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:

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:

• Build and maintain our scientific platforms, and integrate them with our high-performance computation backend 
• Understand user requirements to improve the platform experience, including scientific workflows
• Develop backend services to integrate data streams into our platform
• Maintain and optimize our platform deployment cluster

Requirements:

• Strong proficiency in Java Script, React, Python and Docker
• Experience with database design
• Experience with Kubernetes and AWS
• 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
• Experience working on large full-stack projects

Preferred Skills:

• Experience with Networking
• Experience with frontend design
• Experience with web visualization (i.e. D3.js)
• Experience with CI/CD

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.
