Job Title: Virtual Discrete Event Lead Simulation Engineer
Location: West Midlands
Rate: £33.30ph via an Umbrella Company (Inside IR35) or £25.30ph PAYE
Employment Type: Contract (Currently financed until March 2025)
Hours: Standard 40 Hours Per Week
Reference: J37507
Job Description:
Candidate will be responsible for the development and delivery of the Discrete Event Simulation model and documentation, modelling the process flow from concept thru to the delivery phase to JOB1 + 90 days.
The model will be developed to include, but not limited to:
- Discrete Event Simulation.
- Lead the DES model generation from concept modelling to fully detailed mimic of the programme / system that meet the design scope, operating principals, performance metrics, safety, quality, delivery, cost, people and environment objectives.
- Lead the system optimisation, cost avoidance, best practises capturing and sharing this with relevant Stakeholders.
- Able to work effectively with design teams to develop and optimise solutions considering multi-attributes within defined deadlines and time constraints.
- Guide the process using a product knowledge and awareness of potential design constraints to ensure due consideration is given in developing solutions.
- Co-ordinate and lead projects and teams feedback of results as required through design / project reviews / DES Dashboards.
- Lead optimisation of the DES model against different model derivative mixes and operational parameters.
- Lead the bottleneck analysis of the system and develop strategies to remove and lead volume throughput increase studies and system what ifs.
- Guide the process to adhere to the vehicle derivative sequencing and build to sequence rules.
- Support the continual development of tools and techniques which enhance capability, improve quality and robustness of DES models.
- Mentor and train Junior team members and graduates.
- Undertake any other work as directed by their line manager in connection with their job as may be requested.
Skills Required:
- Demonstrable working knowledge and experience of Discrete Event Simulation Toolset.
- Demonstrable previous experience and background in production process flow simulation, problem solving on complex technical systems.
- Demonstrable previous experience of bottleneck analysis using Discrete Event Simulation.
- Demonstrable previous experience of delivering Discrete Event Simulation to programme KPIs and targets.
