  • To assess simulation/analysis scope from customer’s requirements and provide technical input to agree the requirements with senior managers and/or chief engineers.
  • To analyse electro-magnetic designs using various analysis tools, templates and techniques to meet customer or internal requirements.
  • To understand and use first principles engineering to provide calculations to qualify more sophisticated analyses.
  • To interpret electro-magnetic analysis results and provide design direction where necessary supported by analysis reports.
  • To chair technical meetings with customers and to ensure all due customer-facing actions are completed.
  • To support less experienced analysis engineers.
  • To support the Business Development team in seeking out new business and marketing opportunities.
  • To write reports, documentation and present data at all levels across the organisation.
