As a GPU Simulation System Software Engineer on the GPU architectural modeling team, you will develop core infrastructure for modeling, analyzing, and debugging large-scale, general-purpose graphics and computing chips. You will work at the interface between software drivers and GPU simulation to run applications in diverse environments while gathering instrumentation requirements from architects. Your daily responsibilities include coordinating with hardware teams to enable functional and performance testing for next-generation architectures and collaborating with software teams to deliver production-ready drivers. The role requires strong C++ programming skills, knowledge of object-oriented build patterns, and experience with the software driver stack in compute or graphics domains like CUDA, DX, OpenGL, or Vulkan. You will solve complex problems regarding chip simulation, test authoring languages, and performance enhancements to support the development of advanced GPU hardware.
