In this position you will perform consulting work for customers, primarily producing mathematical models of their products (either future or existing) with a large range of goals including assisting new product development, failure analysis, control system design, etc. You will be responsible for projects, working with the respective business’ engineering teams, to provide engineering guidance and direction of the model development and finally delivering a packaged system model for use by the customer.
Principal Duties & Responsibilities:
- Model Development, Application, and Optimization: Analyze a product/system, break down the system to the fundamental physics, providing judgment of applicable levels of fidelity, and build a representative model. Use model to perform analysis, identify key parameters, suggest creative solutions, and finally communicate the optimized design specifications.
- Modeling Direction: Identify areas of weakness in the model: Suggests and/or directs experiments (either physical or simulation) or research to fill in gaps in the model. Successfully apply SciML in areas where accuracy increases are needed but physics are unknown. Identifies areas for efficiency boosts in model computation by eliminating un-needed complexity.
- Communication: Periodically prepares adequate reports, charts, and other data required to report project status to customers.
