About the role

AI summarised

R&D Engineer focused on mechatronic systems, simulation, and AI at HP. The role involves designing mechanical and thermal hardware, developing FEA and CFD models, and applying AI-driven techniques to accelerate simulation workflows. Requires a degree in Mechanical Engineering or Mechatronics, proficiency in CAD and FEA tools, and interest in AI/ML applications.

ElectronicsFull-timeEngineering

Key Responsibilities

  • Design portions of engineering solutions for mechatronic systems, mechanical and thermal hardware, electronics enclosures, and production tooling, in accordance with established engineering principles and development guidelines.
  • Support system-level and control-related design considerations, including servo motion, actuation, power, and integrated mechanical behaviours.
  • Conduct feasibility studies, design margin assessments, and analytical evaluations on new and modified designs.
  • Perform root cause analysis of design or system issues and propose, evaluate, and implement corrective solutions.
  • Develop and apply simulation models, including Finite Element Analysis (FEA) for structural, thermal, vibration, and durability assessments.
  • Support design decision-making through simulation-driven insights and correlation with empirical data.
  • Explore and apply AI-driven techniques to accelerate simulation workflows, improve prediction accuracy, and enable design optimization (e.g., predictive modelling, automated meshing, generative approaches).
  • Work in a collaborative R&D environment to design, analyze, simulate, and refine components, devices, structures, and assemblies.
  • Participate as a member of cross-functional project teams, including internal engineers and outsourced development partners, to deliver reliable, cost-effective, and high-quality solutions for low to moderately complex products.
  • Build and manage relationships with suppliers and outsourced partners, setting expectations for deliverables, quality, schedules, and cost.
  • Manage engineering change processes, including design change notifications, engineering change approvals, and associated schedules.
  • Drive value engineering initiatives, including proposal development, technical evaluation, and communication.

Requirements

  • Bachelor's or Graduate Degree in Mechanical Engineering, Mechatronics, or a related discipline (or equivalent practical experience and demonstrated competence).
  • Familiarity with 3D CAD tools, such as Creo Parametric / ProEngineer.
  • Experience or understanding of FEA tools (e.g., Altair HyperWorks, ANSYS) is highly preferred.
  • Understanding of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD).
  • Strong fundamentals in mechanics of materials, kinematics, and materials engineering.
  • Practical knowledge of material testing methods, such as fatigue and creep testing.
  • Interest or exposure to AI / ML concepts and their application in engineering (e.g., predictive modelling, optimization).
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with understanding of mechanical and thermal material properties.
  • Hands-on engineering capability and willingness to engage directly with hardware, prototypes, testing and failure investigation.
  • Programming skills in Python, C++ or MATLAB for simulation automation and data analysis.
