Job description

We are seeking a Software Engineer with experience developing and optimizing algorithm-driven software for both high-performance computing environments and real-time operational systems. This role focuses on translating advanced algorithm concepts into efficient, production-ready implementations that meet strict performance and reliability requirements. You will work in a collaborative, cross-functional environment alongside technical experts to support the development of complex systems that require scalable computation, precise execution, and continuous improvement through testing and validation., Collaborate with domain experts to understand algorithm objectives, constraints, and performance expectations Optimize software for performance using parallel processing techniques and hardware acceleration such as GPUs Convert algorithm prototypes developed in high-level environments into optimized implementations using lower-level languages for production use Design, implement, test, and debug software within real-time and distributed system environments Develop and execute large-scale simulations and performance testing across multi-core architectures Enhance system performance through profiling, tuning, and iterative optimization efforts Contribute to system architecture decisions and ensure alignment with overall program objectives Participate in design reviews and technical discussions to improve system quality, reliability, and maintainability Support integration and testing activities across complex, multi-component systems Collaborate with engineering teams to ensure seamless system integration and improved product outcomes
