Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolNoel Chalmers is a computational mathematician and software engineer with nine years of experience building high-performance scientific code, now a Founding Member of Technical Staff at Project Prometheus in Austin. He holds a Ph.D. in Applied Mathematics from the University of Waterloo and has a track record at AMD and leading academic postdocs developing GPU-accelerated solvers for incompressible/compressible fluid flows and seismic imaging. Noel specializes in high-order finite element methods, hp-adaptive discontinuous Galerkin schemes, and performant implementations using C/C++, Fortran, Python, MPI/OpenMP and CUDA/OpenCL. He bridges research and production, turning advanced numerical methods into scalable, GPU-first software and performance-tuned preconditioners. Colleagues rely on his ability to navigate both algorithmic theory and low-level optimization, often revealing unexpected speedups through precision and memory-layout choices. Based in Austin, he combines deep academic rigor with hands-on systems engineering to deliver practical, high-throughput scientific computing solutions.
