Senior Software Engineer, Modeling & Simulation
ZipRecruiter, Boston, Massachusetts, us, 02298
Job DescriptionJob Description
Help redefine how the DoD makes multi-billion-dollar force-design decisions. In this role, you'll fuse physics-driven simulation, interactive computing, and verified AI code- to create next- wargaming platforms. We’re seeking an experienced software developer who can own key parts of a larger extensible, cloud-distributed simulation environment, and inspire a small, high-conviction team by leading from the front.
What you’ll do
Design & implement
a scalable, interactive physics simulation that runs seamlessly in cloud and on-prem clusters.
Own core functionality
in modern C++ from multi-threaded performance tuning to continuous integration.
Collaborate with product & AI teams
to embed verified, AI-generated algorithms directly into a developer SDK for extending the platform.
Prototype quickly, iterate faster:
deliver usable capability to government end-users in weeks, not months.
Set the engineering bar —write clean code, document rigorously, and mentor teammates through code reviews and pair programming.
Why Code Metal?
Mission with impact:
your work shapes the digital battlefield models that influence real-world acquisition.
V elocity:
small teams, rapid iteration cycles, and the mandate to ship.
Ownership:
no passengers, everyone pushes code that hits production.
Requirements
Must-have credentials
Bachelor's degree (or equivalent experience) in applied math, scientific computing, physics, or a related field.
Proven expertise in
multi-threaded C++
for high-performance applications.
Hands-on experience with
large-scale, physics-based simulations.
Active
Secret clearance
or eligibility to obtain one.
Bonus points
Master’s (or equivalent experience) in applied math, scientific computing, physics, or similar.
GPU compute chops—OpenCL, CUDA, or both.
Prior work running physics simulations in
distributed cloud environments.
TS/SCI clearance.
Benefits
Health care plan with 100% premium coverage, including medical, dental, and vision.
401k with 5% matching.
Paid Time Off (Uncapped Vacation, plus Sick & Public Holidays).
Flexible hybrid work arrangement.
Relocation assistance for qualifying employees.
