Deputy Manager

As a Mechanical Design Engineer within the Center of Excellence (COE) team at Luminous Power Technologies, you’ll play a crucial role in the complete product development process for the FutureX R&D Team. Here are your key responsibilities:

• Structural  Analysis:
• Apply analytical and numerical methods to perform structural FEA analysis of Power Backup Solution products like, Inverters, Batteries, Solar Panel etc.
• Stay informed about industry trends and advancements packaging design and high-speed design evaluation.
• Transportation Analysis for LKVA and HKVA Inverter Projects:
• Transportation analysis involves assessing how the inverter components will behave during shipping and handling. Consider factors like vibration, shock, and impact to ensure the inverter withstands transportation stresses.
• Design the cost-effective packaging for LKVA inverter to transport product without damage.
• Concept Validation Static Structural and Vibrational Analysis:
• Static structural analysis evaluates the inverter and Li-ion batteries response to static loads (e.g., weight, pressure) particularly for wall mounting kind of products.
• Vibrational analysis assesses how the inverter and Li-ion battery respond to dynamic loads (e.g., vibration, shock and drop). Virtually validate the product before going for UN 38.3, AIS-156 certification.
• Predict the solar panel behavior under high wind and adverse weather conditions.
• Rubber gasket simulation for proper fitting for IP 67 product design.
• Cost and DOE Simulation for Optimization:
• Design of Experiments (DOE) helps optimize parameters (e.g., fasteners, sheet metal thickness).
• Simulate different scenarios to minimize costs while maintaining enough structural strength.
• Drop and Impact Dynamics Explicit Analysis:
• Using LS-Dyna tool, perform the drop analysis of LKVA inverter with packaging, Li-ion Batteries to predict the product failure in such drop, impact or other accidental event.
• Hail Impact analysis of solar panel for ICE-61215 standard certification.
• PCB Mounting Location Optimization:
• Ensure proper PCB mounting to prevent vertical mounted component failures under vibrational condition.
• Simulate solder joints, thermal effects, and mechanical stress on the PCB mounted components.
• Consider factors like vibration, shock, and impact to ensure the inverter withstands transportation stresses.
• RCA analysis for field trial failure:
• Perform RCA for field trial failure of Inverter, batteries or solar panel using FEA and suggest solution to prevent that failure.
• Plastic Part simulation:
• Perform plastic panel simulation, plastic part snap fit joint structural analysis.
• Plastic injection molded part structural analysis for static and dynamics loading conditions to optimize the part thickness and ribs designs.

• Documentation and Support:
• Create and maintain accurate documentation, including design specifications, FEA analysis reports, and vibration, shock and other Mechanical test data.
• Offer technical guidance and support to junior engineers when needed.

• Supplier and Testing laboratories Collaboration:
• Visit and collaborate with suppliers related to material properties, and testing laboratories for different material level testing, vibration, shock or other static or dynamic loading testing and test procedure.

• Continuous Learning:
• Stay updated on industry trends and emerging technologies related to structural solutions and simulation models.
