Transmission CAE Engineer – with possibilities to work abroad

The complexity of the vehicle development process has increased significantly the last decade. A modern vehicle system has to respect traffic and environmental restrictions by fluently integrating all its different vehicle modules. The integration and selection of this wide assortment of propulsion possibilities requires the implementation of a virtual approach, to evaluate drivetrain performance in early development stages. In this role we are looking for a FEA engineer within the transmissions segment.

We are looking for someone who is positive, outgoing and driven, able to create and maintain long-lasting relationships with our customers, thrilled by problem solving, and able to use creativity and hard work to find new solutions. And of course, we want someone who is genuinely interested in technology!

As a consultant at ALTEN, you will get the genuine team feeling at your assignment but also a wonderful togetherness at ALTEN. Through our different internal networks, such as ALTEN Sports, Women@ALTEN and ALTEN Innovation you will get the opportunity to drive topics and activities that are close to your heart, together with your colleagues. All activities are of course optional. Work life balance is our top priority. We also have a collective agreement and other benefits like Pension, Insurances and Wellness grants.

This opening is describing your first assignment with us which will be in an international environment with focus on transmission analyses. Your client will be situated in Belgium but you will at least initially be based in Gothenburg but with possibilities to work abroad when Covid restrictions so permit.

Strength, Fatigue and NVH are the key areas but all other CAE areas connected to transmissions are meriting, such as gear design, lubrication, bearings etc. Abaqus will be the main tool used for the analyses. Personal qualities that we value are the ability to act professionally as a consultant and to understand the client’s goals and values. 

Necessary experience;

-Minimum 6 years of work experience of which 3 years in the automotive sector

-Extensive experienced from working with FE transmission analyses

-Skills in Abaqus (FE Solver) and Matlab
