A safer, low-carbon shipping industry is underpinned by data sharing. We at Wärtsilä Voyage are creating the digital infrastructure needed to enable high-performing maritime logistics. Through our world-leading Smart Marine portfolio, we support our customers in their efforts to ensure secure, highly energy-efficient and cost-effective marine operations.

Wärtsilä is on a mission to enable sustainable societies through innovation in technology and services. As we change course towards a cleaner, smarter maritime future, we’re looking for top talent to join our team. Are you ready to join the Voyage?

Wärtsilä Voyage is a high-tech, modern development centre, which has dozens of unique specialists. The company actively uses flexible development methodologies, a developed technological culture allows creating unique technical solutions.

We create integrated technological solutions to improve the safety and efficiency of shipping, navigation, and ship operations.

The team of Wärtsilä marine engineering simulators is looking forMath Modeller. You can become part of a team which works on a market leader product (45% market share) that imitates marine engineering functionality for vessels. The preferred location for this position is Helsinki, Finland but also Turku, Finland is negotiable. We offer a possibility to hybrid work.

Main responsibilities:

• Develop from the scratch for dynamic math models of vessel equipment and systems.
• Create front-end side of simulators.
• Compile technical documentation for these models.
• Take a part in agile activities.

To be successful in this position, we expect you to:

• Bs or MS in physics, applied math, engineering or similar field.
• Practical experience in imitation modelling of physical systems.
• Basic knowledge of numerical methods for solving PDE and DAE.
• Basic knowledge of OOP approach or any OOP language.
• Be able to formulate a problem correctly and plan ways to solve it.
• English intermediate or higher.
• Be agile.

We will be amazed if you have (but not mandatory):

• Be familiar with Open Modelica or any Modelica-based language.
• Have a background in marine engineering.

Practical experience in imitation modelling required in one of the areas:

• Hydraulics (gravity flow, pumping through pipeline, pump characteristics, pipeline elements’ resistance, Bernoulli equation, two-phase media flow (liquid + gas)).
• Heat Transfer (heat capacity of materials – solid, liquids, gases; heat exchange between various media; temperature transfer & temperature resistance of materials).
• Thermodynamics (ideal gas laws; real gas specifics; main thermodynamics parameters and characteristics, its interdependencies; thermodynamics laws; phase transitions).
• Mechanics (kinematics and dynamics of rigid body, rotational dynamics equations; mechanical energy parameters and equations, mechanical energy transitions, inertia characteristics; simple mechanisms).
• Automation and regulation (main principals and parameters; governors (controllers) – main types and work principals; controlled system parameters and dynamic).

Why you and us?

We at Wärtsilä believe in empowerment, ownership and taking responsibility of our work. We support each other’s growth, and co-creation is the true basis of our innovation. We have courage to see opportunities and take initiative.
