Job Description
Virtual Simutech is conducting a Consolidated Internship Program – CAD & CAE for engineering students and graduates. The program is open to candidates pursuing or completing B.E/B.Tech/M.E/M.Tech in relevant engineering disciplines. This is a 6-month internship program with opportunities across CAD Engineering, Moldflow, CAE Structural Optimization, and CAE/CFD Process Automation using Python and AI/ML. The internship will be conducted in Pune and Bangalore, with the program designed to provide practical exposure to real-world engineering workflows, industry tools, simulation, design optimization, automation, and digital engineering.
Roles and Responsibilities
- CAD Responsibilities: Create sketches, parts, assemblies, and engineering drawings. Apply GD&T, fits, and tolerances. Consider manufacturing feasibility during design. Support plastics, sheet metal, BIW, and simulation-ready modelling. Prepare BOMs, ECN documentation, design logs, and revision history. Participate in design reviews. Present final project outcomes.
- CAE Structural Optimization Responsibilities: Identify a suitable component for weight reduction. Perform baseline FEA. Define materials, loads, and boundary conditions. Set optimization objectives and constraints. Run topology, topography, size, shape, or free-shape optimization as applicable. Interpret optimization results. Reconstruct the optimized CAD geometry. Validate the final design through FEA. Prepare a final validation report and presentation.
- CAE/CFD Automation Responsibilities: Identify CAE/CFD workflows suitable for automation. Develop modular Python scripts integrated with CAE APIs. Collect, clean, and organize simulation data. Train and validate basic AI/ML models. Use AI/ML for prediction, optimization, or decision support. Document methodology and script usage. Measure workflow efficiency improvements. Prepare a final technical report and presentation.
- Moldflow Responsibilities: Perform filling analysis. Perform packing analysis. Perform cooling analysis. Perform warpage analysis. Support mold optimization. Prepare simulation reports. Collaborate with design and tooling teams.
