The Research Engineer will work with Government customers, other ARCTOS personnel, and other Government organizations and contractors in the performance of the following duties:
Design for Additive Manufacturing (DfAM):
Research and develop methodologies for tailoring design and optimization frameworks (e.g., topology optimization, generative design) to account for AM process-induced constraints, defects, and material anisotropy.
Integrate manufacturability metrics directly into the design loop to ensure optimized components are successfully produced using AM.
Thermomechanical Modeling & Simulation:
Develop, implement, and validate advanced finite element analysis (FEA) and other numerical models, including machine learning frameworks, to predict the thermomechanical performance of materials and components under extreme operating conditions relevant to Air Force applications.
Focus on modeling the performance of systems where thermal loads and mechanical stresses are intrinsically coupled.
Research Leadership and Execution:
Lead and contribute to applied and fundamental research projects, resulting in high-impact publications, technical reports, and transition of technologies to Air Force programs.
Work effectively on multidisciplinary teams to tackle complex, interconnected engineering problems.
Software and Tool Development:
Utilize and maintain proficiency in commercial engineeringmechanics and design software (e.g., Abaqus, ANSYS, COMSOL, nTop).
Develop, customize, and apply custom engineeringmechanics and design software/scripts (e.g., in Python, MATLAB, C++) to extend capabilities and integrate specialized models.
KNOWLEDGE AND SKILLS
The well-qualified candidate will have expertise in many of these areas:
Common commercial simulation software and programming languages for custom tool development.
Hands-on experience in tailoring and optimizing engineeringdesign frameworks (e.g., optimization algorithms, surrogate modeling, machine learning).
Proven experience in thermomechanical modeling for design, performance prediction, and manufacturing process modeling.
Demonstrated experience with FEA and multi-physics applications.
Experience with applying classic and modern machine learning algorithms to optimization and engineering problems, e.g. active learning (Bayesian optimization, reinforcement learning), deep learning (neural networks)
Specific experience with additive manufacturing processes (e.g., Powder Bed Fusion, Directed Energy Deposition) and understanding of how process parameters influence material properties and component performance.
Excellent organizational and time management abilities
Desire to work both independently and in a team environment as the project requires
Excellent verbal and written communication skills
Proven track record in conducting both applied and fundamental research, evidenced by publications, patents, or successful technology demonstrations.
EDUCATIONAL, CLEARANCE AND CERTIFICATION
M.S. or Ph.D. in MechanicalEngineering, Aerospace Engineering, Materials Science, or a closely related field.
U.S. Citizenship is required
PHYSICAL/WORKING ENVIRONMENT
Primary work environment is a standard office setting.
