Applications Engineer: Low Frequency Electromagnetics

Primary Responsibilities

• Demonstrate the building of clear and understandable simulation examples for prospective customers on simulations of their applications, primarily in the field of low frequency electromagnetics.
• Support prospective customers on the modeling of their applications with COMSOL Multiphysics®.
• Demonstrate use of the COMSOL® software and summarize its features in web-based workshops and other marketing and sales events, along with customer meetings.
• A willingness and ability to travel for limited periods of time to current and potential customers in order to run COMSOL-sponsored events and activities in North America.
• Support customers on use of the COMSOL® software for their low frequency electromagnetic applications, along with a variety of multiphysics applications involving other engineering disciplines.
• Initiate and participate in subsequent sales opportunities to existing customers or the colleagues and other departments of existing customers.
• Develop your technical and simulation knowledge and abilities through working with sales and support cases both independently and in cooperation with other sales and applications engineers.
• Run introductory training courses along with electromagnetic-specific courses.
• Develop and mentor new applications engineers, technical account managers, and sales engineers on the COMSOL® software and its uses in certain application areas.

Minimum Qualifications

• A master’s degree in engineering, physics, applied mathematics, or a physical science with six months or more experience in modeling low frequency electromagnetic applications based on numerical methods, such as the finite element method or similar.
• Excellent communication skills on the phone, in person, and in writing.
• Current eligibility to work in the U.S.

Preferred Qualifications

• A PhD degree (or master’s and equivalent experience) in electrical or mechanical engineering, physics, applied mathematics, or a physical science with six months or more experience in modeling based on numerical methods, such as FEM, FDTD, MoM or similar, that has been gained as part of project work at a commercial company, government research facility, or university.
• Strong background in computational electromagnetics, Maxwell’s equations and numerical methods with demonstrated modeling experience in one or more of the following applications: transformers, electric motors, generators, coils, capacitive, resistive or inductive systems, permanent magnets/electromagnets etc.
