About Vorticity

As passionate scientists and engineers, we are well aware of the plethora of critical problems in the world that cannot be solved because humanity simply does not have enough computing power. To address this, Vorticity is developing a radically new silicon chip architecture and system to dramatically accelerate scientific computing problems.

Vorticity’s mission is to expand human ingenuity. To do that we are building a team of exceptional people to work together on big problems. Join us!

About the role

Skills: C++, Python

About The Role

The Vorticity software team is looking for highly capable software engineers with a passion for science and math to contribute to our software applications team. Candidates for this role need to demonstrate they can take a system level approach to internal software validation and enablement of external customers.

A successful candidate in this role will be an expert user of the software stack used to run Vorticity workloads. We are searching for someone who could unblock customers through customized solutions and driving engineering to implement the most impactful features. This involves bridging the gap between user requirements and matching to the existing software capabilities of the Vorticity software stack. The successful candidate will work closely with software engineering development teams on tools specification, documentation, and expert user guidance on the next-gen features of the software tool set.

Requirements

Bachelor’s or Master’s in computer or applied science.
Actively explore innovative and new methodologies to improve customer ease of use
Deep diving on critical tool issues seen by customers to identify workarounds and future enhancements
Drive engineering to implement most impactful features by providing expert user guidance and a customer-centric mindset
Drive technical specifications and architecture/design specs
Take part in early feature QA and provide constant feedback to engineering for software quality and usability
Be an expert user of the Vorticity software stack – the go-to person to guide and educate external (customers) and internal (engineering) individuals
Author high quality documentation for both internal engineers and external users of Vorticity solutions.
Experience with interfacing with customers to collect software requirements and enabling customers through workaround custom solutions
Must be an extremely capable communicator who can explain technical content to a wide range of external customers and internal engineers
Strong knowledge of scripting languages such as Python

Preferred Skills

Strong software testing experience
Demonstrated knowledge of UNIX/Linux environments
Knowledge of neural network architecture and ML/AI deep learning principles
Prior experience in designing and developing HW systems involving ASICs/FPGAs and/or GPUs.
Understanding of fundamental considerations of building hardware in development and volume production stages
Excellent working knowledge of HPC workloads and through direct experience running models on a CPU/GPU/FPGA or other accelerator.

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.
