About this role
Atomic Industries is reinventing how the world makes things, focusing on speeding up manufacturing processes through AI-driven technology. As a Simulation Engineer, you will develop high-fidelity models for manufacturing processes and collaborate with teams to deploy simulation pipelines that enhance production efficiency.
Responsibilities:
- Develop and implement simulations for thermal, structural, and material processes
- Validate models against physical test data and real production outcomes
- Work with mesh and CAD data to define simulation-ready geometry representations
- Integrate solvers and workflows into cloud/on-prem hybrid infrastructure
- Collaborate with geometry and software teams to inform design and automation logic
- Optimize simulation runtimes for performance and fidelity
Requirements:
- 5+ years of experience with physics-based simulation (FEA, CFD, or related)
- Deep understanding of mechanical behavior, contact mechanics, heat transfer, or fluid flow
- Experience with commercial or custom solvers (Ansys, Abaqus, COMSOL, in-house)
- Proficiency in Python and/or C++
- Familiarity with geometry formats like B-rep, STL, and volumetric meshes
- Strong ability to reason from first principles and validate models against the real world
- Experience in manufacturing or product design contexts
- Familiarity with GPU acceleration or distributed compute
- Background in simulation automation or surrogate modeling
- Integration of simulation results into design or optimization systems
