Job Purpose The CNH Soil and Crop Modeling (SCM) Team develops cutting-edge simulation technologies that help design and optimize agricultural equipment used around the world. Our team combines expertise in engineering, physics, and computational modeling to simulate how soil and crop materials interact with machine components, enabling faster innovation and more efficient product development.

SCM engineers utilize advanced modeling techniques, including the Discrete Element Method (DEM), Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), and Multi-Body Dynamics (MBD), to evaluate machine performance in virtual environments. These tools allow the team to support concept development, solve complex engineering challenges, and improve equipment designs long before physical testing begins.

As an SCM intern, you will work alongside experienced engineers on real-world projects, contributing directly to the development of virtual crop and soil models, simulation workflows, and validation activities. Interns are valued members of the team and play an active role in advancing CNH's simulation capabilities and engineering innovation Key Responsibilities

• Develop and validate virtual dust and debris models for heavy machinery and field operations using coupled Discrete Element Method (DEM) and Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulation software.
• Perform laboratory and field measurements of physical and mechanical dust and debris properties; process experimental data and incorporate findings into dust and debris simulation models.
• Develop coupled DEM-CFD models to simulate dust and debris generation, particle transport, and interactions with heavy equipment.
• Expand CNH’s library of virtual dust and debris models to support the simulation of agricultural/construction operations and equipment performance under varying conditions.
• Collaborate with soil modeling, design, simulation, and test engineering teams to support the design, validation, and continuous improvement of CNH heavy equipment.
