Computational Geoscientist Intern

Eden is pioneering sustainable natural resource recovery by using electricity to enhance subsurface permeability. Our Electrical Reservoir Stimulation technology offers a precise, water-efficient alternative to traditional hydraulic fracturing, reducing environmental risks while maximizing resource extraction.

Backed by leading public and private institutions, we have raised ~$24M, including $14M in dilutive capital from industry leaders like Anglo American and Helmerich & Payne, along with climate-focused investors like Grantham Foundation. An additional $10M in non-dilutive funding has been secured, primarily through four DOE ARPA-E grants supporting our R&D in frontier industries.

Headquartered in Somerville, MA, with an office in Houston, TX, Eden's team of 20 experts specializes in geophysics, geochemistry, high-voltage engineering, and subsurface tool design. We are actively demonstrating our next-generation permeability enhancement technology across diverse geologies worldwide, collaborating with industry leaders in geothermal energy, geologic hydrogen, carbon storage, and mining to redefine resource recovery for a carbon-neutral future.

Looking ahead, we are preparing for surface and subsurface field tests in early-to-mid 2025, supported by our supportive technical partners.

We are seeking a highly motivated and skilled individual for a three-month summer internship position in computational modeling of subsurface processes. The successful candidate will join our team to work on projects that integrate numerical methods, flow, heat and reactive transport in porous media, and geomechanics. This is an excellent opportunity for someone looking to apply their academic knowledge in a practical, industry-focused environment.

• Develop and implement numerical models using finite element and finite volume methods.
• Formulate problems related to heat transfer, multiphase flow, geomechanics, and reactive transport in porous media.
• Code and debug in C/C++ and Python environments.
• Assist in the analysis of experimental data and model validation.
• Collaborate with the numerical team members and other teams on various projects.

Requirements

• Currently enrolled in or recently graduated from a Master's or Ph.D. program in Computational Science, Engineering, Physics, or a related field.
• Strong background in numerical methods, especially finite element analysis.
• Good understanding of flow and heat transfer in porous media, and geomechanics.
• Proficiency in coding with C/C++ and Python.
• Excellent problem-solving and analytical skills.
• Ability to work collaboratively in a team environment.
• Eligible to work in the US without immediate sponsorship.

Benefits

• Paid accrued time off.
