Software Developer - Structural methods

We are looking for a forward-thinking Software Developer to join our advanced engineering team and lead the development of next-generation structural methods for FEM applications. This is a key position in a growing R&D team working at the intersection of computational design, simulation and digital manufacturing.

The ideal candidate will have a strong background in numerical methods, computational geometry and software development. You will work closely with structural engineers, CAE specialists, and manufacturing experts to create a software platform that drives innovation in lightweight, high-performance component design.

All applicants must be eligible to work in Spain.

• Design, develop and maintain software tools for next generation structural design.
• Implement algorithms for structural optimisation, shape generation, and lattice structures.
• Integrate FEA solvers, CAD/mesh tools, and manufacturing constraints into the next-gen design workflow.
• Collaborate with domain experts to translate physical and engineering requirements into robust computational solutions.
• Build intuitive user interfaces and/or scripting APIs for engineering users.
• Conduct performance profiling and ensure software reliability and scalability.
• Stay up to date with the latest research and best practices in optimisation, simulation and digital manufacturing.
• Write clean, well-documented code and contribute to version control and CI/CD pipelines.

• Degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Applied Mathematics or related field.
• Strong experience in software development using Python, C++, or similar languages.
• Experience with scientific computing libraries (NumPy, SciPy, Eigen, etc.) and optimisation frameworks.
• Knowledge of topology optimisation algorithms (SIMP, level-set, gradient-based methods, etc.).
• Familiarity with FEA solvers (e.g. Abaqus, Ansys, OpenFOAM, CalculiX) and mesh processing tools.
• Desirable: experience with 3D geometry, CAD kernels (OpenCASCADE, Parasolid), or GPU programming.
• Strong problem-solving skills, creativity, and attention to detail.
• Able to work independently and collaboratively in a multidisciplinary R&D environment.

• Competitive salary and benefits package based on experience.
• Long-term role with opportunities for technical and professional development.
• Involvement in exciting, high-performance programmes across multiple industries.
• Access to state-of-the-art tools and engineering facilities.
• Supportive and dynamic team culture, with strong emphasis on innovation and continuous improvement.
