Software Engineer for Wolfram SystemModeler

Do you have a passion for compiler technology, math, and mathematical modeling, and would like to exercise those skills while developing world-leading modeling and simulation software? In that case, look no further.

As a software engineer at Wolfram Mathcore, you will work mainly at our office in Linköping, Sweden, on the development of the SystemModeler kernel. The main function of the kernel is to translate models defined in the Modelica language into executable simulation code.

-About SystemModeler-

SystemModeler combines its powerful kernel with a highly reputed user interface and integrates with the Wolfram Language. This results in a fully integrated environment for analyzing, understanding, and quickly iterating system designs for industrial strength, multidomain models of your complete system.

-Function and responsibilities-

You will work in a team with responsibilities ranging from algorithm and user interface design to testing. As a kernel developer your main responsibility is maintaining existing code and implementing new features of the SystemModeler kernel. This involves the following tasks, with OCaml used as the main language for kernel development:
* Parsing and transforming representations of Modelica code
* Mathematical processing of equations
* Code generation of C/C++ simulation code
* Numerical runtime computations

-Skills and experience-

The candidate must meet the following qualifications:
* At least 3 years of experience in software development
* University-level degree in computer science or related engineering field
* Compiler programming experience
* Skills in one or more of these areas:
- Differential equations, especially differential-algebraic equations
- Numerical math (ODE/DAE solvers, nonlinear system solving)
- Graph theory
- Linear algebra
* Experience in modeling and simulation of dynamic systems, preferably with Modelica

Furthermore, the ideal candidate will have experience in:
* Functional programming languages such as OCaml, Haskell, F#, or Erlang
* C, C++ (Qt)
* Wolfram Language
* Windows
* Cloud technologies
* Scrum development
* CMake and Git

The ideal candidate will possess these personal qualities:
* Ability to work efficiently in a small team of engineers
* Ability to react quickly and adapt to changes in priorities, circumstances, and direction
* Ability to communicate effectively with others, in English, and preferably also Swedish, including proficiency in written and verbal communications, and strong listening skills
