CFD Multiphase & DEM Engineer
Position Summary & Responsibilities
About us
PhysicsX is the physics AI company for industrials. The companyβs mission is to accelerate hardware innovation by overhauling what industrial engineering and manufacturing look like today. PhysicsX is building a new simulation software stack to deliver deep physics AI enablement across the entire engineering lifecycle. The company partners with leading organisations in aerospace & defence, automotive, semiconductors, materials, and energy & renewables, supporting them on some of their most critical and complex challenges. PhysicsX is headquartered in the United Kingdom, with offices in London, New York, and Singapore and an expanding presence in the Bay Area.
Who Weβre Looking For
You are a problem solver and builder, passionate about creating practical solutions that help customers make better engineering decisions. You can grasp and apply advanced engineering concepts across multiple industries, and you excel at working directly with internal and external stakeholders, often on-site, to develop high-fidelity simulation models that feed into AI tools that are both useful and used.
You bring deep expertise in fluid mechanics, heat transfer, and multiphase modelling within bioprocess and chemical engineering environments. You are highly proficient in at least one of Star-CCM+, OpenFOAM, or Fluent, and experienced modelling the complex flow behaviour that arises in industrial bioprocess systems. You are adept at automating these tools to create scalable optimisation workflows. Experience in parametric CAD modelling (NX or CATIA) and coding in Python (or the ability to pick up new programming languages quickly) is an advantage.
What you'll do
- Proficiency in CFD solvers across open-source OpenFOAM and commercial platforms as a plus (Star-CCM+, Fluent or equivalent), including custom solver and boundary condition development.
- Develop multiphase flow models for gas-liquid, solid-liquid, VOF, Euler-Euler/Euler-Lagrange approaches) across a range of industrial and process engineering applications.
- Model non-Newtonian and complex fluid rheology modelling, including high-viscosity, shear-thinning, or particle-laden flow regimes
- Reactive and coupled-physics flow modelling β link CFD with reaction kinetics, heat transfer, or
