R&D Engineer Metal Processes Simulation (M/F)

RESPONSIBILITIES:

To support the growth of our metal processes simulation activities, we are looking for a new R&D Engineer in a permanent contract (CDI). A broad knowledge of various metal forming and assembly processes (forging, hot forming, welding, ...) is required. By joining IRT, you will have the opportunity to work within a simulation hub in direct and daily contact with the Metal Processes and Additive Manufacturing team and the Monitoring and Control team. Working closely with the workshop, you will compare your simulation results with experimentation. You are committed to developing pragmatic approaches that ensure industrial players can adopt the developments. Under the responsibility of the team leader, you will participate in the development of the Modeling and Simulation team's activities:

• You identify scientific bottlenecks of interest to IRT and its partners and contribute to overcoming them
• You develop process simulation models and production tool modeling in connection with needs and expectations

Your significant activities will be:

• Initiate and participate in collaborative research programs and projects
• Ensure the quality of scientific work within your field
• Ensure the capitalization of project results

REQUIRED PROFILE:

You hold a PhD and/or an engineering degree and have at least 5 years of experience in the field of metal processes simulation, including at least 2 years in industry. The position requires operational skills, both in the use of commercial simulation software and in the development of codes or code prototypes. To achieve this, you will rely on your experience acquired in an industrial environment and your good knowledge of processes. You possess expertise in modeling complex physical problems for industrial applications and a good knowledge of advanced numerical methods. Your technical curiosity, combined with your scientific rigor, as well as your organizational skills and autonomy, will allow you to meet the challenges of this position. Theoretical knowledge required for this position:

• Metal processes: forming and welding required
• Thermomechanics and metallurgy
• Constitutive laws of metals
• Finite element modeling
• Programming (Python, Git)
• English: fluent

Expected technical skills:

• Mastery of finite element software: Abaqus required and Comsol desired
• Scientific code development
• Ability to implement a scientific approach
• Mastery of oral and written communication
