The Staff Software Development Engineer - Rust, Compilers, and GPU Systems joins the team building next-generation systems software for AMD GPUs. This role focuses on establishing Rust as a core technical direction for performance-sensitive and high-trust parts of the GPU stack. You will design and implement production-quality Rust components, including compiler pipelines involving rustc, MIR, MLIR, and LLVM IR. Responsibilities include developing target-specific lowering for GPU execution models, defining typed interfaces across firmware and hardware boundaries, and building bare-metal no_std components. You will utilize tools like fuzzing, property-based testing, and formal methods to ensure correctness. The work addresses the complex problem of hardware-software co-design, ensuring memory safety, ABI compatibility, and predictable hardware effects across compilers, runtimes, and GPU architectures.
