Primary Responsibilities :

  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to perform structural dynamics analysis (linear and non-linear) using finite element analysis software such as ANSYS or Abaqus.
  • Analyze power plant components (e.g., pressure vessels, piping systems, machinery, structures) using both classical and numerical methods.
  • Assess vibration data from mechanical and structural systems, diagnosing issues, and developing innovative solutions.
  • Design and execute vibration testing programs (under senior member supervision), including instrumentation setup, data acquisition, and analysis.
  • Contribute to the continuous improvement of in-house vibration testing tools and software.
  • Participate in business development by identifying project opportunities and providing technical insights.

Required Skills / Qualifications :

  • Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Structural Analysis, or a related field (e.g., Civil Engineering).

  • Proficiency in FEA for mechanical structures, acoustics, and dynamics analysis.
  • Strong analytical skills, with experience using tools like MATLAB or Python for data analysis.
  • Excellent communication skills, with the ability to present findings clearly and contribute to technical reports.
  • A team-player mindset, with the ability to manage individual tasks while collaborating with diverse project teams.
  • Desired Skills / Qualifications :

  • Hands-on troubleshooting experience with mechanical or structural vibration issues.
  • Familiarity with industrial sensors (accelerometers, strain gauges, proximity probes, etc.).
  • Experience with data processing tools like MATLAB, LabVIEW, or similar platforms.
  • Working knowledge of ASME Codes or PVP experience (Sections III, VIII, O&M Guidelines).
  • Knowledge of fracture mechanics and fatigue analysis, particularly in both linear-elastic and elastic-plastic regimes.
  • Experience managing engineering projects, including scheduling and budgeting.
  • Engineer-in-Training (EIT) or intent to pursue Professional Engineering (PE) certification.
  • Willingness to travel up to 20% based on project requirements.
  • Advanced degree in vibration / dynamics – compensation will align with experience.
