We are looking for software engineering interns for our Linear Algebra teams which are a key part of high-performance computing and deep learning software stacks. The main purpose of these libraries is to provide the fastest computing primitives for sparse and dense linear algebra, like Cholesky decomposition, direct and iterative solvers, and matrix products, among many others. We see strong interest in optimization of such key functionalities from various industrial and research organizations - from gaming and machine learning to autonomous driving and chip modeling. Some of these kernels spend several milliseconds while others involve hundreds of GPUs and run for hours; all of these operations need to be optimized for current and future GPUs which can also necessitate changing the underlying algorithms mathematically. Does the idea of being at the heart of these projects and applying your knowledge to develop and optimize algorithms which make an impact around world excite you? If yes, then come and join our team! During your internship, you will work with senior software engineers on the libraries team who will provide mentorship and guide you in developing highly optimized algorithms. Projects will involve implementing new numerical algorithms, defining APIs, analyzing performance, finding appropriate solutions for difficult numerical corner cases, and other general software engineering work.
