Computational Mechanics Engineer
Third Wave Systems, a leading
provider of CAE analysis software and services for machining manufacturing, is
seeking enthusiastic additions to our computational mechanics software
development team. This position holds
the primary responsibility of developing and implementing numerical methods,
finite element formulations, smooth particle hydrodynamics (SPH), meshless
methods, adaptive and initial mesh generation, three-dimensional geometry
engines, mechanistic machining models, constitutive models for the simulation
and optimization of metal, composite, and ceramic cutting processes. The Computational Mechanics Engineer (CME) will
collaborate with Applications Development, Applications Engineering and Product
Quality teams to translate customer requests and problems to internal
requirements.
Ideal candidate must hold a master’s
or Ph.D. degree in mechanical engineering or a related field, with experience in
one or more programming languages (C, C++, C#, OpenMP, OpenCL, CUDA, and
Fortran 95/90/77) and CAD/CAM systems. To
best complement to Third Wave Systems’ development capabilities, candidates
should have expertise in one or more of the following areas: explicit,
implicit, direct and iterative solution methodologies; thermo-mechanical
coupled analysis; mechanistic machining modeling; large deformation analysis;
adaptive and initial mesh generation; meshless methods; deformable contact;
shared and distributed memory parallel computing; plasticity; fracture
mechanics; and constitutive modeling for metals, composites, and ceramics. Knowledge of metal cutting processes is a
plus, but not required. Strong
communication and skills are required, along with the ability to build
relationships and work collaboratively across the organization.
Third Wave Systems offers
competitive pay and benefits within a technically challenging environment.
