Position Overview:

Siemens Digital Industry Software is seeking software development professionals to contribute to our Turbulence (TRB) and Aeroacoustics (AERO) programs. The primary focus of these programs within our Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) division is the development of advanced capabilities within Siemens DI’s flagship multi-physics simulation product, Simcenter STAR-CCM+.

The TRB and AERO programs are responsible for developing accurate, robust and efficient turbulence and computational aeroacoustics (CAA) modelling that could be applied to complex industrial flows, such as turbomachinery, external aerodynamics, and internal combustion engines.

As a program member, you will be expected to contribute to both development of new features and maintenance of existing functionality. Your responsibility will be to ensure a well-designed, high-quality, robust implementation; efficient operation; and good scalability in our highly-parallel, client-server platform.

Required Knowledge/Skills, Education, and Experience:

Candidates applying for this position are required to have the following skills and experience:

• A Master’s or PhD degree in engineering or physical science discipline, ideally focusing on either turbulence or aeroacoustics modelling.
• 2 years’ experience in commercial CFD software development, or, 5 years’ experience in non-commercial CFD software development.
• Expertise in implementing and testing turbulence and CAA methods.
• Expertise in numerical modeling of aerodynamic and hydrodynamic applications.
• Expertise in object-oriented C++ software development.
• Expertise in high-fidelity and high-performance parallel CFD algorithms.
• Expertise in development of complex software applications using modern design patterns and principles.

Preferred Knowledge/Skills, Education, and Experience:

In addition, preference will be given to candidates with the following skills and experience:

• Expertise in areas of physical science: thermodynamics, heat transfer, multiphase, or combustion.
• Expertise in application of CFD methods: vehicle aerodynamics, internal combustion engines, turbomachinery.
• Experience with Java programming.
• Experience in multi-team, collaborative software development including source control and collaborative design and code reviews.
