SUMMARY
The R&D Engineer II contributes to the development of software products and supporting systems. In this role, the R&D Engineer II will collaborate with a team of expert professionals to understand customer requirements and accomplish development objectives.
The immediate work will focus on enhancements of structural dynamics simulation features involving contact and large assemblies, global procedure, and parallel processing environments. The goal is to improve the computing speed, accuracy, and robustness of mechanical FEA software. Experience in mechanical, civil, engineering mechanics or aerospace engineering with strong scientific programming and computational mechanics background is required.
Ansys is the world leader in engineering simulation. Up to 80% of the cost of a product’s development is determined by the decisions you make early in the design process, and Ansys helps its customers reduce this cost with physical simulation tools to make better decisions quicker. Customers use Ansys simulation products to digitally explore design concepts and test critical design choices early in the product life cycle.
