Staff Software Development Engineer - Rust, Compilers, and GPU Systems will join the team building next-generation systems software for AMD GPUs using Rust as a core technical direction. The role involves designing and implementing production-quality Rust components for low-level, performance-sensitive GPU systems, including compilers, runtimes, firmware, and developer tooling. Key responsibilities include designing compiler pipelines involving rustc, MIR, MLIR, and LLVM, as well as developing bare-metal and no std Rust components. The position requires expertise in GPU architecture, memory safety, concurrency, and hardware-software co-design. Candidates will utilize tools like LLVM, MLIR, and formal methods to ensure correctness across hardware-software boundaries. This work addresses the technical challenge of establishing Rust as a first-class engineering language for high-trust, performance-critical GPU software stacks.
