Computer-aided simulation

Are you an engineer within CAE, simulations, or mechanical development – with strong C++ skills? Do you want to work close to real products, solving engineering problems using both simulations and code? Then this could be the right opportunity for you. The Role In this role, you will work at the intersection of engineering and software, developing and maintaining tools and applications used in product development within the automotive industry. This is not a pure software development role – instead, your work will focus on supporting engineering processes such as simulations, calculations, and product development. Your responsibilities will include: Developing and maintaining C++ applications used in CAE and simulation environments Working closely with engineers to support mechanical development and analysis Contributing to simulation workflows, calculations, and engineering tools Understanding and improving how software supports real-world product development About You To succeed in this role, you should have: ✅ Mechanical Engineering, Engineering Physics, or similar ✅ Experience working with CAE, simulations, or product development ✅ Strong skills in C++, used in an engineering context ✅ Experience working in Linux environments ✅ Understanding of engineering calculations, data, or physical systems Important We are specifically looking for candidates who have: ✔ Experience from CAE, simulations or mechanical development ✔ Used C++ as a tool in engineering work Bonus Skills While not required, experience in any of the following will be beneficial: ➕ Experience with simulation tools or frameworks ➕ Python or scripting for engineering workflows ➕ Database knowledge (SQL or similar) ➕ Experience from automotive product development In the process we will also evaluate your drive and ability to communicate in a clear and simple way. About Explipro Explipro values helpfulness and simplicity in the workplace. We are looking for individuals who share our commitment to integrity, transparency, and caring for each other. By joining us, you will be part of a supportive team that values continuous learning and personal growth. We offer competitive salaries, flexible working conditions, and numerous benefits to support your professional journey. If this opportunity aligns with your experience and aspirations, we encourage you to reach out to us without delay!

The opportunity With continuous and sustainable growth of our business we take the opportunity to strengthen our expertise and capacity with a new position with focus on structural analysis and numerical simulations Main focus will be on mechanical stress analysis, but also fluid mechanics simulations and dielectric simulations will be within the scope on a project basis. You will be part of Hitachi Energy’s competence center for fiber-reinforced polymer composites and silicone elastomers in Piteå. We are a team with world-class expertise and experience in realization, verification, and production of polymer composite products. The main products are structural and electrically insulating components used in high voltage transformers and switchgear which are vital for the transition to fossil free energy. Our customers are all over the world, both inside and outside Hitachi. How you’ll make an impact Stress analysis and sizing of composite structures subject to mechanical and thermal loads to support new product development and order design. Simulation of our manufacturing processes (e.g. wet filament winding, oven cure, silicone extrusion) to develop process expertise further and support process optimization and increased robustness. Lead projects and activities related to development of design tools and design criteria. Documentation of designs and review of test results to improve design criteria. Collaborate with cross-functional teams (e.g. design, quality, SCM, production) to solve complex engineering challenges and deliver robust solutions, both within our local/global organization and in cooperation with customers, suppliers, and academia. Apply robust analytical and critical thinking to solve complex challenges and to perform comprehensive risk reviews. Your background University engineering degree in composites engineering, applied mechanics, applied physics or similar. Expertise in Finite Element Analysis including experience with composite structures with layered anisotropic materials. Ability to cooperate and communicate both with experts at an academic level, as well as colleagues and project members with expertise in other areas Genuine interest and curiosity about technology. Ability and willingness to acquire new knowledge and skills. Team player who finds it easy to cooperate with others. Good communication skills in both spoken and written English and a basic understanding of Swedish are mandatory requirements. More about us Are you ready for a new exciting challenge?
