GPU Kernel Expert
Temporary
Mercor
Evaluate the quality, correctness, and completeness of GPU/accelerator kernel development tasks used to train and evaluate a frontier AI lab's models. You'll assess numerical correctness, performance-benchmarking fairness, task scoping, and compilation/runtime validity across diverse kernel task types, and provide clear, rubric-based written feedback.
Basic Qualifications
- 3+ years of hands-on experience developing, optimizing, or verifying GPU/accelerator kernels in at least two of: CUDA, Triton, NKI, or Pallas (JAX)
- Strong understanding of numerical-correctness criteria for kernels (absolute/relative/ULP tolerances, reference-implementation selection)
- Demonstrated experience with performance profiling and benchmarking (nsight, ncu, roofline analysis, or framework-native profilers)
- Familiarity with common compilation and runtime failure modes (driver mismatches, OOM, launch-configuration errors, shape/stride mismatches, autotuning failures)
- Experience with at least three kernel task types: generation from specification, translation/lowering across frameworks, migration between hardware targets, debugging, performance optimization, or operator fusion
Preferred Qualifications
- Experience across both NVIDIA GPU (CUDA/Triton) and custom-accelerator (NKI/Pallas/TPU) ecosystems
- Background in compiler engineering, MLIR, or intermediate-representation lowering
- Understanding of memory-hierarchy optimization (shared-memory tiling, register pressure, bank conflicts, coalescing patterns)
- Contributions to kernel libraries (cuBLAS, cuDNN, Triton community kernels, JAX/XLA custom calls)
