We are looking for a Mechanical Analysis / CAE Engineer with practical experience in Finite Element Analysis (FEA), structural analysis, and mechanical engineering calculations.

The candidate will perform engineering analysis of hydraulic components, control valves, valve bodies, actuators, filters, and pressure-containing equipment. Solid fundamentals in strength of materials, machine design, and structural mechanics are essential.

Hands-on experience in ANSYS Mechanical or ANSYS Workbench is required. CFD, fatigue analysis, and reliability engineering experience will be an added advantage.

Key Responsibilities

- Perform FEA and structural analysis of mechanical components and assemblies.
- Evaluate stress, strain, deformation, and factor of safety.
- Analyse valves, valve bodies, actuators, filters, and pressure-containing components.
- Perform mechanical strength, pressure, and structural integrity calculations.
- Support CFD analysis of valves and hydraulic components.
- Evaluate fluid flow, pressure drop, velocity distribution, and flow characteristics.
- Interpret simulation results and recommend design improvements.
- Prepare technical analysis reports with assumptions, boundary conditions, methodology, and conclusions.
- Support fatigue assessment, failure analysis, and reliability studies.
- Coordinate with design, manufacturing, and testing teams for design verification and validation.

Required Skills

- Finite Element Analysis (FEA).
- ANSYS Mechanical / ANSYS Workbench or equivalent FEA software.




- Structural and stress analysis.
- Strength of Materials and Machine Design.
- Engineering calculations and factor-of-safety assessment.
- Meshing, loading conditions, constraints, and boundary conditions.
- Material properties and mechanical component analysis.
- Technical report preparation and interpretation of simulation results.

Preferred Skills

- Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD).
- ANSYS Fluent / ANSYS CFX.
- Fluid mechanics and hydraulic systems.
- Control valves, actuators, filters, and pressure equipment.
- Fatigue analysis, reliability engineering, and failure analysis.
- Creo, AutoCAD, and 3D CAD model interpretation.
- Simulation validation and design verification.

Preferred Industry Experience

Hydraulics, fluid-power systems, industrial valves, defence, aerospace, pressure equipment, precision engineering, mechanical product development, and CAE simulation.

Candidate Requirements

Candidates must have hands-on experience in actual engineering analysis projects, with the ability to interpret results and prepare technical reports. Candidates with only ANSYS training or software certifications and no practical project exposure will not be prioritised.

Candidates with strong FEA fundamentals and knowledge of fluid mechanics may also be considered if they can develop expertise in valve-flow analysis.

Hyderabad-based candidates comfortable commuting to IDA Patancheru are preferred. Candidates willing to relocate may also apply.
