Epsilon FEA, LLC specializes in providing design and analysis services using numerical predictions through Finite Element Analysis (FEA) and Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations. With a focus on accuracy and cost-efficiency, the company leverages extensive experience and close collaboration with clients to customize solutions that minimize risk while adopting the latest simulation technologies.
Role Description:
We regularly support niche and advanced technologies across many industries. Our projects frequently involve new product domains, unfamiliar requirements, and evolving toolsets. This role is for someone who thrives on continuous learning and first-principles problem solving. This position requires someone practiced at client-facing project estimation and execution to budget, and comfortable engaging in fast-paced, technical discussions with experienced engineers and decision-makers.
Role Overview:
50% – Advanced Simulation (Hands-On) with ANSYSDynamics (shock & vibration) Thermal analysisCFD experience helpful but not required You should be comfortable building, defending, and clearly explaining complex models — not simply operating software.25% – Technical Oversight & Method Integrity Write SOWs based on customer conversations, balancing project goals, cost, and risk, and identify creative cost-effective pathways to achieve technical objectives. Ensure rigor and error assessment across multiple physics domains (fatigue, plasticity, abrasion, dynamics, thermal, CFD, DEM, implicit methods, etc.)Leverage AI tools where appropriate to improve workflow and insight Success in this role requires strong engineering judgment, the ability to synthesize information quickly, and respond clearly during live technical discussions.25% – Operational & Business Leadership Forecasting and vendor management Compliance (ITAR, CMCC, quality systems) Systems planning (IT and archiving) Marketing materials and website technical content Strategic planning We are willing to develop the right candidate in these areas. You should, however, understand how engineering services firms operate — including utilization, scope risk, and client communication. Compensation & Structure
This is a full-time, hybrid (remote & in-office in Minneapolis, MN) position with schedule flexibility. Hourly or salary structure Performance-based incentives and profit-sharing
