Modeling and Simulation Engineer (Multi Domain Physics)

Key Responsibilities

• Develop multi-domain physics-based plant models and multi-body dynamic simulations for aerospace systems, including actuators, thermal fluid systems, and dynamic mechanical systems.
• Validate models using experimental lab data, application testing, and hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) setups.
• Support controls integration with system-level simulations for closed-loop performance verification and stability analysis.
• Analyze actuator-structure interactions, load transmission, and transient responses using multi-domain coupling techniques.
• Refined and updated models based on experimental results to improve predictive accuracy and reliability.
• Collaborate with global teams and product teams to define modeling objectives, assumptions, and expected results while ensuring the technical quality of model deliverables.
• Mentor junior engineers, support global modeling efforts, and champion best practices for modeling and simulation workflows.

Required Skills

• Minimum of six (6) years of relevant professional experience, including hands-on work in modeling mechanical, thermal fluid, pneumatic, and actuator systems.
• Expertise in MATLAB, Simulink, and Simscape (including Simscape Fluids) for modeling mechanical, thermal fluid, pneumatic, and actuator systems.
• Proficiency in modeling and simulation tools for dynamic systems and thermal-fluid systems.
• Experience with hardware-in-the-loop testbeds, real-time model deployment, and system testing.
• Ability to implement systems engineering principles for simulation activities, including multidisciplinary system coupling and actuator integration.
• Strong technical data analysis, model refinement, and verification skills using experimental and flight test data.
• Excellent cross-functional communication and teamwork abilities, including mentoring, technical oversight, and delivering traceable verification artifacts.
• Familiarity with aerospace and defense standards (e.g., MIL-STD-810/DO-254).

Desired Skills

• Minimum of ten (10) years or more of relevant professional experience, including hands-on work in modeling mechanical, thermal fluid, pneumatic, and actuator systems.
• Knowledge of Simulation Process Data Management (SPDM) tools.
• Experience with advanced modeling software such as Siemens Amesim.
• Hands-on experience with multi-body dynamics and actuator-structure interaction assessments.
• Exposure to CAD/FEA workflows, thermal-stress analyses, and experimental testing.
