Simulation Engineer

TFT Global (USA) Inc.•Powdersville, SC

8h•$115,000 - $115,000

About The Position

We are seeking a motivated, technically capable Simulation Engineer to help build and lead capabilities in digital twin technology, material-flow simulation, and logistics optimization. This new, high-impact role sits at the intersection of engineering, automation, logistics, commercial strategy, and operational execution. The Simulation Engineer will use simulation and automation software to model real-world operating environments, evaluate alternatives, identify constraints, and determine effective ways to move material through warehouses, manufacturing facilities, and interconnected logistics systems. The work will inform solution design, customer quotations, new-business planning, existing-operation improvements, and strategic initiatives. The role involves working directly with key stakeholders and decision-makers, translating complex engineering problems into practical, data-driven recommendations. As the capability is still being developed, the successful candidate will help establish methods, standards, and tools in an evolving technology space. The ideal candidate is a self-starter who is comfortable with ambiguity, enjoys solving problems, and can balance technical detail with broader business objectives. They will visit facilities, understand processes, gather information, build models, test alternatives, and explain the results. The role requires independent work and collaboration with commercial, engineering, operations, and leadership teams. A hybrid or remote work arrangement may be considered depending on experience, location, and business needs. Periodic travel to facilities and customer sites across the United States and Canada is required. Candidates must currently be legally able to work in the US or Canada without sponsorship.
