RESUME AND JOB
Northrop Grumman
This candidate will use and develop algorithms, codes, and analytical tools to numerically solve complex mathematical models of physical phenomena related to superconductivity while interacting with experimental colleagues to solve complex problems. Incorporate input from the scientific computing team on code development, testing, and validation of simulation tools, as well as creation of model pipelines or workflows. Communicate iteratively and regularly with the simulation team, physicists, engineers, and organizational leadership to determine development requirements and report on progress. Develop physics-based mathematical models and/or improve upon existing models for the accurate description of superconductivity, electromagnetism, and quantum-mechanical systems. Document methods and results in technical papers and presentations; document code for users and other developers. The ideal candidate has knowledge of state-of-the-art scientific computing methods, experience in joint experimental-theory collaborations, and experience with models of superconductivity. Strong candidates demonstrate scientific curiosity and are excited to participate in the evolution of new technologies and can effectively communicate their own knowledge to others. Innovative problem-solving skills. Motivation to learn new technologies and technical skills necessary to advance them. Ability to collaborate in a small group setting as well as work independently. Interdisciplinary communication skills. Bachelor's degree in Science, Technology, Engineering, or Mathematics (STEM) with 5 years of relevant experience; Master's degree in STEM related field with 3 years' of relevant technical experience OR Masters' degree in STEM related field and currently enrolled in a PhD program with a completion date prior to start with 1 year of relevant technical experience OR PhD in STEM related field with 1 year of relevant technical experience.
