About the Job

On behalf of our client, we are looking for a highly experienced Computational Physicist to join an advanced R&D environment focused on multiphysics simulations for next-generation energy and high-field systems.

This role offers a unique opportunity to work close to cutting-edge research and development, where advanced numerical methods and high-performance computing are used to model complex interactions between electromagnetic fields, charged particles, and fluids.

About the Role:

As a Computational Physicist, you will be part of a specialized simulation team working with advanced multiphysics models to study and predict complex physical systems involving plasma dynamics, electromagnetic fields, and coupled transport phenomena.

Your primary focus will be on developing, running, and analyzing large-scale simulations, as well as contributing to new modeling methods and analytical tools. You will collaborate closely with experimental teams, theoretical specialists, and software developers in a highly interdisciplinary environment.

Your Key Responsibilities:

Perform and analyze large-scale multiphysics simulations involving plasma, electromagnetic fields, and particle–field interactions.

Develop and improve analytical tools to interpret complex physical behavior from simulation data.

Contribute to theoretical model development and validation of simulation results.

Design and implement new numerical methods and simulation features.

Participate in scientific reporting and documentation of results.

Collaborate with multidisciplinary teams across physics, engineering, and software development.

Who You Are:

We are looking for a highly experienced researcher with deep expertise in computational plasma physics, electromagnetics, or related multiphysics domains. You enjoy working hands-on with simulation tools and numerical models and are comfortable bridging theory and implementation.

You are self-driven, collaborative, and motivated by solving complex physical problems in research-intensive environments.

We believe you have:

• A PhD (Doctor of Philosophy) in Physics, Applied Physics, Engineering Physics, or a closely related field.
• At least 5 years of practical research experience within plasma physics, electromagnetics, or multiphysics simulation after completing your PhD.
• Strong background in numerical methods for coupled physical systems.
• Proven experience with particle-based methods, field solvers, fluid models, or hybrid simulation approaches.
• Advanced programming skills in scientific computing environments.
• Experience handling and post-processing large-scale simulation datasets.

It is considered a plus if you also have:

• Experience with high-performance computing (HPC), parallel programming, and large-scale distributed simulations.
• Experience with GPU acceleration and performance optimization.
• Strong data analysis and statistical modeling skills.
• Experience with scientific software development best practices and DevOps-related tooling.
• Scientific publications within plasma physics, electromagnetics, or computational physics.

Application Process:

We are conducting ongoing recruitment, so please submit your application as soon as possible. Selection and interviews are conducted continuously.

What We Offer:

An opportunity to work in a highly advanced R&D environment focused on complex multiphysics challenges with real-world impact. You will be part of a specialized, collaborative team where your scientific expertise directly contributes to the development of future high-impact energy and technology solutions.

Diversity & Inclusion:

We encourage all qualified applicants regardless of gender, nationality, background or ethnicity to apply, as diversity and inclusion are core values for us and our client.
