CFD Product Manager

Dassault Systèmes is seeking a technically oriented CFD Product Manager to contribute to the evolution of simulation products at the intersection of Computational Fluid Dynamics and AI/ML. This role supports the development of next-generation capabilities that enhance engineering workflows through data-driven modeling and automation.

Responsibilities

• Support the development and refinement of product direction for AI/ML-enabled CFD solutions
• Identify and evaluate relevant use cases across aerodynamics, propulsion, thermal systems, and industrial flows
• Contribute to market and technology analysis related to simulation and machine learning
• Translate product strategy into well-defined requirements, user stories, and prioritized features
• Collaborate with development teams to deliver capabilities across simulation platforms, ML pipelines, and intelligent agents for workflow automation
• Balance enhancements to core simulation technologies (solvers, meshing, HPC/cloud) with AI/ML innovation (AI copilots, design agents)
• Work with technical teams to develop AI agents that can autonomously set up, run, analyze, and optimize CFD simulations
• Contribute to defining workflows where LLMs + physics models collaborate to accelerate engineering decisions
• Champion reduced-order models and ML-based surrogates to enable near real-time predictions
• Ensure seamless integration between high-fidelity CFD and fast, deployable ML models
• Partner with CFD engineers, data scientists, and software teams to ensure alignment on requirements and priorities
• Engage with internal stakeholders and customers to gather feedback and validate product direction
• Bridge deep technical domains with user-centric product thinking
• Test functionality as it’s developed
• Build compelling demos and use cases showing measurable gains (speed, cost, performance)
• Tell a clear story: from days/weeks of simulation → seconds/minutes of insight

Skills

• Master's Degree (2-5 years experience) or PhD degree (0-2 years experience) in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field
• Experience in product management, engineering, or a related technical role
• Strong background in CFD (industry experience or advanced degree)
• Experience with Navier-Stokes algorithms, RANS turbulence models, and body fitted meshing
• Experience in CFD Verification and Validation processes
• Understanding of CFD user landscape, ranging from designers to analysts
• Solid understanding of machine learning / AI, especially: Surrogate modeling, reduced-order modeling, Optimization, design space exploration
• Familiarity with LLMs and emerging agentic frameworks is a big plus
• Ability to translate complex technical concepts into clear product direction
• Strong collaboration and communication skills in cross-functional environments
• Curiosity, creativity, and a bias toward action
• Experience applying AI/ML to physics-based simulations
• Exposure to industries like automotive, aerospace, or heavy equipment
• Familiarity with cloud/HPC simulation environments
• Passion for building tools engineers actually love to use
