Description
Thumbprint Solutions Inc. is a boutique engineering design firm specializing in mechanical design, simulation and product realization. Based just north of Toronto, Canada, we proudly provide our clients and partners turnkey mechanical and mechatronics engineering solutions to help them solve their most challenging technical challenges. With a combination of cutting-edge simulation, innovative design and good old-fashioned teamwork, we help to conceive, develop, optimize, validate and bring to practice novel technologies in the product and machine design space. Valued for our problem solving ability and can-do attitude, we have become a go-to partner for a diverse and growing customer base, including world class manufacturing, aerospace, industrial, research, and life-sciences clients.

Now we’re growing again, and are actively looking for new team members for both our core engineering team, as well as our new TSI-Labs venture. We value people who know their stuff, work hard and contribute positively with our team, and ultimately, can join us to make a positive difference in the world.

CAE Methods Engineer
TSI is looking for a permanent full time experienced CAE methods engineer to complement our simulation services team. The successful candidate will help us support our team by developing new methods in our core business areas including structural mechanics, advanced materials, optimization, crashworthiness and multi-physics fields. The candidate will focus on methods development and application. The successful candidate is an accomplished CAE engineer with a proven history of solving real-world engineering problems. You can understand complex problems, and develop accurate, validated and effective simulation techniques to solve them using leading industry software. You will be able to review, interpret and present methods in a clear and concise manner, including conclusions and recommendation based on findings.
As an experienced researcher, you will adopt and implement novel methods to validate your work, and rigorous systems and processes to ensure your results are accurate and repeatable. You know when and how to use physical testing to support simulation and validate its results. This is not a meshing and model-building role, but rather a problem solving one. The diverse nature of our work makes it very important that the candidate demonstrates a strong theoretical background of both engineering and simulation technology.
