Job description

UL Solutions is seeking a Principal Engineer, Digital Twin Assurance, for the Modeling & Simulation Center of Excellence. This role evaluates digital twins and related digital engineering systems used to support engineering, business, safety, and lifecycle decisions.

The successful candidate will define how confidence in digital twins should be evaluated. This includes the technical basis of the digital representation, the quality and relevance of supporting data, and the processes used to maintain confidence as the system evolves.

A core requirement of this role is demonstrated experience in Verification & Validation (V&V), governance, and lifecycle assurance of simulations and digital engineering methods. The role treats digital twins as technical systems that may include models, data, software, connected assets, and operational processes.

This role requires experience in modeling and simulation, data integration, engineering analysis, AI and analytics, connected systems, and standards. Digital twin confidence depends on the model and the surrounding technical context. The goal is to help customers make credible decisions for design, certification support, operations, maintenance, and lifecycle management.

The Principal Engineer will help build this capability within UL Solutions. This person will apply sound engineering judgment, support customer and market learning, and turn digital twin assurance concepts into guidance customers can understand and use.
