RESUME AND JOB
Northrop Grumman
Benchmark and profile existing codes and workflows; identify bottlenecks and throughput limitations and establish path for improvement. Enable scaling of simulation and optimization software on HPC systems through the design and development of efficient serial and parallel algorithms. Develop and implement numerical simulation models and scientific algorithms for modeling physical processes of interest. Improve simulation performance via hardware-aware code optimization at the core, node, and system (internode) level. Develop, improve, and orchestrate complex HPC workflows that use off-the-shelf and custom modeling tools for efficient execution on HPC systems. Benchmark and profile new codes and workflows and report on improvements. Bachelor's degree in applied mathematics, computational chemistry, computer science, physics or a relevant STEM field with 5 years of relevant technical experience; Master's degree in applied mathematics, computational chemistry, computer science, physics or a relevant STEM field with 3 years of relevant technical experience OR Master's degree in applied mathematics, computational chemistry, computer science, physics or a relevant STEM field and currently enrolled in a PhD program with a completion date prior to start with 1 year of relevant technical experience; PhD in computational chemistry, applied mathematics, computer science, physics or relevant STEM field with 1 year of relevant technical experience.
