Senior Software Developer (C++/HPC) (f/m/d)

at  GEMESYS GmbH

THE OPPORTUNITY

As a Senior Software Developer (C++/HPC) you will be an integral part of the core developer team at GEMESYS, which works on low-level optimization and scalable software for our brain-like chip. We are looking for a skilled Software Developer with extensive experience in C++ and familiarity with Python (advantageous) to join our team.
You will be at the forefront of cutting-edge technology, collaborating with excellent specialists to develop the foundational technology for new AI solutions in various industries such as healthcare, space, energy, and robotics.

As a (Senior) Software Developer (C++/HPC), you are responsible for developing, debugging, profiling, optimizing, testing, and documenting low-level software emulating our analog AI chip as a digital twin. Working closely with the Concept and Research team, you will build performance-optimized and scalable software to emulate our hardware chip. This role involves implementing numerical models of physical systems through numerical mathematics and digital signal processing in a high-performance computing (HPC) context. You’ll work on preliminary investigations using a digital twin of our analog chip, designed for AI training and inference on the edge.

• Design, implement, and optimize numerical models of physical systems using C++.
• Apply methods of numerical mathematics and digital signal processing within an HPC environment.
• Use HPC software design methods, e.g. multi-process/multi-node communication.
• Parallelize algorithms using CUDA and multithreading to achieve high computational efficiency.
• Profile and optimize computational workload to utilize available hardware fully
• Write unit tests and/or employ test-driven development.
• Create documentation and visualization of the developed software architecture.
• Create technical reports and present findings to the team and external stakeholders.
• Collaborate closely with cross-functional teams (software and hardware engineers) to implement performance-optimized hardware emulators.
• Support software development for preliminary research and investigations to advance our analog AI chip technology.
• Lead theproject planning and management with an agile approach to ensure adequate progress and adaptation.
• Work as a Dev-Ops engineer (development, testing, integration, and deployment).
• Stay current with industry trends, technologies, and best practices related to software engineering and solutions.
