AI​/Simulation Engineer - Fire and Explosion

The UL Solutions Research and Development team and Modeling and Simulation team is seeking a Simulation Engineer with a strong CFD, fire dynamics and thermal sciences background to support fire and explosion hazard modeling. This role applies advanced computational fluid dynamics, heat transfer, and combustion modeling to evaluate battery fires, gas explosions, and performance‑based fire safety designs.

The engineer will primarily work with Flame Acceleration Simulator (FLACS) for deflagration explosion and gas dispersion analysis and Fire Dynamics Simulator (FDS), fire dynamics, smoke, and thermal impact modeling. The position supports large‑scale battery fire testing, performance‑based design (PBD), code compliance, and customer‑facing engineering projects within the energy and built‑environment sectors.

This role is intended for engineers trained in thermal‑fluid sciences or CFD, who wish to specialize in fire and explosion safety engineering.
