Linear Solver R&D Engineer II f/m

ANSYS recently released Discovery Live (www.ansys.com/discovery) a unique real-time easy-to-use simulation tool that we believe can make engineering simulation as pervasive as Excel. Some analysts have called it “one of the biggest breakthroughs in design and engineering technology in the last ten years”. This is certainly one of the most exciting technologies in the industry and a chance to work on the team that will transform how the products of tomorrow are engineered.

The R&D Engineer II contributes to the development of Discovery Live software product. In this role, the R&D Engineer II will collaborate with a team of expert professionals and help the product development team to accomplish development objectives.
