TL;DR · Math Libraries Intern

JOB TITLE: Math Libraries Intern, cuEST - Summer 2027 The Math Libraries Intern, cuEST - Summer 2027 joins the team building cuEST, a CUDA-X math library designed to accelerate quantum chemistry on NVIDIA GPUs. This role involves developing highly optimized algorithms and numerical methods for electronic structure computations, specifically focusing on Gaussian-basis quantum chemistry primitives. Interns will prototype GPU-accelerated algorithms, analyze CUDA performance, define APIs, and handle numerical corner cases to ship production-ready software. The work supports applications like drug discovery and semiconductor process development. Candidates should possess skills in C/C++ or Python, debugging, performance analysis, and test design. The role requires strong fundamentals in algorithms and numerical methods. Desired experience includes GPU programming with CUDA or OpenCL, research in quantum chemistry, knowledge of floating-point arithmetic, and hardware architecture.

What you'll do

  • Prototype and develop GPU-accelerated algorithms for Gaussian-basis quantum chemistry primitives.
  • Analyze the performance of CUDA implementations and implement identified improvements.
  • Contribute to the full engineering lifecycle including design, testing, and production code.
  • Define APIs for essential functions in electronic structure computations.
  • Solve difficult numerical corner cases within the cuEST library.
  • Research how quantum chemistry applications utilize the library to identify user needs.
  • Develop highly optimized numerical methods for quantum chemistry applications.

What we're looking for

  • Pursuing a BS, MS, or PhD degree in Computational Chemistry, Computational Physics, Computer Science, Applied Math, or an equivalent program area.
  • Excellent C/C++ or Python programming, debugging, performance analysis, and test design skills.
  • Strong algorithms and numerical methods fundamentals.
  • Ability to work independently and lead your own development effort.
  • Good teamwork, communication, and documentation habits.
  • GPU programming experience in CUDA or OpenCL (preferred).
  • Coursework or research experience in quantum chemistry or electronic structure theory (preferred).
  • Knowledge of floating-point arithmetic, numerical error analysis, hardware architecture, or agentic AI tools (preferred).
