Member of Technical Staff - Thermal Simulation Engineer
About Us
We are building an AI assistant for hardware design. Our product helps engineers explore, analyze, and optimize hardware systems, integrating cutting-edge AI with the realities of engineering design workflows.
Role Summary
Hands-on technical role spanning validation, training data, and customers. Vinci's physics foundation model produces solver-accurate thermal results on full-resolution hardware — real geometry, nanometer-scale features, no simplification — across conduction, convection, and thermoelasticity. You'll prove that case by case: validating new solvers and methods against competitor FEA tools and measured data, generating the reference cases that train the model, running customer test cases end to end, and bringing what you learn back to research and product as feature definition. The ideal candidate has a strong thermal simulation foundation, reasons from first principles, and is comfortable presenting a result to a customer's thermal engineers who will not take your word for it.
What You'll Do
Validate new solvers and methods: build test cases that stress steady-state and transient conduction, convection, and thermoelastic stress and warpage, and benchmark them against competitor FEA tools and me
