Overall job definition :
The Process Modeling Engineer - CFD will model Unit process involved in Li-Ion production using model-based numerical simulations. He/she will develop numerical models based on the current knowledge on the physics involved, using commercial or in-house simulation tools; this may include a wide variety of physical phenomena such fluid dynamics, thermal dynamics, mechanical behavior, or chemistry. He / she will identify the most relevant physical phenomena to model, and define a numerical strategy adapted to the internal customer’s need.
He/she will support the design and scaling-up of new processes; will answer Industrial teams’ needs; will contribute to the design of the experimental procedures required to calibrate his/her models.
He/she will be required to present the main results of his/her studies internally and to customers. He/she shall be up to date state of the art process simulation activities and manage external contracts and collaborations. He/she will manage his/her simulation environment.
Cross functional role :
Support to all departments where process modeling is involved (Modelling, Innovation Process, Industrialization).
Main missions, Objectives and KPIs related :
Support pilot line and gigafactories process setup and optimization by modeling processes
Manage internal and external projects, contracts, while collaborating with internal teams (R&D, Industrialization, Projects, Simulation, …).
Adapt and Run 0D/1D/2D/3D models, based on a pre-identified set of physics-based equations, using pre-existing numerical tools or developing adapted in-house numerical models.
Manage collaborations with suppliers, customers and strategic partners.
Contribute to the company roadmap.
Be up to date to the state of the art on its topic of expertise.
Support Intellectual Property monitoring and propose innovative patentable concepts.
