Simulation Specialist Engineer - Remote

Quest Global is an organization at the forefront of innovation and one of the world’s fastest growing engineering services firms with deep domain knowledge and recognized expertise in the top OEMs across seven industries. They are seeking a Simulation Specialist Engineer to lead the generation and optimization of advanced Discrete Event Simulation models, drive system performance, and manage projects in a fast-paced manufacturing environment.

Responsibilities:

• Lead the DES model generation from concept modelling to fully detailed mimic of the program / system that meet the design scope, operating principals, performance metrics, safety, quality, delivery, cost, people and environment objectives
• Lead the system optimization, cost avoidance, best practises capturing and sharing this with relevant Stakeholders
• Able to work effectively with design teams to develop and optimize solutions considering multi-attributes within defined deadlines and time constraints
• Guide the process using a product knowledge and awareness of potential design constraints to ensure due consideration is given in developing solutions
• Co-ordinate and lead projects and teams feedback of results as required through design / project reviews / DES Dashboards
• Lead optimization of the DES model against different model derivative mixes and operational parameters
• Lead the bottleneck analysis of the system and develop strategies to remove and lead volume throughput increase studies and system what ifs
• Guide the process to adhere to the vehicle derivative sequencing and build to sequence rules
• Support the continual development of tools and techniques which enhance capability, improve quality and robustness of DES models
