Who Are We?? ?

At Ditch Witch in Perry, Oklahoma we pride ourselves on being the leading manufacturer in the underground pipe and cable market. Our plant in Perry stands out because it's a place for people to learn and thrive. We enjoy coming to work because our plant is our community, we see our teammates not only as co-workers but as neighbors and family members. All of our locations build the intricate network of machinery that contributes to The Toro Company. We contribute to building communities, cities, and the world. We invite you to apply and join a team of highly skilled, and highly passionate people.

The Simulation Engineer will perform computational simulations and provide design guidance for mechanical and electronic products to meet EMC regulatory requirements for both new and existing products. Work with new production development teams to recommend changes in methods, design, or equipment.

What Will You Do??

In order to grow and build a successful career with The Toro Company, you will be responsible for:?

• Partner with product development teams to identify opportunities to apply simulation methods early in the development cycle. Develop simulation plans to improve or optimize the design based on performance or durability specifications. Participate in the development of simulation plans and execute each plan. Use engineering fundamentals in lieu of simulations whenever possible. Mentor lower-level simulation engineers or design engineers in understanding underlying physics and how to use and interpret simulation results.

• Use commercial software to execute simulations (including pre-processing, solving, and post-processing) to predict the behavior of the proposed designs using the primary analysis tools (ANSYS Electronics Suite, Linux). Other simulation tools or closed form solutions may also be used. Write custom routines as needed to streamline the analysis process.

• Compile simulation results. Participate in peer reviews and communicate results through generation of high-quality reports containing both scientific visualization, numerical data, and conclusions.

• Work with design teams, test engineers, and technicians to develop an understanding of the workings of any given product or system to develop or refine simulation or input conditions.

• Partner with test engineers and technicians to develop tests, which can be used to provide inputs to simulation activities, confirm simulation results, and emulate the requirements of the customer. Evaluate test data and assist in the development of design revisions to solve problems.

• Partner with product development teams to quickly respond to unexpected design issues identified during the development cycle or in-production product failures and use simulation and expertise to resolve those issues.

• Continue to develop and learn about new simulation techniques, technological developments, components, concepts, materials, manufacturing processes, or competitive environment which would affect the design or design process. Document any relevant activities.

• Participate in project team meetings, design reviews, test plan preparation, etc. on an as needed basis.

• Participate in corporate and departmental activities such as continuous improvement events and customer relation activities.

• Participate in planning activities for resources such as software or hardware.

• Coordinate work with consultants and offshore resources, as needed, to address resource shortages.

What Do You Need??

To be considered for this role, an individual should meet the following minimal requirements:?

• Bachelors degree in an ABET accredited Electrical Engineering, Electrical Engineering Technology or closely related program.

• Masters degree in Electrical Engineering or closely related program from a university with an ABET accredited undergraduate engineering program is desirable.

• Experience in EMC testing, analysis, and/or simulation. Job grade will be determined by experience. Level I: 0-2 years; Level II: 2-4 years; Level III: 4-6 years; Level IV: 6-8 years; Level V: 8+ years.

• Demonstrated understanding of EMC design theory including detailed knowledge of shielding, filtering, grounding, bonding, cabling, waveguides, and printed circuit board design.

• Good understanding of and experience using RF test equipment such as network analyzers, EMI receiver, etc.

• Military RF experience would be a plus.

• Ability to investigate and define strategies to ensure cost-effective, efficient, low-risk project execution.

• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills required to interact with all levels of personnel internally and externally. Works with other members of the engineering team to ensure project milestones are met and that projects are completed according to established timelines. Strong presentation skills.

• Proven ability to plan and execute simulation activities through the complete product development cycle. Acts as simulation technical lead, influencing the direction of design projects.

• Demonstrated competency in productivity, decision making and problem resolution through successful completion of simulation tasks supporting multiple product development teams.

• Ability to provide guidance and mentorship to less experienced engineers.

• Experience with CAD software (Solid Edge, Creo) and design tools (Matlab)

• Knowledge of mobile equipment or automotive EMC standards and regulations.

NICE TO HAVE ISO13766

Other Job-Related Components:

• Most work done in an office environment. May occasionally work in test lab or at field test site.

• Minimal travel required (0 to 10%).
