Job Description

The DL Performance Modeling Team’s core mission is to deliver full stack simulation infrastructure for deep learning applications across a spectrum of GPUs. We actively collaborate with architecture, software, product, and research teams to shape and refine the strategic roadmap of DL hardware and software

We are now looking for a Deep Learning Software Engineer to help develop simulation infrastructure. The software rapidly assesses new AI-accelerating GPU hardware and software advancements.

What you’ll be doing: 

  • Develop simulation backends that enable fast, scalable evaluation of AI workloads across NVIDIA compiler stacks.

  • Improve deep learning compiler kernel code generation and computational graph optimization using analysis based on modeled scenarios and performance insight.

  • Advance the modeling and optimization of datacenter-scale AI workloads and deployment scenarios.

  • Partner with architects and software teams to evaluate future GPU features and guide silicon and system-level design decisions.

What we need to see: 

  • A Masters (or equivalent experience) in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or a related STEM field; PhD preferred.

  • 3+ years of relevant experience in compiler optimization, architectural simulation, or related areas.

  • Strong hands-on experience with MLIR and compiler infrastructure.

  • Excellent C/C++ and Python programming skills, including software design, debugging, performance analysis, and test development.

  • Strong communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to thrive in a fast-paced, multi-functional, outcome-focused environment.

Ways to stand out from the crowd:

  • Experience designing and building compiler frameworks or intermediate representations from the ground up.

  • Deep understanding of LLM inference workloads and their implications for computer architecture.

  • Hands-on experience implementing and optimizing complex AI workloads on CPUs, GPUs, or custom accelerators.
