SUMMARY

The Meshing Development Unit (MDU) is seeking a R&D Engineer II for discrete geometry and mesh generation algorithm development. This role requires a strong interest in computational geometry, mesh generation, numerical mathematics and programming. The focus will be to develop high performance algorithms for discrete geometry processing and shape analysis on large and imperfect engineering models. This includes facetted booleans, surface reconstruction and volume extraction. The goal is to achieve high (real-time) performance and the (multi-)GPU is the primary target architecture. The background and interest of the successful applicant will be considered for work assignments. This developer can expect to be engaged in all stages of the development cycle from capability planning to research and software implementation.
