Senior GPU Compiler Development Engineer

We are looking for experienced Systems SW Compiler Engineers for an exciting role in our PTX (Parallel Thread Execution) Compiler Development team. Join the PTX Compiler team and help drive PTX language design and PTX compiler evolution. PTX enables all GPU computing applications including HPC, Deep Learning and Autonomous Driving. PTX provides a stable programming model and portable instruction set architecture (ISA) for NVIDIA GPUs and is used by all compute programming languages compiled to NVIDIA GPUs. PTX is also used as a compiler target by various non‑NVIDIA compilers. Work with NVIDIA GPU architecture and CUDA programming model teams to build abstractions that expose new GPU features in portable and performant ways in PTX ISA. PTX Compiler (PTXAS) is responsible for the PTX ISA, the PTX Compiler front end, interaction with the optimizer, and runtime aspects involving object files, debug information, linkers, loaders and the driver compiler interface. As a senior member of the team, you will be responsible for leading efforts to enhance PTX Compiler infrastructure to support new compilation models for DL and Generative AI codes. You will contribute toward evolving the programming model for Generative AI and DL applications on GPUs. What you will be doing: Provide stewardship for PTX ISA and PTX Compiler infrastructure for Generative AI and DL. Collaborate with architecture and programming model teams to design and implement programming models for next‑generation GPUs. Work closely with others to help design the compilation stack and strategies for AI and DL workloads. Collaborate closely with teams developing related components to ensure compatibility, robustness, and high‑quality code generation. What we need to see: BS (or equivalent experience), MS or Ph.D. in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or related fields. 6+ years of experience in the area of compiler front end, programming language design, or compilers/linkers. Superb analytical and C/C++ programming skills. Able to expertly use AI tools and maintain AI generated artifacts. Experience in any one area of compiler development, including feature support, code generation, and compiler infrastructure. Excellent and strong interactive, verbal and written communication skills. Understanding of any processor ISA (GPU ISA an added plus). Good track record of developing, driving, and delivering software products. Ways to stand out from the crowd: Experience in programming language design and drafting programming language standards. Knowledge of GPU development and compute APIs such as CUDA and OpenCL. Development experience in LLVM IR, MLIR. With highly competitive salaries and a comprehensive benefits package, NVIDIA offers a salary range of 184,000 USD – 287,500 USD, equity, and other benefits. Applications for this job will be accepted at least until May 3, 2026. This posting is for an existing vacancy. NVIDIA uses AI tools in its recruiting processes. NVIDIA is committed to fostering a diverse work environment and is an equal opportunity employer.
