Job Description

Overview

Electric Boat is extensively using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analyses to solve complex thermal-fluid related problems being addressed by the U.S. Navy submarine community. These analyses are performed using both in-house hybrid and third party hybrid unstructured solvers, and are typified by large scale models. The geometrically detailed and highly resolved models require high-performance computing using massively parallel processing techniques. The applications are varied and include attached high Reynolds number submarine flows, turbo-machinery flows, thermal-fluid and multiphase flows. We are seeking a thermal analyst that will be responsible for performing all phases of heat transfer analyses. This includes geometry preparation, high-quality grid generation, analysis, post-processing, and reporting of results. Thermal analysts will perform analyses and collaborate with stakeholders to influence key aspects of the submarine design. Interfacing with the NAVY and other stakeholders is required.

Electric Boat offers Flexible Work Arrangements that allows some work to be performed remotely and at home. This varies from position to position based on the amount of classified material the department interacts with, as well as a few other variables. Please ask for more details on how it applies to this opening during discussions with the department.
