Do you share our passion for product development?

For our R&D department in Hillerød, we are looking for a talented simulation specialist with a strong knowledge of CFD and a "can do" attitude to join the mechanical team supporting FOSS Product Innovation. You will help us develop world leading instruments from concept until release to production and sales. Being first and best takes something extra. We work at a high speed with highly skilled and motivated colleagues on multidisciplinary projects. It is challenging and fun - and requires highly proficient people. Maybe that person, is you?

About the job

As a simulation specialist, you play a central role in the development process, and you will get unique opportunities to work with many different and challenging technologies. As a part of the Mechanical team, you are expected to work closely together with local colleagues in Hillerød and occasionally colleagues in Hungary.

The job involves working with your colleagues on the NPD projects by using your technical skills to help make crucial decisions and support the design of our instruments. Starting with the task scoping and solution potential, followed by execution and presentation of results, you will closely follow our projects and represent the Mechanical team when needed to ensure that the simulation results are utilized in the best possible way.

Working in the Mechanical team you will have many talented close colleagues with different skillsets. You will be the main responsible for fluid mechanics, solid mechanics and multiphysics simulations done at FOSS.
