About the company

Our client is an engineering software company.

The role

Raydar is recruiting for this role on behalf of our client.

The role combines hands-on simulation expertise with close collaboration alongside sales, engineering and product teams during the sales cycle.

What you'll do

- Lead technical discovery sessions and define approaches for complex simulation problems.

- Run tailored technical demonstrations, workshops and proof-of-concept projects for customers.

- Work alongside sales leads and internal engineering, product and AI teams on technical engagements.

- Spot technical risks, integration needs and feature gaps, and help write proposals and scopes of work.

- Spend time on the road visiting client facilities to run hands-on sessions and technical reviews.

Requirements

What we're looking for

- Strong hands-on expertise in computational fluid dynamics, with a focus on CFD rather than structural analysis.

- Track record in client-facing technical positions, for example sales engineering or technical consulting.

- Five to fifteen years of experience at a senior or principal level.

- A degree at undergraduate, master's or doctoral level in mechanical, aerospace or another closely related engineering field.

- Hands-on proficiency in at least one CFD or CAE simulation tool, with experience running discovery, demos and proofs of concept.

- Solution-oriented mindset that focuses on practical fixes and on the technology itself.

Bonus points
