Senior FEA Engineer

Are you passionate about Finite Element Analysis, Fatigue and Structural Durability? Do you thrive in an innovative environment where cutting-edge engineering and real-world impact go hand in hand? If so, you might be the perfect match for our next Senior FEA Engineer, a role where your skills will help shape the future of world-leading robot technology. 

Teradyne Robotics — Redefining Automation Together

At Teradyne Robotics, we’re shaping the future of automation. As part of Teradyne Inc., we unite market leading automation brands Universal Robots and MiR to create next-generation robotics for markets across the world. With over 110,000 industrial collaborative robots and autonomous mobile robots sold globally, we’re transforming industries and empowering businesses of all sizes. We’re proud to say that our customers count on us.

Key Responsibilities:
As a Senior FEA Engineer at Universal Robots, you will play a key role in shaping the next generation of collaborative robots. Working in dynamic, cross functional project teams, you help transform bold ideas into high-quality products used by customers worldwide. You’ll be surrounded by skilled and inspiring colleagues who share a passion for pushing technology forward. 

In this role, you will not only help bring new innovations to market, but you will also drive the development of our simulation and strength assessment capabilities, pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in robotics and elevating the performance of our future products. 

You simulate for the future by: 

• Driving design excellence through high-quality FEA simulations and design optimization 

• Translating complex simulation results into clear, actionable insights for engineers and stakeholders 

• Building smarter ways of working by creating workflows, best practices, and powerful tools for our design and simulation teams 

• Advancing our simulation capabilities so we continuously push the limits of what our models can predict and achieve 

• Performing advanced fatigue and static strength assessments to secure robustness and reliability 

• Collaborating closely with our Test Engineering team to define materials, load cases, and validation strategies 
  
  

Your background – What you bring to the table   

We’re looking for a skilled and motivated simulation engineer with a strong analytical mindset and a structured, detail-oriented approach. You take ownership, enjoy solving complex problems, and strive to continuously improve both your engineering skills and the tools around you. 

We imagine you bring: 

• M.Sc. or Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering 

• Solid experience with FEA—static, dynamics, multibody, modal, fatigue, fracture, and Multiphysics 

• Experience with ANSYS and scripting (e.g., Python, APDL, MATLAB) 

• Knowledge of robust design methods such as FMEA, DFM, DFA 

• Experience with SolidWorks or similar CAD tools 

As English is our corporate language, fluency is a must. Danish is a plus but not required. 

 
What are we looking for?

We’re looking for people who lead by example—no matter their role.
You thrive in a culture built on openness, integrity, and customer focus. You seek diverse perspectives, treat others with respect, and have the courage to do the right thing, even when it’s hard. You own your work, deliver results, and push the limits through innovation. You’re motivated by collaboration, continuous improvement, and a commitment to making everyone better.

Join Teradyne Robotics and help redefine automation. Shape next year’s innovations. Move a fast-growing industry forward. Build a career that matters. You can do it all here.

We employ over 1,000 people worldwide. If you’re ready to make an impact, apply today. We review applications on a rolling basis, so don’t wait!
