Senior Developer Technology Engineer, CPU Performance

What you'll do

• Research and develop techniques to accelerate large-scale applications on NVIDIA CPU platforms.
• Perform in-depth analysis and optimization of complex database and data analytics workloads.
• Publish and present discovered optimization techniques in developer blogs and at relevant conferences.
• Influence the design of next-generation hardware architectures, software, and programming models.
• Investigate hardware and system bottlenecks to optimize performance on heterogeneous computing systems.
• Design parallel algorithms and implement optimizations in an accelerated computing environment.
• Work with external technologists to investigate and improve the performance of their applications.

What we're looking for

• Masters or PhD in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or a related computationally focused science degree (or equivalent experience).
• At least 5+ years of relevant work or research experience.
• Expert knowledge of modern CPU architectures (ARM, x86) and system/OS.
• In-depth expertise with CPU architecture fundamentals, especially memory subsystems like cache, DRAM, and storage.
• Hands-on experience with low-level parallel programming, vectorization, CPU intrinsics, and concurrent data structures.
• Programming fluency in modern C/C++ with a deep understanding of algorithms, concurrency, and optimization techniques.
• Experience optimizing the performance of distributed database systems and frameworks (preferred).
• Background with compression, storage systems, networking, distributed computer architectures, or knowledge of GPU architectures (preferred).
