Website Synopsys (Ansys)
At Ansys, Part of Synopsys, we’re the global leader in engineering simulation software. This role is open as a hybrid position in Canonsburg, PA, Evanston, IL, or Lebanon, NH.
You are a passionate and analytical R&D engineer who thrives at the intersection of AI/ML and 3D discrete geometry processing. With a strong foundation in engineering, computer graphics, computational geometry, or mathematics, you are ready to tackle complex problems in simulation model creation and discretization. One focus area is HPC and developing and implementing algorithms on clusters of GPUs, with special interest in surface reconstruction, geometry simplification, and Delaunay meshing. Another area is the use of LLM and LVM/VLM to create simulation models starting from CAD and other data defining analysis intent.
What You’ll Be Doing
- Researching, designing, and implementing algorithms for 3D geometry processing and mesh generation incorporating AI/ML to increase automation and robustness.
- Developing innovative solutions for surface reconstruction, Delaunay meshing, feature classification, shape analysis, and model simplification using state-of-the-art techniques.
- Collaborating closely with the meshing software development team to plan, create, and evolve simulation software capabilities.
- Writing efficient, maintainable code in Python and C/C++ for production-grade simulation tools.
- Analyzing simulation models and discretization workflows to identify opportunities for automation and simplification.
What You’ll Need
- BS in Engineering, Computer Graphics, Computational Geometry, Mathematics, or related field with 5+ years’ experience, MS with 3+ years, or PhD with 1+ year. PhD with Postdoctoral experience preferred.
- Expertise in AI/ML applications for 3D geometry processing.
- Proficient software development skills, especially with Python and C/C++.
- Solid understanding of geometry processing, mesh generation, and numerical methods.
Base Salary Range: $120,000 – $180,000.
