Simulation Engineer

At Quest Global, we are actively hiring for Software Simulation Engineer(s) to join one of our Warehouse customer at Redditch, UK

Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science / Industrial Engineering

Experience:

Minimum 3–7 years of relevant experience in supply chain simulation, industrial engineering, or discrete event simulation.

Simulation Software/ Tools :
Proficiency in specialized software such as Flex Sim, Any Logic, ANSYS (FEA/CFD), MATLAB/Simulink (dynamic systems), COMSOL, or Any Logic.

Programming:
Strong scripting skills (Python, R) for data analysis and automating simulation tasks.

Programming

Languages:

Proficiency in Python (scientific computing), C++ (high-performance tasks), and MATLAB/R for data analysis and mathematical modeling.

Domain Knowledge:
Solid understanding of warehousing automation technologies (AGVs, sorters, AS/RS).

WMS Knowledge:
Familiarity with WMS systems.

Simulation Tools:
Experience with industry-specific software such as ANSYS (FEA/CFD), MATLAB/Simulink (dynamic systems), COMSOL, or Any Logic.

Experience with CAD tools (e.g., AutoCAD) for layout creation.

The Simulation Engineer will develop, validate, and analyze discrete-event simulation models of warehouse facilities, incorporating automation, conveyors, and WMS software. The goal is to identify bottlenecks, improve efficiency, and validate operational scenarios before implementation.

Modeling & Simulation:
Design and build 3D simulation models of distribution centers and warehouse logistics using software like Flex Sim, Simio, or Any Logic.

Data Analysis & Validation:
Analyze operational data (e.g., order profiles, inventory levels, stock audit) to validate simulation models, ensuring they accurately represent real-world operations.

Process Optimization:
Conduct experiments to identify bottlenecks, test "what-if" scenarios, and optimize resource requirements (staffing, automated equipment).

WMS Integration:
Simulate interactions between physical equipment (AGVs, ASRS, conveyors) and warehouse software systems (e.g., SAP EWM, Manhattan Associates).

Documentation & Reporting:
Create detailed technical reports and visualizations (Tableau, R) to present findings to stakeholders and support data-driven decision-making.

Cross-Functional Collaboration:

Collaborate with engineering and operations teams to integrate simulation results into final warehouse designs.
