Help finding job for Computational Physics PHD Candidate

[amirm]

Hello everyone.

My son's best friend lives in Scotland, finishing his PhD specializing in the combination of physics, mathematics and computing. He is looking for a job post graduation and is open to working elsewhere. Here is his background:

Timofey Kozhukhov

PhD student at the University of Edinburgh, working with Dr. Tyler Shendruk. Interested in physics simulation, active matter, 3D modelling & graphics, and virtual reality.

I have met him and am quite impressed with his technical abilities. He is also very sociable and smart.

I would imagine his experience is in demand in different areas as it is so hard to find people with this combination of disciplines. I appreciate it if you know of any academic or industry job openings applicable to his background. Feel free to start a conversation with me if you have any leads and I will pass it on to him.

Thanks a lot.

Either.

Either.

A few suggestions. If he’s a US citizen, defense contractors or DOD Labs or where I work, MIT Lincoln Laboratory.
JHU Applied Physics Lab is another option similar to these.

Other options are DOE labs.

Another prime pathway for computational physicists is to do risk analysis for financial firms, insurance firms or global advisors.

Have some contacts at NASA Glenn and energy-related contractors for them. PM if interested.

I work for ASML in the Netherlands. (Chip production equipment.) ASML has always options for (is in need of) people with a physics background. Take a look at careers at ASML.
