NVIDIA has been transforming computer graphics, PC gaming, and accelerated computing for more than 25 years. It’s a unique legacy of innovation that’s fueled by great technology—and amazing people.

Today, we’re tapping into the unlimited potential of AI to define the next era of computing. An era in which our GPU acts as the brains of computers, robots, and self-driving cars that can understand the world. Doing what’s never been done before takes vision, innovation, and the world’s best talent.

For our Developer Technology team in Wuerselen, Germany, we're now looking for a senior software engineer to help us address the growing focus on SoC platform execution models and to scale our developer ecosystem in this area. As an NVIDIAN, you’ll be immersed in a diverse, supportive environment where everyone is inspired to do their best work. Come join the team and see how you can make a lasting impact.

What you'll be doing:

• Work with our fast-pace developer ecosystem partners on optimizing their software applications to run at highest standard energy efficiency and at outstanding end-to-end runtime performance on new generation ARM platforms.

• Collaborate with internal engineering teams and become influential to full-stack system design by providing relevant runtime characteristics of real-world workflows and constantly challenge SoC design specifications by proof of concepts.

• Work hand in hand with other domain-expert team members to focus on computational intensive AI and 3D-graphics workloads.

• Stay on top of latest research about software optimization techniques on ARM platforms, perform targeted POCs and publish results as whitepapers or developer blogs and present your finding at developer conferences.

What we need to see:

• BS or MS degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Mathematics or related degree

• 5+ years of respective work experience as software developer

• Strong proficiency in C/C++, Python, software design, parallel programming techniques

• Confirmed expertise with developing native software on Windows and Linux operating systems

• A distinct passion for performance optimization of AI and/or 3D-graphics E2E workflows and in-depth experience with tools for profiling CPU/GPU code and memory transfers

• Fundamental understanding of SoC, CPU or GPU architectures

• Good communication and organization skills, with a logical approach to problem solving, good time management, and task prioritization skills

• Self-motivated, driven work ethic that thrives in a matrix environment

• Occasional travel for conferences and on-site visits with external partners

Ways to stand out from the crowd:

• Knowledge of most recent ARM architecture, ARM assembly and memory model

• Experience with the SSE, AVX, NEON or SVE instruction set extensions

• Expertise with GPU compute or graphics APIs, like CUDA, Vulkan, or DX12

• Hands-on with energy efficiency tuning on SoC platforms or embedded systems
