Let me tell you about the role:

You will be part of the India branch of a global computational science and engineering team.

The broader team forms bp's center of excellence (CoE) for advanced scientific, computational modelling capabilities - computational fluid dynamics (CFD), finite-element structural analysis (FEA), and general multi-physics modelling - supporting all our current and evolving low-carbon businesses. This CoE combines its deep subject-matter expertise with industry-leading high-performance computing and other digital technologies in solving some of the most challenging problems related to developing safe, reliable and efficient energy systems.

What you will deliver:

  • You will independently carry out multiple projects at a time that require computational modelling in support of our businesses involved in producing oil, gas and refined fuels. You will deliver these projects on time, meeting or exceeding the expectations of our internal customers.

  • You will interact closely with other members of the modelling team, in carrying out your projects or supporting broader efforts in business support or capability development.

  • You will stay abreast of recent developments in the field, and creatively implement them in boosting our capability.

  • You will proactively and enthusiastically learn the technical and engineering details of our processes, and creatively find opportunities for innovation and technology development.

  • You will stay close to targeted academic programs and relevant conferences, seek opportunities for collaboration and publications/presentations.

Experience / Capabilities:

  • Master's degree or equivalent experience at minimum (STEM based), PhD in Engineering preferred, and 5+ years of industrial experience.

  • Proven expertise in the following areas: computational modelling of scientific problems - especially computational fluid dynamics (CFD). Use of CAD tools and computational mesh generation techniques. Multi-phase flows, heat & mass transport. Commercial and/or open-source CFD codes. Linux operating systems, C/C++, Python.

  • Excellent communication skills and adept at interacting with domain experts from different business units.

  • A strong fundamental understanding of CFD, especially turbulence and multiphase flows, and significant experience in applying this understanding to industrial problems, preferably relevant to Oil & Gas, Refining, and Renewables industries.

  • An entrepreneurial mentality capable of identifying opportunities and uses technical capability to generate potential value to bp. Uses agile practices and mindset to progress high priority activities at pace. Applies technical skills to create innovative, step-change methodologies to keep bp on the forefront of multi-physics modelling.
