* Ensuring high-quality and robust implementation of core CFD solver components in Simcenter STAR-CCM+
* Supporting maintenance of our existing capability (bug fixing, code refactoring, etc.)
* Design and development of new features based on requests from both product management and internal strategic initiatives
* Participating in regularly scheduled team meetings and contributing ideas to drive innovation in our technology
* Supporting other developers through design discussion and code review
Required Knowledge/Skills, Education, and Experience:
* A Masters or PhD degree in engineering or physical science discipline, ideally focusing on novel schemes for fast simulation
* 2 years experience in commercial CFD software development, or 5 years experience in non-commercial CFD software development
* Expertise in implementing numerical methods for solution of the Navier-Stokes equations
* Expertise in numerical modeling of aerodynamic and hydrodynamic applications
* Expertise in object-oriented C++ software development
* Expertise in high-fidelity and high-performance parallel CFD algorithms on heterogeneous architectures, including GPUs
* Expertise in development of complex software applications using modern design patterns and principles
Preferred Knowledge/Skills, Education, and Experience:
In addition, preference will be given to candidates with the following skills and experience:
* Expertise in areas of physical science: thermodynamics, heat transfer, multiphase, or combustion
* Expertise in application of CFD methods: vehicle aerodynamics, internal combustion engines, turbomachinery
* Experience with Java programming
* Experience in multi-team, collaborative software development including source control and collaborative design and code reviews
