AI/ML Engineer (Level based on experience)
Palo Alto, CA, United States
About The Role
At Cosmon, you’ll shape the future of computer-aided engineering by building AI that thinks like an engineer. As an AI/ML Engineer, you’ll design, train, and deploy models that accelerate simulation, improve accuracy, and unlock entirely new ways of exploring the design space. From adaptive solvers and reduced-order modeling to generative design and real-time validation, your work will push the boundaries of what CAE can achieve.
You’ll work alongside experts in engineering and applied AI to integrate machine learning directly into high-fidelity simulation pipelines — helping customers iterate faster, diagnose failures earlier, and bring better products to market.
This is a rare chance to join early and make a foundational impact at a company reimagining CAE for the AI era.
