Senior Simulation Engineer

About the role

We are looking for an experienced Senior Simulation Engineer to design and develop dynamic simulation models for our flexible pipe production facility. You will work with AnyLogic to create accurate representations of complex manufacturing lines, support production optimization, and provide data‑driven insights for capacity planning.

Key responsibilities

• Develop discrete‑event, continuous/rate‑based, and agent‑based models using AnyLogic.
• Model flexible pipe manufacturing processes, including machines, rollers, reels, buffers, operators, and material flow.
• Simulate continuous pipe production, line speeds, material consumption, reel transfers, and storage constraints.
• Represent production interruptions such as bobbin depletion, welding stops, reel changes, changeovers, restart delays, and machine downtime.
• Analyze bottlenecks, machine utilization, work‑in‑process, storage capacity, and throughput.
• Create input parameters, scenarios, dashboards, charts, and output reports within AnyLogic.
• Integrate machine‑learning components to iterate model behavior.
• Collaborate with production, engineering, and supply‑chain teams to validate assumptions and improve model accuracy.
• Maintain and update models as machinery, layout, or product specifications change.
• Travel internationally, including visits to Denmark and Brazil.

Required profile

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Industrial, Manufacturing, Mechanical, Production, or Systems Engineering or a related field.
• 3–8 years of experience in simulation modeling for manufacturing or industrial systems.
• Strong hands‑on experience with AnyLogic.
• Solid understanding of discrete‑event, continuous/rate‑based, and hybrid simulation techniques.

Required skills

• AnyLogic simulation software
• Discrete‑event simulation (DES)
• Continuous/rate‑based simulation
• Hybrid modeling
• AnyLogic Process Modeling Library
• Agents, events, statecharts, parameters, functions, custom logic
• Integration of machine‑learning models with simulation
