Modeling And Simulation Engineering ManagerFaith Technologies Inc. (FTI) is currently seeking a Modeling And Simulation Engineering Manager to join our Product Engineering team in Menasha, WI.
As a Modeling & Simulation Engineering Manager in the R&D group, you will be responsible for the development of advanced modeling and simulation environments for electrical, thermal, and mechanical systems and enclosures used in distributed energy resources and power distribution. Leading a team of M&S engineers and collaborating with subject matter experts, product strategy teams, and systems engineers, your team will create accurate and efficient simulations that meet requirements and support product development. Furthermore, you will develop and oversee the implementation of modeling and simulation processes as critical milestones for development and validation of technologies and products within the Product Engineering organization. Through your expertise, you will play a key role in driving innovation and performance improvements in distributed energy and power distribution systems.
Our Product Engineering Team sits at the intersection of innovation and execution, transforming ideas into real-world products and solutions for Excellerate Products(tm), a division of Faith Technologies Incorporated (FTI). From early concept through full-scale production, our engineers design Data Center power distribution products, Electric Vehicle charging skids, switchboards and more! With a strong focus on quality, manufacturability, and customer outcomes, we ensure every product is engineered to perform in the real worldsafely, reliably, and at scale.
Minimum requirements include:
Master's degree in electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, or equivalent
10+ years of experience in systems simulation
Experience with multi-physics modeling software such as Simulink, Simscape, Simcenter Amesim, GT Suite, or similar
Experience using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software to develop models and conduct analysis
Experience in finite element analysis with use of Ansys, Abaqus, COMSOL or similar software
Familiarity with development and use of hardware-in-the-loop (HIL), model-in-loop (MIL), and software-in-the-loop (SIL) simulation platforms
Strong understanding of renewable energy systems including solar, wind, power, or power distribution concepts including uninterrupted power supply, power converters, switchboards, and other power electronics
Demonstrated implementation of real-world power generation and distribution problems into complex modeling and simulation platforms
Demonstrated development and implementation of modular component models with scalable flexibility for various levels of simulation fidelity
Familiarity with power distribution enclosures including UPS, switchboards, batteries, and power electronics
Demonstrated leadership of cross-functional modeling and simulation engineering teams
Preferred requirements include:
PhD in electrical or mechanical engineering with demonstrated simulation experience, or demonstrated engineering research background
Experience with machine learning models generated from data
Experience with development of SIL, MIL, and HIL platforms for verification and validation of controls software
