Embark on a journey with us, where you can innovate for a future that we want to make smarter and greener, in a responsible and sustainable way. Our technology starts with you.
THE TEAM
The Mechanical Simulation Intern will join the Module and Optics Research and Development team which is part of the wider ST Imaging Division.
The group, which has expertise in optical, mechanical, and electrical disciplines, are responsible for designing precision opto-mechanical technologies, incorporating ST silicon sensors and optics to produce state-of-the-art optical and photonics devices. The products, such as time-of-flight laser sensors, ambient light sensors, and cameras, are designed for the consumer, mobile, industrial and automotive markets.
The devices are designed and developed in cooperation with other ST groups around the world and in partnership with suppliers and subcontractors. With a strong design emphasis on cost and industrialisation for very high volume, ST sensors are developed using state of the art materials, components, and precision automated assembly processes.

YOUR ROLE
The role in the mechanical simulation team will entail combining simulation with experimental measurements to analyse different semiconductor packages. The successful applicant will primarily work on developing new modelling techniques and helping to evaluate their efficacy for future applications. Potential research topics may include, homogenised material property application in Finite element analysis (FEA), transient thermal response of a system in package (SIP), parameterised stress analysis of package structures.
FEA and thermal computational fluid dynamics (CFD) are performed using ANSYS commercial tools, augmented by Python and Excel for experimental data signal filtering and post processing. Code development in Python will be part of the role.
The role provides an opportunity to collaborate with engineers across multi-disciplinary teams, including mechanical designers, measurement analysts, and electrical systems engineers. The ideal candidate will have an analytical mindset with the confidence to take on challenging numerical tasks independently, as well as an inquisitive nature for open collaboration with other team members.

YOUR SKILLS & EXPERIENCES
* Working towards a Master's degree in Mechanical Engineering.
* Ideally some experience in FEA, alternatively experience in using matrix methods for structural analysis.
* Candidate will have completed courses in; Solid mechanics with competence in analytical solutions, thermodynamics with good understanding of Fourier's law of heat conduction, and material science of dielectrics (ceramics), metals, polymers.
* Proven experience in using Python or MatLab.
* CAD modelling experience ideal (any package).
