The Senior Systems Software Engineer, Compute Stack Acceleration joins a senior engineering team dedicated to making the compute software stack first-class on NVIDIA CPU platforms. This role involves leading cross-stack engineering efforts to turn toolchains, build practices, and performance-analysis workflows into repeatable improvements across real software components. You will evaluate and deploy GCC and LLVM/Clang toolchains, manage linkers and sysroots, and integrate modern workflows into complex build systems and continuous-integration environments. Key responsibilities include utilizing link-time optimization, profile-guided optimization, and AutoFDO while using PMU data, flamegraphs, and binary analysis to identify performance findings. You will build automation, validation scripts, and dashboards to measure changes in runtime, code size, and engineering velocity while resolving integration blockers across compiler, platform, and library teams.
