    In this role, you will develop data-driven models to replace costly physics-based simulations for aneurysm treatments and integrate them into a clinical decision-support system.

    Job Technologies

    Your role in the team

    • Develop data-driven surrogate models to replace computationally expensive physics-based simulations for aneurysm treatment, namely, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and finite element modeling (FEM), enabling rapid, on-demand simulation of patient-specific treatment scenarios.
    • Design and implement machine learning (ML) pipelines using full-fidelity CFD and FEM data, ensuring models generalize across patient geometries and device configurations.
    • Integrate trained surrogate models into the broader in silico trial framework and evaluate their accuracy, robustness, and computational efficiency against full-fidelity simulations.
    • Explore AI-based methods for treatment outcome prediction and device optimization, contributing to the framework's clinical decision-support capabilities.
    • Collaborate closely with clinicians, scientists, and engineers to develop and validate cutting-edge simulation techniques.
    • Lead and co-author scientific publications, and represent the project at international conferences.

    Our expectations of you

    Qualifications

    • PhD in Computer Science, Applied Mathematics, Physics, Engineering, or a related field with a strong computational focus.
    • Proficiency in Python and relevant ML frameworks (e.g., PyTorch, TensorFlow, JAX) is essential.
    • Familiarity with CFD, FEM, or other numerical simulation methods is a significant advantage.

    Experience

    • Strong practical experience in machine learning for scientific applications - including surrogate modeling, reduced-order models (ROM), or physics-informed machine learning (PIML/PINNs) - is the core technical foundation of the role.
    • Experience with high-performance computing (HPC) environments is beneficial.
