Hybrid & Remote options considered:
Junior Simulation Engineer (Hybrid & remote options considered) - East Midlands Company:
My client is a well-backed engineering software company. Their product does something most engineering teams would tell you isn't possible, it replaces analysis cycles that currently take a week with answers that come back in seconds. It's commercial, it's in use with real customers, and it's moving into new sectors The gap they're hiring for:
Our client need someone to own microstructure, grains, phases, damage mechanisms and connect it upwards into the component models that train the AI. Model the material properly and you can predict behaviour for alloys nobody has ever tested. That's what opens new industries for them, and it's precisely why this role exists. Day to day RVE and microstructure-sensitive models, crystal plasticity, phase field, micromechanical damage Homogenising that response into constitutive models that feed component-level structural and thermal simulation Abaqus user subroutines, calibrated and validated against real experimental data Python automation, microstructure generation, parametric sweeps, result extraction at training-data volume You'll need PhD (or equivalent industrial track record) in materials science, mechanical engineering, metallurgy or similar, computational focus Microstructure simulation experience, crystal plasticity, phase field, micromechanics, RVE/homogenisation FE background, Abaqus preferred, ANSYS, LS-DYNA, MOOSE and FEniCS people all considered Python, and the instinct to automate rather than click Nice to have:
-Fortran or C++ subroutines
-DAMASK, Neper, MOOSE/MARMOT, MICRESS
-Thermo-Calc or JMat Pro
-creep and fatigue in engineering alloys
-high-temperature steels or Ni-base superalloys
-weld/HAZ modelling
-surrogate or reduced-order modelling
-ASME, R5, R6 Digital Camel acts as an employment agency
