Software Engineer Advanced (f/m/x) - Numerical Methods and Linear Algebra
Are you eager to work in a very innovative and international environment? Do you want to be part of the success of our simulation solutions? If that's a yes, then you could be at the heart of our Simcenter software at Siemens!
Position Overview
In this position, you will design,implement, and maintain high-performance algorithms for Structural Engineeringanalyses. You will work on the Simcenter Nastran application, primarily in theStructural Dynamics domain. You will be part of the Simcenter Nastran NumericalMethods Group, and report to the Software Engineering Manager for the StructuralDynamics and Numerical Methods Team.
In this role, you will develop in-depthknowledge of dynamics algorithms in Nastran, and in particular performanceoptimization and parallelization of finite element analyses of structures.These approaches include use of SMP and DMP parallelization, graph-basedpartitioning, highly scalable iterative and direct sparse solvers, and reducedrepresentations. You will work within an Agile team to help refine and estimatedevelopment items supporting customer requirements. You will design, implement,and test new features, and extensions to existing functionality. Lastly, youwill set an example by using the most modern development approach that ispractical for implementing new features.
Responsibilities
Your primary responsibilities will beto:
- Work effectively within anAgile Team, by focusing on determining the best algorithmic approach anddelivering testable implementations as frequently as possible. You will also beexpected to support the team by focusing equally on team and individual goalsand embracing opportunities to collaborate.
- Extend current finiteelement analyses in Nastran to deliver faster and more accurate answers tocomplex engineering problems through algorithmic enhancements.
- Learn to useNastran-specific utilities for effectively managing system resources, e.g.memory and I/O.
- Work with team members towrite effective tests for new and existing code, in support of ourzero-regression policy.
- Where necessary, integratenew or upgraded software packages into Nastran, in support of performanceimprovement initiatives.
Job tasks:
- Design and implementhigh-performance algorithms.
- Build, compile, and debugcomplex code, both in-house and externally developed.
- Support the goals of theteam, via active participation in planning, daily scrum, sprint review, andretrospectives.
- Thoroughly understand corenumerical algorithms for Structural Mechanics.
- Fix customer issues in atimely manner, as prioritized in cooperation with the product owner.
