Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolMaxwell Cai is a deep learning research engineer and high-performance computing specialist with over a decade of R&D experience bridging computational astrophysics and AI for science. He develops and optimizes large-scale AI4Science and HPC workloads on modern accelerators at NVIDIA, after leading similar efforts at Intel and national supercomputing centers. With a PhD in astronomy, Maxwell brings a hybrid research-engineering mindset—building CUDA/MPI/OpenMP-accelerated simulation codes and neural models that respect physical priors and scale across supercomputers. He also teaches parallel ML and AI/HPC applications in physical sciences as an Affiliated Lecturer at Cambridge, translating industrial practice into curriculum. Notably, his open-source GPU integrator work for orbital dynamics demonstrates both domain depth and production-grade performance tuning.
