Research Associate: Computational Analysis of Hypersonic Systems

The Center for National Security Initiatives at CU ¶¶Òõ´«Ã½ÔÚÏß is encouraging applications for a research associate in Computational Analysis of Hypersonic Systems, who will support the growth of the campus's National Security research enterprise. This position will report to leadership within the Center for National Security Initiatives (NSI), within the Research & Innovation Office (RIO). You will be responsible for developing groundbreaking research associated with the National Security enterprise, identifying new sponsored research opportunities with Department of Defense (DoD) and Intelligence Community (IC) partners, and preparing and executing strategic proposals in collaboration with other CU ¶¶Òõ´«Ã½ÔÚÏß faculty and NSI researchers. Candidates will be focused on strategic development of a nationally recognized research program, with an emphasis on applied research in the National Security space.

Computational Analysis of Hypersonic Systems: Requires expertise in the development and application of computational tools for analysis of various aspects of hypersonic vehicle system performance and phenomena including aerothermodynamics, plasma, radiation, materials, structures, propulsion, and mission analysis. The successful candidate will work as part of a multi-disciplinary team on a variety of projects related to national security and be proficient in the development of simulation capabilities within the context of a software best practices environment (e.g., version control, build systems, continuous integration and deployment, computational environment management, etc.).Ìý Experience in developing software for GPU architectures and/or working with AI/ML methods for physics modeling is desired but not required.
