Context

We have pioneered and become the world-leader of organic Crystal Structure Prediction. With our pharmaceutical industry customers and staff from all around the world, we are inventing the next generation of software tools for in silico materials design.

Your responsibilities

AMS´ GRACE software is the most scientifically advanced software package for Crystal Structure Prediction (CSP). Depending on your interests and skills you will expand GRACE in various directions:

C++ Math Libraries

Linear algebra, derivatives, vectorization and optimization: you are willing to sacrifice neither performance nor the beauty of the library interface. Being an experience C++ software developer knowing all the dusty corners of template libraries and inheritance, you will create the math libraries our scientific software depends on. You will also train new software developers on the C++ language.

Computing Infrastructure

The cost of scientific computing matters to you. You would never compromise data security, but you know that there is a world of computing resources beyond your in-house LINUX cluster. By navigating through company networks and clouds to make calculations run on the most cost-effective hardware, you will push the limits of scientific computing.

Machine Learning

You are a machine learning expert with a passion for atomistic modeling. Together with our domain experts you will introduce machine learning techniques in complex molecular modelling work flows to enable the next generation of industrial applications.

Your profile

Do you share our vision and values?

• You are committed to reduce the carbon footprint at work and care about Ethics in Business
• Can-do attitude
• You are rigorous, precise and solution-oriented
• You can execute complex sub-projects independently
• You are pragmatic and willing to accept the constraints of a historically grown code
• You have a genuine interest in the development of efficient computer algorithms
• Intercultural awareness: our customers and teams come from all over the world. Thus, it is important to be able to adapt to different mentalities and cultural contexts.

Hard skills

Both expert knowledge and hands-on experience in at least one of the domains mentioned in the “Your responsibilities“ section

• Object oriented and template programming in C++
• A strong molecular modelling background
• Fluent written and spoken scientific English

Education

Master in computer science, PhD in physics, chemistry, or a related field.
