Staff Software Development Engineer - Rust, Compilers, and GPU Systems will join the team developing next-generation systems software for AMD GPUs using Rust as a core technical direction. The role involves building production-quality Rust components for low-level, performance-sensitive GPU systems, including compiler pipelines, runtimes, firmware, and developer tooling. You will work across various abstraction layers involving rustc internals, MIR, MLIR, LLVM, and target-specific code generation to improve the safety and correctness of complex hardware-software systems. Key technologies include Rust, C, C++, and specialized GPU architectures like GCN or RDNA. Responsibilities involve designing typed interfaces, managing ABI definitions, implementing analysis passes, and utilizing formal methods or program analysis to ensure reliability. The work addresses critical challenges in compiler infrastructure, memory safety, and the co-design of hardware-software interfaces for high-trust execution environments.
