Maths, Physics, CompSci Graduates | Oxford | Harwell Campus | Hybrid Working | £35,000 -£60,000 per annum
Our client is a pioneering force in the field of subsurface reservoir simulation. They leverage massively-parallel computation to solve the complete reservoir simulation problem – from subsurface fluid flow in porous media to surface networks of pipes. They are also exploring the use of AI for developing a proxy model of the full simulator. They are seeking new members of the team with an interest in using high-performance computing for Physics applications.
As the company is small, you will have the opportunity to work in a wide range of areas – the ideal candidate would be able to work on the technical side as well as engage with existing and potential clients.
The technical work may effectively be split into two fields - Physics and Software Engineering:
Physics
* Multiphase flow in porous media
* Phase equilibrium thermodynamics
* Poroelasticity and geomechanics
Software Engineering
* Massively parallel computation
* Extreme portability - native GPU and CPU cluster support in a single codebase
* Well and surface network visualisation
* Unstructured grids
Are you the right person for the job?
* Bachelor’s degree or above in Mathematics, Physics, Computer Science, or related field
* Interest in numerical methods and computational physics
* Some experience writing code in C++ or a similar language
* Strong written and verbal communication skills; ability to work in a team with other developers/physicists as well as with client-facing colleagues
* Ability to work independently and take the initiative with the direction of new development
Our client is open to varying levels of experience, from fresh graduates to PhD holders and more experienced candidates. Salaries are competitive according to level of education and experience.
What will your role look like?
* Work on physics-based models including multiphase flow, thermodynamics, and geomechanics
* Write and maintain portable, efficient code for both GPU and CPU clusters
* Collaborate with team members across physics and software engineering
* Engage with clients to understand needs and explain technical solutions
What can you expect in return?
* Be at the cutting-edge of computational physics for real-world applications
* Hybrid working options
* Opportunity for career progress by taking on more responsibilities within the company and becoming more client-facing
