Job description
(e.g., AutoCAD) for layout creation.Job RequirementsThe Simulation Engineer will develop, validate, and analyze discrete-event simulation models of warehouse facilities, incorporating automation, conveyors, and WMS software. The goal is to identify bottlenecks, improve efficiency, and validate operational scenarios before implementation.Modeling & Simulation: Design and build 3D simulation models of distribution centers and warehouse logistics using software like FlexSim, Simio, or AnyLogic.Data Analysis & Validation: Analyze operational data (e.g., order profiles, inventory levels, stock audit ) to validate simulation models, ensuring they accurately represent real-world operations.Process Optimization: Conduct experiments to identify bottlenecks, test "what-if" scenarios, and optimize resource requirements (staffing, automated equipment).WMS Integration: Simulate interactions between physical equipment (AGVs, ASRS, conveyors) and warehouse software systems (e.g., SAP EWM, Manhattan Associates).Documentation & Reporting: Create detailed technical reports and visualizations (Tableau, R) to present findings to stakeholders and support data-driven decision-making.Cross-Functional Collaboration: Collaborate with engineering and operations teams to integrate simulation results into final warehouse designs., A successful audio technology startup is seeking an Application Engineer specialized in audio AI and acoustic simulation.
