CFD Engineer

Vinci4d•Palo Alto, CA

36d•Hybrid

About The Position

We're building a co-pilot for hardware designers. Our mission is to enable 9M mechanical engineers to iterate through designs 1000x faster. We are building our geometry + physics driven foundation model for each class of part design Already raised the first round of capital from Khosla Ventures! About You You are a Computational Fluid Dynamicist writing flow solvers for complex geometry applications. Examples of such applications include external flows over moving vehicles (planes, missiles, automobiles etc), flow through machinery such as ducts, turbo-machinery, refrigeration systems, computer heat sinks etc. You are excited when you hear phrases like conjugate heat transfer, multi-physics applications, complex geometries.

Requirements

10+ years of experience developing and shipping products
2+ years of experience working on GPU solvers.
Experience with Finite Volume incompressible flow solver techniques, linear solver methods and libraries
Experience architecting, training and deploying a feature in resource constrained environments.
Experience with the related technologies, libraries, and languages: C++, CUDA, Python
Experience with standard modern software development tools and practices.
You are excited about entrepreneurship, taking things from 0 to 1, and have a continuous learning mindset.
You are excited about building a solver that will increase engineer productivity by orders of magnitude
You thrive when you have autonomy and ownership over your work

Nice To Haves

Experience with multi-physics solver development is an advantage
