Research Scientist (Electromagnetic Inverse Design)

Flexcompute is seeking a research scientist to be a key driver of the development and adoption of adjoint-based inverse design using the Tidy3D electromagnetic solver. The candidate will work on various projects spanning from algorithm design, software development, and targeting the practical application and adoption of our inverse design platform. This candidate will work in a tight knit team and will be instrumental in our push to make Tidy3D the go-to tool for inverse design in electromagnetics.

Key responsibilities include:

• Support development of new features and performance improvements within Tidy3D’s differentiable simulation framework, including new physics and new optimization algorithms.
• Assist in design and implementation of APIs to make inverse design simple and easy to use.
• Apply inverse design to practical problems in industry and academic collaborations, craft documentation examples, and understand real world impact and use...
