Research Engineer, Computational Geometry

About The Role

We’re looking for a Research Engineer to join our team to help us conduct and apply research in computer-aided design (CAD) structures and topology for hardware design. In this role, you’ll apply your knowledge in mathematics, computational geometry, and topology to help us solve complex design optimization problems as we advance our first-of-its-kind, in-house Geometry Engine for hardware engineering.

What You’ll Do

• Perform independent data research and analysis from public research papers, forums, and other platforms that apply to our Geometry Engine capability, examples of topics including but not limited to: B-rep, NURBS, topology optimization (constraint-based solvers), differential geometry, etc
• Work closely with our Graphics Engine team to implement topological algorithms such as model resampling, CSG, shape cutting, etc
• Continuously monitor industry and research trends in computational geometry, geometric modeling, and computer-aided design and inform the team of key findings
• Help us document functionality and implementation details for production and other Engineers

What You’ll Need

• BS, MS, and/or PhD in Mathematics, Computer Science, or a related field, or equivalent professional experience
• Expertise in computer-aided design (CAD) structures and topology, including B-rep, CSG, and Euler topology
• Experience developing and implementing algorithms in C++ or a similar language
• Background in numerical methods and finite element analysis
• Experience with data extraction and analysis
