Software Engineer

Overview

You will develop and enhance the core wildfire spread simulation engine using C++ and Python. In a cross-functional, climate-tech setting you will turn physics concepts into high-performance software and build data pipelines for experiments. This role directly supports improving wildfire prediction and climate resilience. You will work on scalable, scientific computing problems in a hybrid on-site role that blends research and engineering impact.
