TL;DR · GPU Performance Modeling Driver Engineer

Role Posting Log in to save

As a GPU Performance Modeling Driver Engineer, you will join the Platform Architecture GPU Modeling team to drive advanced exploration for next-generation GPU architectures in iPhone, iPad, and Mac products. You will be responsible for creating and maintaining C++ code that models the software stack for future GPUs, specifically implementing Metal APIs to interact with functional and performance models. Your daily work involves developing a custom driver stack to support modern workloads like ray tracing and mesh shading while integrating graphics and compute APIs into the model itself. Collaborating with architects, compiler engineers, and software teams, you will perform performance experiments and analyze results to assess the feasibility of new hardware features. Required skills include C++ proficiency, GPU driver implementation experience, and familiarity with Metal, DirectX, Vulkan, or OpenGL.
