Senior HPC Performance Engineer

As a member of NVIDIA’s NVHPC compilers & tools group, you will analyze and run high‑performance computing (HPC) applications on HPC servers and systems to gain insight into their performance characteristics. The applications you’ll work with range from small synthetic benchmarks that use a single core to full applications that utilize all resources on distributed‑memory systems with heterogeneous compute nodes, including CPUs, GPUs and many‑core processors. In this role you will analyze these applications and identify optimization opportunities for compiler development teams and application engineering teams. What You’ll Be Doing Assist customers in GPU‑accelerating HPC applications. Analyze high‑performance computing (HPC) applications to better understand their performance characteristics. Provide advice and drive compiler and applications engineering development teams based on the analysis of these HPC applications. What We Need To See BS/MS or equivalent experience in Computer Science or a related engineering field. 8+ years of programming experience. Solid understanding of Fortran, C, C++, and programming techniques, especially for parallel architectures, preferably for compilers. Experience with OpenACC, OpenMP, MPI, and CUDA. Strong skills in performance analysis and tuning, as well as a broad understanding of parallel applications development tools and runtime environments. Strong mathematical fundamentals, including linear algebra and numerical methods. Understanding of performance considerations, tradeoffs, and impact. Expert interpersonal skills, a logical approach to problem solving, good time management and task prioritization skills, and excellent written and verbal communication skills, along with the ability to work in a dynamic product‑oriented team. Ways To Stand Out From The Crowd Deep understanding of machine architectures and micro‑architectures. Experience with debugging and porting, as well as assembly language programming, is a significant advantage. Experience leading and/or managing projects is a plus. Your base salary will be determined based on your location, experience, and the pay of employees in similar positions. The base salary range is $184,000 USD – $287,500 USD.
