Senior CFD Engineer (General Fluids)

As a Senior CFD Engineer, you will play a critical role in transforming how we validate fluid performance across our product portfolio—digitally. Your expertise in water flow, pressure systems, and leakage analysis will help us replace physical testing with predictive simulations, accelerating product development and improving design quality. You’ll work closely with product engineers, lab technicians, and data scientists to simulate and correlate fluid behavior in faucets, seals, and valves. Your work will directly support the launch of innovative products while contributing to our goal of reducing physical testing by 80% and improving validation lead time by 50%.

• Own the fluid simulation domain, developing reusable CFD templates and playbooks for water-based systems.

• Simulate internal flows, pressure drops, and leak paths in faucets, valves, seals, and polymer components.

• Correlate virtual results with physical tests, achieving high accuracy in flow rate, pressure, and leakage metrics.

• Calibrate fluid models using lab data and integrate material properties for metals, polymers, and composites.

• Automate CFD workflows using Python and Fluent, enabling scalable meshing, parametric sweeps, and post-processing.

• Integrate AI/ML techniques to:

1. Build surrogate models for rapid design screening.
2. Apply active learning to reduce the number of physical tests.
3. Support uncertainty quantification and sensitivity analysis.

• Collaborate with lab technicians to ensure high-quality instrumentation and data acquisition for model validation.

• Contribute to simulation governance, including credibility reports, correlation matrices, and KPI dashboards.

• Mentor junior engineers and promote best practices in fluid simulation and digital validation.

• Bring a creative, curious, and collaborative mindset to a fast-paced, innovation-driven environment.
