CFD Engineer – RWDI Labs

United Kingdom, Remote

Step into the engine room of innovation.

RWDI Labs is the R&D hub inside RWDI—the global force behind climate driven engineering for the world’s boldest buildings, industrial complexes, and infrastructure. We’re the team that dreams 5 years out, prototypes at breakneck speed, and turns moonshot R&D into everyday consulting tools. If pushing computational limits and fusing ML with fluid dynamics sounds like your idea of fun, read on.

Why RWDI Labs?

Pure R&D DNA– We chart the tech roadmap that powers RWDI’s consulting edge and spin new ideas into venture backed startups.

Iconic Impact– Our algorithms shape supertall towers, gigafactories, NextGen wind farms, and entire smart city districts.

Values That Stick– Innovation, integrity, integration. They’re not posters on a wall—they’re how we decide, build, and ship.

The Mission

As our next CFD/ML Engineer, you’ll turbocharge RWDI’s simulation stack—melding high-fidelity CFD with machine learning accelerators that slash runtimes and unlock design insights no human could crunch alone.

What you’ll do

• Reinvent how CFD is used: Refine, benchmark, and deploy state-of-the-art solvers for complex fluid and thermodynamics problems across a variety of wind engineering service lines, and more.
• Code the Future: Design everything from ML models to hybridized CDF/AI approaches, and then prove they beat the status quo!
• Productize Breakthroughs: Partner with consulting engineers to embed your models into their daily workflow and validate against wind tunnel or field data.
• Collaborate Fearlessly: Pair with data scientists, software developers, and domain experts to turn raw research into deployable software and, occasionally, spinout companies.
• Mentor & Evangelize: Be the goto voice on CFD + ML best practices across RWDI and in the wider industry community.
  
  
  

What you bring

• 5+ years hands-on CFD(steady state & transient) in industry or consulting; opensource fluency (e.g. OpenFOAM) preferred.
• Proven ML chops—from physics informed NNs to Gaussian process emulators—applied to simulation workflows.
• HPC wizardry on Linux clusters; scripting in Python plus a taste for C++ or similar.
• Stellar communicator and natural collaborator.
  
  
  

Extra credit

• Deep understanding of atmospheric boundary layers or wind engineering projects.
• Track record of shipping opensource contributions.
  
  
  

The Person We’re After

• Obsessed with learning the newest climate engineering tricks.
• Thrives in high-velocity environments and ships “version 1” fast.
• Energized by zero-to-one business building.
• Loves difficult, open ended, and undefined problems—and teammates who feel the same.
• Surfs change like a pro.
