Siemens Digital Industry Software - #TransformTheEveryday
Siemens Digital Industries Software's Simulation unit delivers a powerful and comprehensive portfolio of engineering simulation tools under the Simcenter brand. Our solutions span the full spectrum of simulation technologies—from 1D system simulation to advanced 3D computational fluid dynamics (CFD), finite element analysis (FEA), electromagnetics, biomedical simulations, and beyond. These tools empower engineers across industries to design, predict, and optimize performance in the digital world before building in the physical one.
Within the Simulation unit, the Technology Applications team plays a strategic role as expert users of the Simcenter portfolio. We leverage our deep technical knowledge and hands-on experience to influence product development, guide strategic decisions, and support the implementation of new capabilities across our software suite. Our work ensures that Simcenter continues to meet the evolving needs of engineers and innovators worldwide.
This internship will focus specifically on our 1D Systems simulation software offering - Simcenter Amesim. The successful candidate will contribute to testing and improving physics-based modelling in areas such as Aerodynamics & Transport Phenomena, Electrochemistry applications (e.g., battery cell design), and support initiatives related to software performance and our cloud-based simulation offering.
