At Solidigm, we are committed to innovation, performance, and reliability in data storage and memory technology.
We are seeking a highly skilled and motivated Process TD Engineer (Mechanical Simulation) to join our dynamic manufacturing engineering team. The ideal candidate will have a strong background in simulation-based design verification, structural analysis, and thermal-mechanical modeling, specifically in the context of advanced mechanical systems and cutting-edge technologies.
As a Process TD Engineer, you will play a key role in developing, validating, and improving Solidigm’s products and technologies by leveraging advanced simulation tools and methodologies to solve complex engineering problems. You will collaborate closely with cross-functional teams to ensure optimized performance, reliability, and manufacturability of our products.
Key Responsibilities
Structural and Thermal-Mechanical Analysis:
- Contribute to design for manufacturing and assembly studies
- Perform simulations using advanced tools to predict mechanical behavior (e.g., finite element analysis for structural integrity or heat dissipation).
- Analyze stress, strain, and failures in components and assemblies under environmental and operational conditions.
Design Validation:
- Develop simulation workflows to verify and validate design concepts.
- Identify potential design risks and propose mitigation strategies during disassembly.
- Simulate and solve engineering problems such as solder joint reliability, temperature cycling fatigue, product disassembly and PCB strains, etc.
Method Development and Optimization:
- Continuously improve simulation techniques and methodologies for enhanced accuracy and computational efficiency.
- Evaluate emerging tools or technologies to advance simulation capabilities.
- Develop experimental test models to build predictive confidence in simulation data.
- Work cross-functionally with design, manufacturing, and quality teams to ensure alignment of performance requirements and material specifications.
- Present findings and recommendations clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences.
Required education and skills:
- Master’s degree or PhD in mechanical engineering, applied mechanics, or a related field.
- Minimum of 3 years of experience in simulation engineering for mechanical systems in industry or in academia.
- Strong proficiency in finite element modeling tools (e.g., ANSYS, Abaqus, etc.).
- Knowledge of CAD tools (e.g., SolidWorks, Creo, or equivalent) for model creation and integration.
- Solid understanding of material properties, structural mechanics, and thermal dynamics principles.
- Strong problem-solving skills and analytical mindset.
- Ability to work in a collaborative environment.
- Clear and effective written and verbal communication skills.
- Proactive and self-motivated with attention to detail.
Preferred:
- Design and or manufacturing experience in electronic devices
- Familiarity with storage and memory products or a similar high-tech industry.
- Experience with product qualification testing and simulation correlation.
- Knowledge of best practices related to structural and thermal analysis.
All your information will be kept confidential according to EEO guidelines.
