1D Systems Simulation Engineer

Location

Thiruvananthapuram

Experience

2-5 years

Education

B.E./B.Tech or M.Tech in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Naval Architecture, or related disciplines

About the Role

We are seeking a technically strong engineer to join our 1D Systems Simulation team , focused on modeling and simulating complex engineering systems using one-dimensional, system-level representations .

This role emphasizes system behavior, energy and flow interactions, and performance trade-offs , rather than detailed 3D geometry. You will develop and apply network-based and flow-path models to understand how subsystems interact and how design choices affect overall system efficiency, robustness, and operability.

The ideal candidate has strong engineering physics fundamentals and hands-on experience with fluid, thermal, and energy systems , with exposure to aerospace and/or naval platforms being a strong advantage.

Responsibilities

• Develop, maintain, and refine 1D system-level simulation models representing complex physical systems
• Build flow-path and network-based models to analyze system performance, efficiency, and operating envelopes
• Model bulk and system quantities such as pressure, temperature, mass flow, heat transfer, energy, and power
• Integrate and couple component-level models (e.g., pumps, valves, compressors, heat exchangers, generators ) into complete system architectures
• Perform design trade studies, parametric analyses, and sensitivity studies to support architecture and design decisions
• Support verification and validation of models using test data, analytical calculations, or higher-fidelity simulations
• Collaborate with multidisciplinary teams to translate system requirements and architectures into executable simulation models
• Clearly document assumptions, modeling approaches, limitations, and results for technical reviews and downstream use

Qualifications

• Bachelors or Masters degree in Mechanical, Aerospace, Naval Architecture, or related engineering fields
• 25 years of experience in system modeling, simulation, or physics-based analysis
• Strong fundamentals in:
• Fluid mechanics
• Thermodynamics
• Heat transfer
• Experience working with reduced-order, lumped-parameter, or system-level models
• Ability to think holistically at the system level , understanding interactions and coupling effects rather than isolated components
