Job Description

Job title: Senior Math Libraries Engineer - Dense Linear Algebra. Location: Santa Clara, California, USA, with remote options in Washington, DC, New York, Washington State, California, and Massachusetts

Responsibilities:

• Design, implement, and optimize scalable, high-performance numerical dense linear algebra software for GPUs.

• Develop and optimize kernels for algorithms including triangular factorizations, eigenvalue decompositions, and singular value decompositions.

• Provide technical leadership and guidance to library engineers, QA engineers, and interns;

• Collaborate with product management and internal and external partners to understand feature and performance requirements and contribute to technical roadmaps.

• Identify opportunities to improve library quality, performance, and maintainability through architectural redesign and innovative software development practices.

Qualifications:

• PhD or MSc in Computational Science and Engineering, Computer Science, Applied Mathematics, or a related scientific or engineering field, or equivalent experience.

• At least 5 years of experience developing, debugging, and optimizing high-performance numerical linear algebra software using C++ and parallel programming.

• Experience with parallel programming technologies, ideally CUDA, MPI, OpenMP, OpenACC, or pthreads;

• Strong fundamentals in numerical methods, including computational linear algebra, linear system solvers, and eigenvalue, singular value, and other decomposition methods.

• Experience developing dense linear algebra libraries such as BLAS and LAPACK, and parallel counterparts such as PBLAS and ScaLAPACK.

• Strong collaboration, communication, and documentation skills.

Preferred:

• Knowledge of CPU and/or GPU hardware architecture.

• Experience with CI/CD systems and project management tools such as JIRA.

• Experience working in a globally distributed organization.

• Background in large-scale computing technologies, including PDE solvers, eigenvalue solvers, and time-domain simulation methods such as computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and finite element analysis (FEA).
