About this role

About the Role

We’re looking for an expert in mesoscale, multiphysics modeling and simulation to support the development of machine-learning physics surrogates.

This is a flexible, on-demand engagement, with work assigned based on project and task needs.

What You’ll Do

  • Develop and refine algorithms for mesoscale and multiphysics simulations
  • Design and run simulations to generate high-quality training and evaluation data for ML physics surrogates
  • Assess simulation outputs for physical accuracy, numerical stability, and suitability for machine learning
  • Contribute domain expertise to the design and validation of physics-based datasets and surrogate models
  • Document methodologies, assumptions, and results clearly for technical teams

Requirements

  • PhD or equivalent expertise in computational physics, applied mathematics, engineering, materials science, or a closely related field
  • Deep experience with mesoscale modeling, multiphysics simulation, and numerical methods
  • Experience developing or modifying scientific simulation algorithms
  • Strong understanding of numerical modeling, physical systems, and simulation data generation
  • Proficiency with relevant scientific computing tools and programming languages such as Python, C++, Julia, MATLAB, or similar
  • Professional fluency in English

Nice to Have

  • Experience developing or training ML surrogate models / reduced-order models for physical systems
  • Experience generating large-scale simulation datasets for machine learning
  • Familiarity with scientific ML, physics-informed ML, or operator-learning approaches
  • Experience with HPC or parallel scientific computing
