Senior Software Engineer – Accelerated Quantum Chemistry and cuEST

NVIDIA is looking for an outstanding senior software engineer to join our endeavor to accelerate quantum chemistry on NVIDIA GPUs: cuEST. Launched in March 2026, cuEST is a CUDA-X math library. It provides accelerated APIs for essential functions related to electronic structure computations. The library starts with Gaussian-basis quantum chemistry. We are constantly working to improve the feature set, performance, and technology stack of cuEST, and are looking for new teammates to help drive the next generation of cuEST development.

This role will enable you and your colleagues to expand the frontiers of electronic structure theory. It will provide incredible performance for applications ranging from drug discovery to semiconductor process development. At one level, you will be engaged with the day-to-day engineering activities of a high-performance math libraries engineering team building and shipping cuEST. At another level, you will continually innovate and develop new algorithms that improve the flexibility of practical quantum chemistry.
