About the role:
The Computational Biology group at 10x Genomics is looking for an outstanding graduate student intern to work with us in the summer of 2023. This person will develop high-performance image analysis algorithms for single-molecule localization / super-resolution microscopy targeting GPUs to power our next generation of spatial genomics products. This person will work closely with our imaging and assay-development teams to push the state-of-the-art of in-situ sequencing.
Interns will work on a mix of “real-world” product features that will ship to customers soon, and longer-term exploratory proof-of-concept work to test new ideas.
Individuals applying for this position should have a strong background in computer vision and machine learning. You have a deep understanding of the theory, implementation, and practical application of various relevant algorithms. You can take an idea, quickly implement it in code, and evaluate its performance. You must be self-starters, strategic thinkers, action driven, and thrive in a fast paced environment.

Key Opportunities
- Select, implement, test, and optimize image processing methods to extract relevant information from imaging data.
- Rapidly prototype methods for internal experiments & early R&D
- Build analytical models or simulations to understand and communicate key trade-offs of imaging system design and data quality.
- Create high-quality and robust implementations of production algorithms.
Required Skills and Background
- PhD student in computational biology or other quantitative field (e.g., physics, mathematics, computer science, statistics, electrical engineering or similar)
- Strong skills in high-performance numerical computing for optimization and inverse problems.
- Strong programming ability in CUDA or related tools, or Rust/C/C++
- Ability to research existing methods from literature, adapt them to the problems at hand, and turn them into well architected code.
- A combination of mathematical depth with a healthy respect for the imperfections inherent in real-world data.
- Experience with cell, fluorescence, and/or histology imaging is a plus.
