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
