Mathematical Software Developer (27479)

Cambridge
to £50,000 DoE + Benefits

Brand new product development in multi-billion-dollar industry

This is an exciting opportunity to use your skills in numerical analysis and numerical methods to develop engineering simulation software to be used widely in industry. This team has been leading the way for many decades and has a strong client base of multi-national companies. They are building a new product and are seeking talented scientists and engineers to join this effort.

The new category they are entering requires solving a range of PDEs and ODEs from different areas of physics and therefore requires strong understanding of numerical methods and analysis to produce a robust and efficient algorithm. It is these core skills that are most important for this role. Ultimately your work will need to be implemented in code, so some skills with numerical programming are also important.

Requirements:

  • PhD in a STEM subject with exposure to developing numerical simulation code
  • Good numerical programming skills (Python, C++, Fortran, C#, etc)
  • Strong interpersonal skills to work collaboratively with the rest of the team

You will be joining a team of mathematicians and scientists with a range of skills all working on the core mathematics. You will also be working closely with a team of programmers who will develop the rest of the application. The working style is formal and collaborative and you should expect to spend most of the week in their offices with one day optionally home working.

Please note: even if you don't have exactly the background indicated, do contact us now if this type of job is of interest - we may well have similar opportunities that you would be suited to. And of course, we always get your permission before submitting your CV to a company.
