You will make our simulators and inversions fast. That means GPU solvers for geophysical and hydrothermal forward models, adjoints that scale, and a pipeline that simulates millions of ore systems as training data for our world model.
What your first year looks like
- Write GPU solvers for gravity, magnetics, IP, magnetotellurics and coupled thermal–hydraulic–chemical flow.
- Implement adjoints and differentiable solvers for large inversions.
- Build the pipeline that generates millions of simulated ore systems with their geophysical, geochemical and drillhole responses.
- Profile and scale inversion codes across multi-GPU nodes.
- Verify every solver with convergence tests and benchmarks against established codes.
You have:
- 4+ years writing high-performance PDE code.
- GPU programming in CUDA, JAX, Triton or similar.
- Finite-element or finite-volume methods, iterative solvers and preconditioning.
- Adjoint methods or automatic differentiation for PDE-constrained problems.
- Python and one of C++, Julia or Fortran.
Nice to have:
- A PhD in computational science, applied mathematics or geophysics.
- SimPEG, Devito, PETSc or reactive transport codes.
- HPC clusters (Slurm, MPI).
