We are now seeking an intellectually curious and skilled System simulation engineer/expert to join our Systems Reliability team (of seven people) to support Wärtsilä transformation, towards a more sustainable future, by applying modern modeling and simulation methodologies to solve complex and challenging design and processing problems. The preferred location for the position is in Vaasa (Finland) but also Trieste (Italy) and Turku (Finland) are possible locations. What will you be doing In this position, you will be asked to participate in Research and Development projects by defining, managing, and executing modeling and calculation activities. You will be responsible for efficiently building accurate models with a different range of complexity, from system level with imposed component characteristics to more detailed component analysis. You will focus on standalone or coupled simulations for various engine components/ systems facing new design challenges, thus supporting specialists' decision-making processes. Your work will focus mainly on hydraulics simulations. Typical predictions of interest may include but are not limited to dimensioning components and systems, analyzing alternative fuels, and optimizing injection and combustion by integrating hydraulics with other engine models. As well as the study of applications where hydraulic models must be integrated with other sub-systems and modeling domains (e.g., mechanical, electrical, and controller subsystems) to capture interactions and optimize overall system behaviour. As a Systems simulation engineer/expert, your work will focus on these responsibilities: Supporting the design of innovative products by means of dedicated modeling and calculation competencies. Support troubleshooting in case of failure or malfunction. Establish and develop analysis methods for determining and securing system and component reliability and functionality.
