About the company

Jacobs Facility Modeling & Analytics (FMA) Group is looking for a CFD Engineer with expertise in applying computational fluid dynamics (CFD) tools to thermal/airflow design and analysis of the built environment. The FMA Group consists of computer simulation specialists embedded within Jacobs’ engineering teams. Our Group has successfully delivered CFD Airflow Modeling consulting services for advanced and mission critical facilities for over 25 years.

Our airflow simulation specialists play a key role in satisfying clients’ demands for facilities having high performance and resilience. As a collaborator in this group, you will:

  • Work with internal and external clients to define modeling objectives, and the required scope to achieve objectives given project time and budget constraints.

  • Analyze complex data sets to understand the story behind the data.

  • Leverage data visualization and graphics processing tools to create stunning visual evidence of analysis findings.

  • Explain, present, and document that story in a concise, meaningful way in terms that may be understood by technical or non-technical stakeholders.

  • Follow and eventually help to improve upon FMA Group proprietary methods of technical report writing.

  • Support engineering teams need for rapid analysis of alternative design solutions, delivered with accuracy and high confidence.

  • Collaborate with other CFD analysts at delivering work on multiple fast-track projects simultaneously.

Our group aims to deliver work that reflects Jacobs mission statement to make the world smarter, more connected, and more sustainable. We strive to do this every day by infusing design projects with innovative solutions informed with advanced simulation tools. We are looking for someone eager to join our team and help us fiercely pursue that level of ownership.
