As a Senior Compiler Engineer joining the Compute Compiler Team, you will collaborate closely with LLVM, Clang, MLIR, and related open-source communities to upstream compiler features from NVIDIA’s downstream repositories. Your daily tasks include leading design discussions, contributing to RFCs, and conducting code reviews while ensuring long-term maintainability and broad usefulness of solutions. You will also refactor and adapt internal compiler code to meet upstream quality standards and advocate for NVIDIA’s technical needs through credible engineering arguments and sustained community engagement. This role requires a deep understanding of compiler internals, excellent C++ programming skills, and experience with open-source development workflows. Ideal candidates have a background in computer science or related fields, 6+ years of LLVM infrastructure experience, and a proven track record of upstream contributions to the LLVM project.
