About Godela & the Physics Foundation Model
At Godela, we're building the first Physics Foundation Model; an AI system that learns from simulation, experiment, and equations to instantly predict and simulate physical behavior.
Our mission is to give every engineer an R&D lab at their fingertips, cutting months of simulation and experimentation into minutes. We are looking for people who get excited about pushing the limits of science and engineering, and who want to create models that open up completely new ways to discover, design, and build.
We are seeking a Founding ML Engineer to help us build and scale the world’s first Physics Foundation Model. This role will focus on developing and productionizing large-scale, physics-informed ML systems.
Responsibilities
- Developing scalable approaches to train high-accuracy, large-scale physics-informed models.
- Designing and testing new architectures for multi-physics and multi-scale modeling.
- Optimizing training efficiency through distributed computing, GPU optimization, and performance tuning.
