Short description: As an R&D Software Developer (f/m/d) you will be creating new mathematical models and computer programs to simulate multiple physical domains such as thermal, electrical, mechanical and fluid for driveline systems. This is a highly technical role that requires you to have excellent mathematical modelling and programing skills. There is a strong need to think beyond conventional approaches to conceive of and develop new and innovative approaches.

 

Whether you're a recent graduate or early in your career, if you have relevant experience through work or projects, we’d love to hear from you.

Job Responsibilities

  • Development of mathematical models to simulate performance of various physical domains and their interactions. 
  • Development of analytical and numerical solvers (including time-stepping solvers) to solve ordinary and partial differential equations and differential algebraic equations.
  • Software implementation of mathematical models and solvers.
  • Extension of proof-of-concepts to full software implementations.
  • Documentation of technical methods.

Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s degree in physics, mathematics, computer science or any relevant engineering discipline.
  • Proficiency in object-oriented programming and appreciation for good software architecture.
  • Proficiency in a programming language (preferably C++).
  • Experience in physics-based modelling.
  • Experience in multi-body dynamics or multi-physics simulation (preferred).
  • Collaborative approach and good communication skills.
  • Flexibility and willingness to learn and work in other programming languages such as C# and Smalltalk.
  • Fluency in English (written and spoken)

 

 

While we appreciate every application, please note that we are currently unable to provide visa sponsorship or work permit support for roles based in the UK.

What we offer

  • The opportunity to develop world-leading software tools for rotating machinery, making a real impact on the design and analysis of electro-mechanical systems.
  • Work on a diverse range of software applications used by leading companies in automotive, motorsport, aerospace, and renewable energy sectors.
