Résumé du poste

PhysicsX SG PTE. LTD. is seeking a CFD Engineer (Delivery) to solve engineering challenges by delivering high-fidelity simulations and practical CAE solutions.

You will work with machine learning/data science teams, leverage Star-CCM+/OpenFOAM/Fluent, and contribute to automation using NX/CATIA. Some travel to support customer engagements is expected.

Qualifications

• Growing foundation in fluid mechanics, heat transfer and multiphase modelling.
• Knowledge of Star-CCM+/OpenFOAM/Fluent preferred.
• Exposure to NX or CATIA and coding in Python/Java is a plus.
• 1–3 years of industry experience in a commercial setting.

Responsabilités

• Build CFD models from geometry clean-up through to simulation and post-processing for simple to moderate cases.
• Adapt CAD models (NX/CATIA) and contribute to automation for DoE and design optimisation.
• Support customer-facing work by presenting results under guidance, with growth toward independence.
• Work at the CAE/Data Science intersection to generate simulation datasets for ML training.
• Use Flux on cloud and HPC resources to run simulations and optimize setup for performance.
• Learn and apply engineering best practices and document gaps for onboarding new engineers.
• Occasionally travel (Europe, Asia, Oceania) to support customer engagements.

Description du poste

Re-architecting Engineering for the Age of Intelligence

PhysicsX is the physics AI company for industrials. The company’s mission is to accelerate hardware innovation by overhauling what industrial engineering and manufacturing look like today. PhysicsX is building a new simulation software stack to deliver deep physics AI enablement across the entire engineering lifecycle. The company partners with leading organisations in aerospace & defence, automotive, semiconductors, materials, and energy & renewables, supporting them on some of their most critical and complex challenges. PhysicsX is headquartered in the United Kingdom, with offices in London, New York, and Singapore and an expanding presence in the Bay Area.

Who We’re Looking For

As a CFD Engineer (Delivery), you are a problem solver and a builder, who is passionate about creating practical solutions that enable customers to make better engineering decisions. You are someone who can grasp and apply advanced engineering concepts across multiple industries, and you excel at working directly with customers (often directly on-site) to build CAE models that are integrated into AI-tools that are both useful and used.

We're building our Singapore presence from the ground up. This is a rare opportunity to join at the founding stage of a regional team, with the autonomy to help define what this team becomes.

You bring a growing foundation in fluid mechanics, heat transfer, and multiphase modelling, with the ability to apply core engineering principles to real-world problems under guidance from more senior colleagues. You have working knowledge of at least one of Star-CCM+, OpenFOAM, or Fluent, and are comfortable using built-in automation features to support scalable workflows. Exposure to parametric CAD modelling (NX or CATIA) and coding in Python/Java - or a demonstrated ability to pick up new tools and languages quickly - is an advantage.

With 1-3 years of industry experience (post-Masters or PhD) in a commercial, non-research environment, you're building your independence. You're comfortable setting up CFD simulations for moderately complex cases with some support, developing your ability to interpret results, and building the engineering judgement that comes from hands-on experience.

This Role

In this role, you'll work alongside our Data Scientists, Machine Learning Engineers, and (with support) our customers to help define and solve engineering challenges.

You'll contribute to delivering high-fidelity simulations by:

• Building models from geometry clean-up and meshing through to simulating and post-processing, for simple to moderately complex cases, with guidance from senior engineers on the more difficult aspects.
• Adapting and using parametric CAD models (NX or CATIA), and beginning to contribute to simulation pipeline automation for design optimisation and DoE studies.
• Supporting customer-facing work by helping prepare and present results clearly, under the direction of more senior team members, while building toward doing this independently.
• Working at the intersection of CAE and Data Science to help generate simulation datasets for training Machine/Deep Learning models, and developing your understanding of how data sampling choices affect model accuracy and cost.
• Using Flux (our cloud platform) and on-premise HPC resources to run simulations, and learning how to apply smarter meshing and setup choices to improve performance.
• Learning and applying engineering best practices, and helping adapt CFD model setups and outputs to support Deep Learning surrogate development.
• Contributing to a culture of collaboration and shared learning within the Simulation Engineering guild - for example, sharing what you learn, flagging gaps in documentation, or (at L2) starting to support onboarding of newer engineers.
• Travelling occasionally (Europe, Asia, Oceania) to support customer engagements alongside senior colleagues, with the expectation that this will increase as you build independence.
