    AWE has great opportunities for CAE Material Model Engineers

    These are exciting opportunities for passionate CAE (Computer Aided Engineering) Material Model Engineers to lead the development of advanced, non-linear material models and to integrate them into the finite element analysis codes used by the team. As well as developing material models, these roles will involve liaising with material characterisation teams to obtain mechanical test data and using numerical optimisation techniques to calibrate models to test. You will also be expected to lead the design and development of a database of material models using Granta MI and to deploy it for use by modelling teams.

    The Engineering Analysis Team support AWE's mission by providing a range of computational mechanics to the business, such as finite element analysis (FEA), computational fluid dynamics (CFD), thermal and blast analysis. The team work on challenging, weapons-related projects which underpin continuous-at-sea-deterrence and contribute to the security of the nation.

    Location: Aldermaston, West Berkshire. We are located between Reading and Basingstoke, with onsite parking.

    Salary: £36,000 - £65,000 (depending on your suitability and level of experience)
