Title:

Structural Simulation Engineer Duration: 12 Months with possibility of extension

Location:

Corning, NY

Note:

Possible conversion, but no guarantee or timeframe commitment Non-local candidates who are willing to relocate at their own expense are welcome Travel Requirements:
Flexibility is required. We travel up to 10% (Mostly to U.S. manufacturing sites) Only W2 candidates are eligible for this position. Third-party or C2C candidates will not be considered.

Description:

Top requirements:
Minimum of M.S in Mechanical Engineering, Civil or related discipline with 4 years of work experience in a similar field OR a Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering, Civil or related discipline with 0 years of work experience. Chemical/Electrical engineering degrees are not suitable for this role. Mechanical is preferred. Solid understanding of loading conditions and strains on structures Strong foundation in solid mechanics (most critical).

Hands on experience with finite element analysis (FEA) including modeling, boundary value problems, PDEs/ODEs.

Experience with commercial FEA tools such as: ANSYS Abaqus LS-Dyna Experience using (or exposure to) open source FEA codes, examples include: MOOSE CodeAster Calculi

X MATLAB-based custom solvers Familiarity with physical testing methods (stress/strain characterization), even though the role is modeling focused. Purpose of the Position:
As a Scientist/Engineer, you are responsible for modeling of new processes and/or process conditions for improved product attributes or reduced cost for glass and/or ceramic substrates and filters. You will be expected to develop modeling/analytical tools or utilizing existing tools to gain fundamental understanding of underlying principles. You need a strong foundation in solid mechanics and a high level of expertise in numerical modeling.

Our team requires excellent communication and interpersonal skills for working with globally distributed researchers, engineers in our commercial organizations and customers. The Process Simulation Engineer supports Cornings modeling group by conducting advanced solid mechanics modeling and simulation to improve product reliability and process understanding. The engineer will translate real-world loads, tests, and forming processes into mathematical and computational models using finite element analysis (FEA) tools.

Outputs of the analyses will help predict stresses, strains, deformation, process feasibility, and product reliability across various applications (consumer electronics, automotive glazing, etc.). The role collaborates closely with testing and characterization teams but remains primarily modeling focused. Day to Day Responsibilities:
In this role, you will be responsible for modeling of new processes and/or process conditions for improved product attributes or reduced cost for glass and/or ceramic substrates and filters with an expectation of developing modeling/ analytical tools or utilizing existing tools to gain fundamental understanding of underlying principles. You should have a strong foundation in solid mechanics and a high level of expertise in numerical modeling.

This position requires you to have excellent communication and interpersonal skills for working with globally distributed researchers, engineers in our commercial organizations, and customers.
