Senior ML Compiler Engineer

Job Description About ** theMission** GM’s vision of Zero Crashes, Zero Emissions, and Zero Congestion guides everything we do in autonomous and assisted driving. The AV organization is building advanced automated driving technologies,including Level 4–capable fully self-drivingsystems,tomove us toward safer, more sustainable, and more accessible mobility. For theAIKernels & Compilers team, that mission shows up in the details: turning cutting‑edgeperception, prediction, and planning research into production‑grade software that can run efficiently and reliably on real vehicles at scale. We pioneernew approachesto model export,kernel development, and performance engineering so that every cycle on our accelerators translates into better situational awareness, faster reaction times, and more robust behavior on the road. If you want your compiler andkernelsworktodirectlyinfluencehow automated vehicles understand and react to the world — whileoperatingatthesafety,reliabilityand scaleof a company like GM — this is where that impact becomes real. About the Team The AI Compiler team sits at the heart of how advanced AI models make it onto the car. We own the compiler that turns high‑level models into fast, reliable inference across GPUs powering GM’s next‑generation autonomous and assisted driving features. Our work spans graph lowering, operator coverage, kernel integration, and deployment tooling, with a mandate to squeeze every millisecond out of on‑vehicle workloads while preserving correctness and robustness in real‑world conditions. We partner closely withAI Deployments,AI Solutions, Runtime, andAI Kernelsteams to co‑designaplatform thatenablesnew ideasin researchto bequickly and safelyshippedto production fleets. You’lljoin a group ofdeepcompiler, systems, and GPU engineerswho enjoyworking onhard problems,anddiving into MLIR/ONNXand CUDA/TensorRTinternals. We value clear thinking, strong engineering fundamentals, and a culture where people can do the best work of their careers on problems that directly shape the future of automated driving. The Role As aSeniorCompiler Engineer on the AI Kernels & Compilers team, you willwork on thecompilation stack that takes high‑level models and turns them into highly optimized inference artifacts running on GM’s autonomous and assisted driving platforms.You’llbe a key contributor to a pipeline andtooling that makesthat path fast, reliable, andeffortlessfor ML engineers across the AV organizationto compile their models. You willwork on an evolvinga state-of-the-artmodel export and compilation pipeline—from capturing high‑level model graphs, through intermediate representations and compiler transforms, into accelerator‑specific inference engines and their integration with our runtime—so that we can simultaneouslyoptimizecompilation throughput, model fidelity, and on‑vehicle latency. Along the way,you’llbuild robust tooling tovalidatenumerical correctness,detectand bisect performance regressions, and surface clear, actionable diagnostics back to model authors. If you want to work at the intersection of compilers, performance engineering, and real‑world autonomy , this role puts your decisions directly on the critical path of what runs on the car. What you’ll be doing (Responsibilities) Buildand evolve the model compilation toolchain used to deploy large‑scaleperception, prediction, and planning models to the AV. Architect new compiler passes and analysis that improve build times, memory footprint, and runtime latency while preserving—or intentionally trading off—fidelity under strict safety and reliability constraints. Collaborate closely with kernels, runtime, and hardware teams to co‑design interfaces, shape accelerator capabilities, and ensure the compiler exposes the right abstractions to unlock peak performance on each platform. Set standards and best practices for model export, validation, and debugging so that AV teams can iterate quickly with clear, reproducible performance and accuracy characteristics. Your Skills & Abilities (Required Qualifications) 3+ years of experience in the field of compilers Experience with ML frameworks (e.g.,PyTorch, TensorFlow, JAX) and software stack (e.g.,ONNX,MLIR, XLA, TVM,TensorRT,etc) Expertisein writing production quality Python/C++ code Expertisein the software development life-cycle - coding, debugging, optimization, testing, integration BS, or higher degree, in CS/CE/EE, or equivalent What Will Give You A Competitive Edge (Preferred Qualifications) Experience building andoptimizingONNX‑basedmodelexport and deployment pipelines GPU programming (CUDA) and familiarity with ML SW stack (e.g.,cuDNN,cuBLAS) Experience with ML accelerators and hardware architecture Experience developing and deploying machine learning models Compensation The compensation information is a good faith estimate only.
