Job description for intern
Ptychography is an advanced data processing technique for reconstruction of the sample's electrostatic potential from electron diffraction patterns. It allows for a resolution far surpassing the microscope's nominal resolution, and to overcome other hardware limitations.
In this role you will develop the reconstruction algorithm further, paying particular attention to memory management on the CPU and GPU; execution speed of the code; and the trade-off between the two. Maintainability and scalability of the code base is important, as is the ease with which new scientific advantages could be included later on, and a user-friendly experience for first-time ptychography users.
Requirements
A computer science, mathematics or physics background
Extensive experience with software development
Intimate knowledge of python
Experience with JAX, PyTorch, or other machine learning packages
Experience with GPU processing
Familiarity with wave optics and/or materials science is an advantage
