Full Time | Eligible for Hybrid, Remote
Engineering simulation has never been faster or more capable — and yet the hardest design challenges still outpace what traditional solvers can deliver at speed. Physics AI doesn't replace that foundation. It extends it, giving engineering teams a new capability layer that opens up problems previously constrained by compute time, iteration cost, or workflow bottlenecks. Luminary AI is building that capability layer, and our platform is deployed at several of the most recognized names in aerospace, automotive, and defense industries. We're Series B and growing fast.
About the Role:
Solutions Engineers are the technical backbone of every Luminary AI opportunity. You'll lead pre-sales engagements from first discovery call through pilot, grounded in a specific physics discipline — electromagnetics, in this role — and bring that depth to Physics AI use cases across our customer base. The role is technically heavy: most of your week will be in demos, validation studies, and surrogate model evaluation, with the rest spent on the commercial motion — qualification, scoping, proposals, and executive storytelling.
Who we're looking for:
A PhD in Electrical, Mechanical Engineering, or related discipline, with demonstrated hands-on depth in high-frequency applications — antenna design, EMC/EMI, signal integrity, or radar cross-section — and/or low-frequency applications — electric machine and motor design, induction heating, or wireless power transfer. PhD preferred; MS considered with 5+ years of relevant industry experience. Fluency in commercial solvers — Ansys HFSS / Maxwell, CST Studio Suite, or similar — and the underlying numerical methods (full-wave FEM, MoM, or FDTD) is expected. Equally important is demonstrated pre-sales experience — you've run technical evaluations, built proof-of-concepts, and know how to scope and close a technical engagement.
Working knowledge of Physics AI and ML surrogates is preferred. Python for scripting and API workflows is expected.
Eligibility: This role is limited to U.S. Persons and is not eligible for visa sponsorship now or in the future.
Skills Required
- 3-5+ years of experience in solutions/application engineering, technical sales, or customer-facing roles
- Strong engineering background (Mechanical, Aerospace, or related field)
- Good understanding of machine learning applications in engineering or physics-informed AI models
- Comfortable with Python scripting and API integrations
- Excellent communicator who can engage both technical teams and executive stakeholders
What We Do
Luminary Cloud is an early-stage tech startup focused on innovations in high-performance computing for enterprise industrial R&D. The company is currently developing its initial product in stealth mode.
