Research Scientist I/II, Multiscale & Multiphysics Simulations
$176,000–$304,000 year
On-site · Cambridge, Massachusetts, United States
Job Summary
Research Scientist I/II, Multiscale & Multiphysics Simulations focusing on building next-generation in silico multiphysics and multiscale capabilities. Develop and deploy robust multiphysics models across coupled domains (thermal, fluid, structural, electromagnetic, chemical) using FEM/CFD methods; create integrated multiscale frameworks linking atomistic to continuum representations; design programmatic, agent-driven simulation workflows for autonomous, closed-loop discovery; build GPU-accelerated pipelines and interoperable APIs connecting tools (e.g., COMSOL, ANSYS) and cloud-based HPC; collaborate with AI/software/automation teams to enable automated experiment–simulation feedback and accelerated R&D.
Required Qualifications
- PhD in Mechanical Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Materials Science, or a related field
- Extensive experience with multiphysics simulation methods and numerical algorithms (FEM, CFD, TCAD/process simulation, mesoscale modelling, or related techniques)
- Strong foundation in coupled physical phenomena (heat transfer, fluid dynamics, structural mechanics, mass transport, diffusion, electromagnetism, reaction kinetics)
- Experience applying simulation to real-world systems in industrial settings (semiconductors, chemical processing, aerospace, or materials manufacturing)
- Solid programming skills in Python and building simulation workflows, automation pipelines, or custom numerical models
