and composites structures design. Everyday holds a new challenge and our employees thrive on the variety of work and their interactions in our team.
We are currently looking for two intermediate to senior mechanical/mechatronics engineers to complement our staff. The successful candidate will be a self-starter that can work productively with minimal supervision and guidance. Adaptability, problem solving, and ability to learn are the most important attributes our work environment demands. Due to the nature of our work, it is very important that candidates demonstrate both an exceptional theoretical and practical understanding of solid mechanics, machine design and computer aided engineering. The candidate will have hands-on ability in these areas. The candidate can be assured of a rich development environment where they can push themselves as far as they can.
The work may include all or some of the following activities:
- Creating finite element models for structural simulation using Altair HyperWorks and/or LS-Dyna (implicit, explicit, highly non-linear simulation)
- Performing finite element or multi-body dynamics simulation using RADIOSS or MotionSolve
- Designing and detailing components and assemblies in SolidWorks
- Maintaining project documentation in job books and data archival
- Field work and testing from time to time
Qualifications:
- 5+ years or equivalent of demonstrated performance strong mechanical aptitude including structural mechanics, mechanisms and machines is a must
- knowledge and experience in linear and nonlinear structural simulation including mesh generation, model set-up and results interpretation, specific experience with Altair HyperWorks, Radioss or LS-Dyna is highly desirable
- CAD design experience (SolidWorks is preferred)
- automotive engineering experience is an asset
- we will consider exceptional people with lesser experience that can provide a good indication of capability including transcripts and references
