Job Details

Summary

Join a team of expert software engineers with diverse backgrounds (graphics, video encoding, video processing, file systems, CPUs and caching, kernel programming, embedded systems) to develop graphics validation software and integrate it into system level test environment.

Key Qualifications

Experienced with Graphics, OpenGL, and CUDAExperienced with image processing, memory hierarchies, and compilersStrong C/C++ programming skillsImplement and run ML/LLM workloads for GPU characterizationProficient in Python and GNU MakeDeep understanding of compute systems, operating systems, and computer architecturePassionate about writing code close to the hardware, and debuggingIn-depth knowledge and experience in SoC system level validation and debugging of SoC software and hardware issues.You enjoy the validation mentality: meticulous, curious, and persistentUnderstanding of the Display pipeline is a plus

Description

You will be writing shaders that stress the GPU and cause high bandwidth traffic to and from the memory subsystem.You will apply your deep understanding of GPU architecture to write tests that stress the pipeline and exercise the interaction between the GPU and different IP blocks on the SoC.You will use the necessary driver and firmware APIs to compile shaders and prime operations to move data around in the SoC using the GPU threads/SIMD groups.You will understand the different levels of GPU memory hierarchy (Shared, Global, etc.)You will debug SoC software and hardware issues, and perform system level validation.

Education & Experience

BS and a minimum of 3 years relevant industry experience
