Senior Engineer M&S Finite Element Analysis
About The Position
Faith Technologies Inc. (FTI) is currently seeking a Senior Engineer M&S Finite Element Analysis to join our Product Engineering team in Menasha, WI. We are seeking a highly skilled Senior Engineer M&S Finite Element Analysis to support our research and technology (R&D) development programs and product development projects. The successful candidate will be responsible for conducting structural and thermal impact analysis of enclosures and components under various stresses, loading conditions, and heat rejection of electronic components. Key responsibilities include supporting the design of power distribution enclosures, data center enclosures, switchboards, and battery packs, ensuring robust solutions that optimize material and cost. You will use modeling and simulation to optimize battery pack design and reduce the potential for flaws to guide the build of physical prototypes. The ideal candidate will have strong analytical skills and experience in finite element analysis (FEA) to support initial concepts, prototype design, and manufacturing. About the Product Engineering Team 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 world—safely, reliably, and at scale.
