Senior Software Engineer, MathDx – cuBLASDx and cuSolverDx

NVIDIA • Santa Clara, CA

107d • $148,000 - $287,500

About The Position

NVIDIA is looking for an expert software engineer to help us expand our catalog of Device eXtension (Dx) APIs for our math libraries. For over a decade, NVIDIA's accelerated computing platform has revolutionized HPC and AI with applications ranging from COVID-19 research to autonomous machines. Did you know that our team develops the GPU-accelerated mathematical libraries that make all of this possible? The hardware and software accelerated computing ecosystem is constantly evolving, including shifts towards hybrid backends, deep integration with high-level languages and ecosystems (such as Python, Numpy, JAX, MLIR…), and optimization at runtime for maximum flexibility and performance. Our Dx APIs allow developers to embed highly-optimized mathematical operations in their applications for these and other scenarios. You will be part of a team designing, developing, and optimizing math libraries for the future. If you are passionate about designing modern HPC libraries and want to build software that will stand the test-of-time as it accelerates countless applications, we might have the dream job you have been waiting for!

Requirements

• PhD or MSc degree in Computer Science, Applied Math, or a related science or engineering field is preferred (or equivalent experience).
