HPC Computational Scientist / Engineer

 

THE ROLE: 

AMD’s Software and Solutions Team is seeking a HPC and AI Computational Scientist / Engineer to optimize scientific computing applications for AMD  GPU platforms. This role requires strong foundational expertise in HPC application performance, GPU programming, and scientific simulation domains. As part of AMD’s GENCI Center of Excellence (COE), the engineer will collaborate directly with customer teams across academia, industry, and research laboratories to modernize, port, and tune applications for supercomputing and AI-enabled workflows. The role spans testing, tuning, performance engineering, and full-stack optimization for large-scale HPC workloads on AMD architectures. Candidates must be based in or willing to relocate to Paris, France.

 

THE PERSON: 

A highly motivated and passionate computational scientist, physicist, or engineer with deep expertise in HPC performance optimization, GPU programming, and scientific application development. This individual thrives in fast-paced, highly technical, cross-functional environments—collaborating with researchers, scientific software teams, and customer HPC groups to test, port, optimize, and scale complex simulation and modeling codes across domains such as finite element analysis, computational chemistry, weather modeling, fluid dynamics, and energy systems.

 

They will apply advanced performance engineering techniques across CPU and GPU execution paths; implement MPI, HIP, CUDA, and OpenMP parallel programming models; leverage HPC profiling tools; and contribute to emerging converged HPC/AI workflows.

 

The ideal candidate is proficient in Fortran or C/C++, experienced with HPC build systems, both CPU & GPU, revision control practices, and comfortable supporting geographically distributed teams. They must be self-motivated, collaborative, and able to work effectively in a team environment.

Additionally, they must be willing to work on-site, which is required for customer-facing responsibilities within the GENCI CoE.

 

 

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES: 

• Develop, port, and optimize high-performance computing software and applications for use on AMD hardware
• Work with other members of the COE team to collaboratively solve issues
• Represent AMD to the customer and other third parties, and act as the customer advocate when presenting to AMD audiences
• Engage with AMD product groups to drive resolution of customer issues
• Develop and present training materials to internal audiences, at customer venues, and at industry conferences 

 

PREFERRED EXPERIENCE: 

• Strong experience in scientific computing disciplines, distributed-memory parallel programming, HPC profiling tools, GPU acceleration technologies, and HPC application modernisation
•  
• Familiarity with converged HPC/AI workflows and major AI frameworks such as PyTorch or TensorFlow, as well as experience supporting large-scale simulation workloads, is highly desirable.
•  
• Must be proficient in French and English communications  

 

ACADEMIC CREDENTIALS: 

• PhD in Computer Science, Computational Physics, Engineering or related subjects, or equivalent experience
•  
• At least 5 years of relevant HPC and/or AI GPU experience in research or industry
