Process Modeling Engineer

Automotive Cells Company (ACC) est une co-entreprise créée à l'été 2020 par **Saft-Total**, le **Groupe PSA et Opel** (devenus **Stellantis** depuis)et **Mercedes-Benz**. Notre ambition est de produire des batteries au meilleur niveau technologique tout en rendant la mobilité électrique accessible au plus grand nombre.

Pour donner vie à cette ambition, à la fois pour notre centre de R&D et notre ligne test en Nouvelle Aquitaine, mais aussi pour nos gigafactories dans les Hauts de France et en Allemagne nous recherchons des personnes **compétentes et agiles**, notamment dans les domaines aussi diverses et variés que la R&D, l'industrialisation, la conception mécanique, les tests/prototypageset toute autre fonction d'une entreprise en pleine construction.

Si vous cherchez à faire évoluer votre carrière au-delà de ce que vous aviez imaginé, si vous êtes passionné par la création de transports plus propres, si rejoindre l'industrie du futur vous excite, n'hésitez plus et rejoignez nous.

**Job description**:
The Process Modeling Engineer - Junior will model Unit process involved in Li-Ion production using model-based numerical simulations. He/she will develop numerical models based on the current knowledge on the physics involved, using commercial or in-house simulation tools; this may include a wide variety of physical phenomena such fluid dynamics, thermal dynamics, mechanical behavior or chemistry. He/she will draw on the expertise of the simulation team to determine the best numerical strategy to provide an appropriate response to the needs of our internal customers' need.

He/she will support design and scaling-up of new processes, answer to Industrial teams’ needs and contribute to the design of the experimental procedures required to calibrate his/her models.

He/she will be required to present the main results of his/her studies internally and to customers. He/she shall be up to date state of the art process simulation activities and manage external contracts and collaborations. He/she will manage his simulation environment.

As a Process Modeling Engineer - Junior you should be familiar with the following tasks:

- Support in setting up and optimising pilot lines and gigafactories by modelling processes
- Manage internal and external projects and contracts, while collaborating with internal teams (R&D, Industrialization, Projects, Simulation,)
- Develop 0D/1D/2D/3D models, based on a pre-identified set of physics-based equations, using pre-existing commercial software or pre-existing in-house numerical tools
- Manage collaborations with suppliers, customers and strategic partners
