Application Engineer (CFD) at Simerics (UK) Ltd.
Simerics Inc. is a global technology company that develops, markets, and supports Computer Aided Engineering (CAE) software for product design and development in automotive, hydraulics, oil and gas, marine, and aerospace industries. The Simerics team is comprised of scientists and engineers who have been among the pioneers in the development and application of multipurpose computational physics since the early 1980s. This knowledge and experience are combined with new advances in computational physics, computational geometry, and software engineering to provide our clients with the next generation of simulation tools.
Simerics offers two state-of-the-art general-purpose CFD tools: Simerics-MP and Simerics-MP+. Simerics-MP features a parallel solver that yields accurate and fast simulation for multi-purpose (MP) applications involving single-phase or multiphase flow, turbulence, cavitation/aeration, heat and mass transfer, particle and fluid-structure interaction. Simerics-MP+ includes all the capabilities of Simerics-MP with additional features such as streamlined setup procedures, automated mesh/re-mesh for key components, especially moving components.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
