What is a CAE?

CAE engineers, or Computer-Aided Engineering engineers, use computer software to simulate and analyze engineering designs. Their work helps predict how products will behave under various conditions, such as stress, heat, or vibration, before physical prototypes are built. CAE engineers play a crucial role in optimizing designs, reducing development costs, and speeding up the product development process across industries such as automotive, aerospace, and manufacturing.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a CAE?

To thrive as a Computer-Aided Engineer (CAE), you need strong analytical skills, a background in engineering (such as mechanical or aerospace), and proficiency in mathematics and physics. Familiarity with CAE software tools like ANSYS, Abaqus, or SolidWorks, as well as relevant certifications, are typically required. Attention to detail, problem-solving abilities, and effective communication are vital soft skills for interpreting results and collaborating with teams. These competencies ensure accurate simulations, efficient design optimization, and successful project outcomes in engineering environments.

What are common challenges faced by a CAE when collaborating with cross-functional teams?

As a CAE, one common challenge is effectively communicating complex simulation results and technical details to non-engineering stakeholders, such as project managers or product designers. It's essential to translate findings into actionable insights that align with business objectives. Additionally, balancing simulation accuracy with project timelines can be difficult, especially when multiple teams depend on your analyses to make design decisions. Building strong relationships and maintaining transparency with cross-functional colleagues can help streamline workflows and ensure project success.

Job description

The NVIDIA Industrial Engineering organization is a strong and visible team pushing the boundaries of accelerated computing in the CAE domain. We’re looking for a self-starter with a mixture of technical and soft skills to craft technical content to educate and excite developers on groundbreaking technologies in CAE solvers. You will develop content that inspires developers and engineers to adopt the NVIDIA platform through technical marketing assets and enables them through examples, documentation, and tutorials. You will also benchmark EDA workflows to demonstrate the value of the NVIDIA platform in this important industry.

Do you have the rare blend of both technical and communication skills? Are you passionate about groundbreaking technology? Do you love to make highly technical solutions simple and approachable? If so, we would love to learn more about you!

What You'll Be Doing:
  • Benchmarking: Maintain a suite of CAE solver benchmarking solvers and results across NVIDIA platforms. Build and complete performance studies that demonstrate the value of GPU acceleration for real-world simulation workloads, including scaling analysis, solver comparisons, and workflow profiling.
  • Building: Collaborate with internal engineering and marketing teams as well as external partners to build product-based how-to technical content — including benchmark methodology guides, performance reference architectures, and solution briefs.
  • Communicating: Deliver high-quality technical material to engineers, developers, and scientists through blogs, whitepapers, training materials, and conference presentations that highlight benchmark findings and platform capabilities.
  • Enabling: Build high-quality training materials and documentation to help researchers and developers get the most out of NVIDIA-accelerated CAE workflows.
What We Need To See:
  • Bachelor’s or equivalent experience in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field, with a minimum of 5 years of meaningful experience.
  • 3+ years of hands‑on familiarity with one or more CAE simulation tools such as STAR-CCM+, Fluent, FUN3D, OVERFLOW, LS‑DYNA, Abaqus, and HFSS.
  • Experience with Linux based HPC environments including job schedulers (e.g., Slurm, PBS, LSF) and MPI‑based workloads.
  • Passionate about communicating complex ideas in simple ways.
  • Strong understanding of how CPU/GPU utilization, memory, and interconnects impact parallel performance.
Ways to stand out from the crowd:
  • Master’s degree or higher from a leading university in an Engineering or Computer Science related field
  • Direct experience with multiple ISV applications across CAE and EDA domains
  • Strong interpersonal skills
  • Experience with containerized HPC environments

We are widely considered to be one of the technology world’s most desirable employers. We have some of the most dedicated people in the world working with us. If you are agile, creative, and self‑motivated, we want to hear from you.

Your base salary will be determined based on your location, experience, and the pay of employees in similar positions. The base salary range is 136,000 USD - 212,750 USD for Level 3, and 160,000 USD - 253,000 USD for Level 4.

You will also be eligible for equity and benefits.

Applications for this job will be accepted at least until August 3, 2026.

This posting is for an existing vacancy.
