About The Role

As a core software developer, you will directly impact how scientific computing applications are executed on CPUs, GPUs to our own hardware. In this position, you will develop software for compilation, optimization, execution, acceleration, debugging, profiling, and/or integration of scientific computing applications.

Responsibilities

  • Develop software in C++, CUDA or Python to optimize, compile, and/or execute scientific computing applications and numerical solutions to complex partial differential equations.
  • Measure, analyze, debug, and improve the software stack that supports these models
  • Integrate and deploy successful improvements into production software releases and to customers

Requirements

  • Strong proficiency in C/C++, CUDA and Python
  • Ability to operate at multiple levels of abstraction in a complex software system
  • Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Computer Science, Mathematics, Physics or related educational background. * Positions are available at all levels of seniority

Preferred Skills

  • Familiarity with scientific computing methods (e.g. Finite difference, Monte Carlo, FFT)
  • Strong knowledge of computer science fundamentals
Technology

Our fully integrated system is built from the ground up for scientific computing. We are innovating at every level - from silicon design, to memory, power delivery, cooling to new algorithms and system architectures to solve a myriad of scientific problems. Problems we currently solve include but are not limited to: Small molecule drug discovery for critically ill oncology patients, discovering ideal locations to store CO2 after capture to stave off climate change and designing the next generation hypersonic aircraft.
