What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive in the Numerical Simulation position, and why are they important?

To thrive in a Numerical Simulation role, you need a strong background in mathematics, physics, and computer science, often supported by a relevant degree such as engineering or applied mathematics. Proficiency with simulation software (like ANSYS, MATLAB, or COMSOL), programming languages (such as Python, C++, or Fortran), and familiarity with modeling standards and high-performance computing is typically required. Critical thinking, attention to detail, and effective communication are crucial soft skills for clearly interpreting results and collaborating with multidisciplinary teams. These competencies are vital for producing accurate, actionable simulation outcomes that drive real-world engineering and scientific solutions.

What is a Numerical Simulation job?

A Numerical Simulation job involves using computer-based models to simulate physical, chemical, or engineering processes. Professionals in this field apply mathematical techniques and computational tools to analyze complex systems, optimize designs, and predict real-world behavior. They work in industries such as aerospace, automotive, energy, and biomedical engineering. Strong programming, mathematical modeling, and problem-solving skills are essential for this role.

What are some typical projects or daily tasks for professionals in Numerical Simulation roles?

Professionals working in Numerical Simulation roles often spend their days developing and running computer models to predict physical phenomena, such as fluid dynamics, heat transfer, or structural behavior. Their tasks may include setting up simulation parameters, validating models with experimental data, analyzing simulation results, and preparing technical reports for stakeholders. Collaboration with engineers, scientists, or product development teams is common to ensure simulations address real-world issues and meet project goals. On a weekly basis, you may also be involved in refining existing models, troubleshooting computational issues, and keeping up with the latest simulation techniques and best practices.

Backend Software Engineer - Simulations

Rune Technologies

Seattle, WA • On-site

Full-time

Posted 20 days ago

Job description

Job Summary:
Rune Technologies builds mission-critical software for military logistics and sustainment. As a Backend Software Engineer at Rune, you will be part of a high-impact team working on advanced logistics algorithms and AI-enabled software, focusing on building production-grade simulation and forecasting software for logistics outcomes.
Responsibilities:
• Build and own production-grade simulation and forecasting software, with a primary focus on Rune's logistics forecaster.
• Work with mathematical models, numerical methods, and scientific formulas to implement software where correctness is defined by the underlying physics or math, not just user acceptance.
• Collaborate closely with the forecaster lead and platform team to integrate simulation capabilities into TyrOS workflows.
• Participate in technical design discussions and code reviews, contributing to a culture of engineering rigor and mission focus.
• Triage and debug issues in production, ensuring reliability and rapid iteration in support of operational needs.
• Work closely with engineers, product managers, and military stakeholders to ensure simulation and forecasting systems meet real-world sustainment requirements.
Qualifications:
Required:
• 4+ years of experience in software engineering, with demonstrated experience building software in a scientific or mathematically complex domain: sensor algorithms, motion planning, simulation, forecasting, or similar.
• Ability to work with mathematical models and numerical methods in code; comfort reasoning about correctness in terms of physics or math, not just software behavior.
• Proficiency in Python, C++, or Go.
• Strong software engineering foundation - this role requires production-quality engineering, not analysis or research.
• Math or science background, through degree, graduate work, or professional domain experience.
• Strong sense of ownership and a bias for action.
Preferred:
• Experience at a defense-adjacent autonomous systems company in a hands-on engineering capacity
• Degree or graduate degree in a scientific field such as physics, applied mathematics, aerospace, or mechanical engineering.
• Familiarity with numerical simulation frameworks or scientific computing libraries.
• Experience deploying software to production environments, including cloud (AWS, Kubernetes) and edge infrastructure.
Company:
Rune Technologies develops AI-enabled predictive logistics solutions for military operations. Founded in 2024, the company is headquartered in Arlington, USA, with a team of 51-200 employees. The company is currently Growth Stage.
