About the job

Job Title –  Optimization Engineer Preferred Location - Hyderabad, India Full time/Part Time - Full Time

Build a career with confidence Carrier Global Corporation, global leader in intelligent climate and energy solutions is committed to creating solutions that matter for people and our planet for generations to come. From the beginning, we've led in inventing new technologies and entirely new industries. Today, we continue to lead because we have a world-class, diverse workforce that puts the customer at the center of everything we do.

Summary:

The candidate will provide technical leadership in the area of numerical optimization of thermo-fluid systems which are core to the Carrier business – including design and deployment of product design methods, sales tools, and on-line supervisory controls

Key Responsibilities:

- Deployment. Ensure that methods and tools developed in the group impact the Carrier business through engagement in global product projects, including capture and formulation of computational problems arising in such projects that relate to “supervisory” control formulations, trade studies and implementation. Use control theoretic tools for robustness and stability guarantees in addition to performance optimality.

- Methods, tools and algorithms. Ensure that appropriate computational methods, tools and algorithms for designing dynamic, optimal supervisory control are based on sound mathematical foundations and are deployed to match the needs of the Carrier business.

- Modeling for dynamic supervisory control based on optimization formulations. Support development of mathematical models for thermo-fluid systems are built based on principles and best practices that secure reliable application of numerical optimization algorithms for control applications.

- Talent. Support development and training of staff within Carrier product teams and within the Computational Engineering group; contribute to talent pipeline by supervising student internships and these

- Proven ability to capture engineering design and operation problems as mathematical programming problems (NLPs and MILPs), including attention to reliable convergence of such problems.

- In-depth knowledge and experience with the mathematical theory (applied mathematics, numerical analysis and functional analysis), algorithmic foundations (notably existence and convergence proofs), and methods/tools for numerical optimization (SQP, interior point method, etc.) of large-scale systems.

- Demonstrated experience in creating, importing, and simulating Functional Mockup Units (FMUs) following FMI 2.0/3.0 standards for 1D Co-Simulation and Model Exchange

- Experience from using common algorithms/solvers for large-scale gradient-based non-linear programs, e.g., IPOPT, CONOPT, KNITRO, and WORHP, including their respective applicability to different types of problems. Knowledge about discrete optimization formulations, methods, and algorithms is a merit.

- Expertise and experience with physics-based modeling principles and best practices of thermo-fluid systems, such as vapor compression cycles or power plants.

- Familiarity and experience with development of computational platforms and tools in Python or equivalent.

- Familiarity with design on-line closed loop supervisory controllers (e.g., MPC/NMPC), including stability and robustness analysis and deployment to relevant industrial processes.

- Familiarity with using HPC and cloud-based platforms for computation at scale.

- Demonstrated ability to lead and work as part of a multidisciplinary team and an entrepreneurial attitude towards technological innovation in a global environment.

- Self-starter who is well-organized in an international team environment, and has excellent interpersonal, leadership and communication skills

Requirements:

Prefer degree in an Engineering discipline (e.g., applied mathematics, controls, mechanical or chemical engineering) PhD is preferred

Benefits:

- We are committed to offering competitive benefits programs for all of our employees, and enhancing our programs when necessary.

- Have peace of mind and body with our health insurance

- Make yourself a priority with flexible schedules and leave Policy

- Drive forward your career through professional development opportunities Achieve your personal goals with our Employee Assistance Program.
