Compiler Verification Engineer - Compute

NVIDIA, Santa Clara, California, us, 95053


NVIDIA has been transforming computer graphics, PC gaming, and accelerated computing for more than 25 years. It’s a unique legacy of innovation that’s fueled by great technology—and amazing people. Today, we’re tapping into the unlimited potential of AI to define the next era of computing. An era in which our GPU acts as the brains of computers, robots, and self-driving cars that can understand the world. Doing what’s never been done before takes vision, innovation, and the world’s best talent. As an NVIDIAN, you’ll be immersed in a diverse, supportive environment where everyone is inspired to do their best work. Come join the team and see how you can make a lasting impact on the world.

What you’ll be doing:

Analysis: Analyze performance degradation or functional defect of compilers, identify regression root cause, suggest corrective action, and perform reviews to continuously improve testing.

Test Automation: Automate compiler testing using NVIDIA test frameworks and by programming. Includes test execution, test reporting, and results analysis and automation of build and test environments. Work with software compiler developers and assist in providing automated solutions for unit testing.

Test Operations: Use test suites to find, report and track compiler performance changes. Work with development team to drive regressions to resolution. Generate statistics based on performance data, identify and investigate outliers and monitor performance trends. Maintain historical data and baselines for comparison.

Compiler Test Development: Develop and review test plans, implement test cases, automate tests, integrate tests into NVIDIA test management frameworks, port 3rd party testing, and author test reports. May include integrating already existing tests into the compiler test automation.

Process Improvement: Use current iterative planning and test development processes. As part of team, identify potential or observed weaknesses in current process, offer ideas for actions that can improve quality, and participate in quality initiatives.

What we need to see:

Bachelor’s or Master’s Degree or equivalent experience.

2+ years’ work experience in a software development or test organization

Experience with Graphical/Linear/Hybrid/etc. IR

Have experience programming and/or testing in C/C++/CUDA as well as scripting languages.

Excellent communications skills, self-motivated and well organized.

Deep understanding of Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC), High-Performance Computing (HPC), and Software Testing Methodologies.

Compiler Domain Expertise: You should understand how compilers work and how compilers are implemented. Proven strength in problem solving and implement solutions.

Ability to work with various teams to generate a solution for performance regression and be productive under tight schedules and have strong analytical skills with attention to detail.

Be able to apply existing skills to new situations. Break large problems into smaller problems and further triage difficult performance regressions.

You have experience writing test plans, test development, test automation, test execution and reporting in a production environment.

Ways to stand out from the crowd:

Proficient experience with IR; Graphical/Linear/Hybrid/etc.

Proficient industry experience in testing production software. Preferably compiler or other system software.

Previous compiler development and/or compiler verification/test or performance analysis experience. Experience in ML compilers; LLVM, LIT framework

Experience with NVIDIA CUDA Toolkit, especially solving issues and debugging in Linux environment.

Familiarity with statistical analysis tools for identifying and isolating out-of-bound behavior
