Are you as inspired as we are by the combination of multiphysics simulation, product design, and programming? Do you want to work in a team of driven and talented colleagues? Would you like to develop functionality for products used worldwide by tens of thousands of engineers? If so, read on.
Who We Are
COMSOL is the leading innovator of multiphysics simulation software for research and product development. The COMSOL product suite enables our users to solve challenging science and engineering problems, thanks to our intuitive and flexible user interface. We create the tools that drive new breakthroughs in science and engineering, and we love what we do. Founded in Sweden in 1986, the COMSOL organization boasts 16 offices and a distributor network throughout the world with more than 500 employees.
What You'll Do
In our newly renovated Stockholm office, we develop the core functionality of our multiphysics product family, used worldwide in research and development (R&D) and computer-aided engineering (CAE). Our software enables users to solve complex science and engineering problems, thanks in part to our intuitive and flexible graphical user interface.
We are now seeking a talented and motivated software developer to expand the team developing our user interface, communication and data layers. We develop both the frameworks other developers use to quickly create and update functionality within their areas of expertise, as well as core functionality in the user interface. The team is also responsible for the Application Builder, a tool our customers use to create their own simulation applications. This includes both a GUI designer integrated in our desktop modeling environment, as well as a code editor with access to the powerful external COMSOL Java API. Within the team, we also develop the deployment products COMSOL Server and COMSOL Compiler, which our customers use to share their Application Builder-made applications, and the Model Manager functionality for managing simulation data.
All of our products are shipped as off-the-shelf software packages that our users install onsite and manage themselves. We typically release new major versions of our products on a yearly schedule.
As a new hire, you will:
- Work in a specific problem space, with the goal to gradually expand your knowledge within the many areas we're responsible for, with plenty of opportunities to learn and grow.
- Take on an integral role in the full life-cycle of your code, from design to development, testing, feedback, improvement, and maintenance.
- Help solve real problems for engineers worldwide.
Your day-to-day work typically involves writing code, reviewing other team members’ code, being involved in specification- and design work, testing and giving feedback on the team’s projects, and otherwise contributing to the overall health of the codebase. Most development is done in Java, but we also use C#.
What We're Looking For
You are passionate about problem-solving and not afraid to dig into existing code and make it your own. You are open-minded, value teamwork, and understand the importance of putting users center stage. You also care about code quality and understand the need for comprehensive test coverage, sense of code ownership, modularity, adequate performance-tuning, and good documentation. Beyond that, we are looking for someone with the following background:
- M.Sc. or equivalent degree in engineering, computer science, mathematics or physics, or work experience in relevant programming positions
- Excellent programming skills with proficiency in at least one object-oriented programming language, for example Java, C#, or Python.
- Strong written and verbal communication skills.
- Must be eligible to work in Sweden, but Swedish is not a requirement as long as you have good English skills.
Knowledge of physics or simulation is not a requirement, but interest in these areas will help to better understand our product and market.
What We Offer
At COMSOL, you will quickly play a key role within your development projects, where you will have many opportunities to suggest ideas and improvements. As the company is growing continuously, we strive toward making you an expert within your development area within a few years. Along the way, you will be supported by experienced colleagues in a collaborative working environment. In addition to an exciting career working on a sophisticated software product, we also offer a competitive salary, individual pension plans, and sponsored gym membership. We respect your leisure time and need for a work-life balance. We expect you to be onsite during the initial onboarding period. After that, we apply a hybrid approach that enables you to work from home a few days a week on average.
Our corporate culture is innovative, vibrant, and cutting-edge. We are committed to encouraging creativity through an exciting and challenging environment in which individuals excel and grow. We believe that our talented employees and an active learning environment are the keys to our success.
