Senior Topology Optimization Engineer

Ignite Next GmbH; Lausanne; Hybrid; CHF 140.000 - 200.000; Vollzeit

Zusammenfassung

Corintis is seeking a Computational Optimization Engineer to develop optimization technology that defines the internal geometry of our cooling products. You will report to the Head of Software Engineering and collaborate with computational, product, and manufacturing teams.

The role focuses on translating mathematical formulations into tested modules used by engineers daily, with responsibilities spanning topology optimization, homogenization, and multiscale design to improve thermal performance

Qualifikationen

• Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Civil Engineering, Computational Engineering, Applied Mathematics, Materials Science, Physics, or a related field.
• Expertise in topology optimization (density-based, level-set, or shape optimization).
• Experience with homogenization, multiscale modeling, and computing effective material properties.
• Solid background in finite element method and numerical PDEs.
• Experience with sensitivity analysis, adjoint methods, and gradient-based optimization.
• Proficiency in Python and/or C++ for reliable scientific software.

Aufgaben

• Develop and implement numerical methods for topology optimization, PDE-constrained optimization, and multiscale material design.
• Formulate and solve optimization problems involving homogenization, effective material properties, and microstructure-driven performance.
• Design, implement, and maintain simulation and optimization software in Python and/or C++.
• Build workflows that combine finite element analysis, sensitivity analysis, adjoint methods, and gradient-based optimization.
• Apply homogenization to characterize lattices, composites, and architected microstructures.
• Translate engineering requirements into computational models and optimized designs.
• Verify and validate numerical models, optimization algorithms, and results.
• Document methods, code, and results and present outcomes to technical and non-technical colleagues.
• Monitor advances in topology optimization and computational mechanics and integrate applicable ones into software.
