Role Summary: Join our research team to advance understanding of deformation mechanism in nickel-based superalloys. You’ll develop and apply mesoscale materials models and contribute code in C++ and Python to accelerate materials understanding for next-generation aerospace applications.

Key Responsibilities:

• Develop mesoscale materials models in C/C++/Python for deformation mechanisms in nickel-based superalloys
• Design and execute computational studies; interpret results and compare with literature/experimental data
• Document methods, produce reproducible results, and communicate findings to a cross-functional R&D team

Basic Qualifications:

• Current MS or PhD student or Postdoc in Materials Science, Computational Science, or related field
• Hands-on experience in computational materials science or materials modeling (mesoscale focus preferred)
• Strong coding skills in C++ and Python

Preferred Qualifications:

• Experience with dislocation dynamics, phase-field, crystal plasticity, or related mesoscale methods
• Familiarity with HPC workflows, version control (Git), and scientific Python stack (NumPy, SciPy, Matplotlib)
• Knowledge of nickel-based superalloys and deformation mechanisms

What You’ll Gain:

• Paid internship or post doc up to 9 months
• Exposure to GE Aerospace Research R&D practices
• Mentorship from domain experts and opportunities to publish/present where appropriate
