Description

Computer Graphics is undergoing a significant transformation spurred by the AI revolution. Slang, an open-source language and compiler for portable real-time graphics programming, is at the forefront of this transformation. We enable developers to leverage AI-driven, neural techniques in graphics workloads to create realistic and immersive experiences. Does this sound exciting to you? If so, the Slang team may be just the place!

We are looking for an experienced Senior Engineer with extensive end-to-end experience in designing programming languages and graphics systems. In this role, you will have a direct impact on ongoing critical projects at NVIDIA and beyond, and play a crucial role in shaping the future of computer graphics.

What You’ll Be Doing:

  • Invent the future of programming models for real-time graphics developers within an open-source shader compiler framework.

  • Collaborate with top-tier graphics engineers and neural graphics researchers to evolve and improve the language and compiler implementation.

  • Introduce new language constructs, implement critical optimizations, and add language support for GPU hardware capabilities.

  • Establish and drive product-critical performance and quality metrics.

  • Profile, debug, and optimize the Slang stack for both compile-time and run-time performance.

  • Coordinate with a distributed development team on a large code base using modern software development processes, including continuous integration, testing, and deployment.

What We Want to See:

  • M.S. or Ph.D. in computer science or equivalent experience.

  • 10+ years of experience in software development.

  • Proficiency in C++ and HLSL/GLSL.

  • Excellent software engineering fundamentals (source control, CI/CD, testing/validation, packaging, release). Proven track record developing, testing and releasing production-grade, complex software.

  • Extensive experience in developing and optimizing real-time rendering systems and/or parallel programming models.

  • Deep knowledge of compiler implementation techniques, including parsing, semantic checking, intermediate representations, and optimization.

  • Strong Collaboration skills to work with researchers, application developers, graphics drivers, and tools teams.

  • Familiarity with modern Graphics APIs such as Direct3D 12, Vulkan, and/or OptiX.

Ways to Stand Out from the Crowd:

  • Understanding of modern techniques in Machine Learning, Deep Neural Networks, and Generative AI, with relevant contributions to major open-source projects.

  • Proficiency in general-purpose languages such as Rust or Swift.

  • Experience in programming language design and implementation or type theory.

  • Proven track record in large-scale real-time graphics application development.

With competitive salaries and a generous benefits package, we are widely considered to be one of the technology world’s most desirable employers! We have some of the most forward-thinking and hardworking people in the world working for us and, due to unprecedented growth, our teams are rapidly growing.

The base salary range is 180,000 USD - 339,250 USD. Your base salary will be determined based on your location, experience, and the pay of employees in similar positions.

You will also be eligible for equity and benefits. NVIDIA accepts applications on an ongoing basis.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • We prioritize job seekers as our customers, unlike bigger job sites, by charging a small fee to provide them with curated access to the best companies and up-to-date jobs. This focus allows us to deliver a more personalized and effective job search experience.
  • Salaries for the engineering jobs on our site range from $100K-$200K. On average, senior engineer positions on our EchoJobs are about $160K.
  • The EchoJobs positions have been sourced and vetted from the top companies to work for in the US as a software engineer, including LinkedIn and other reputable job sites. We also have syndicated jobs from companies that have just raised funding, as well as those that have great unique products and culture. From all of these sources, our founder, Morgan, has also resourced the company's authenticity in terms of their website, public appearance, and more.
  • Yes, our users asked us for just this, so now our search filters allow you to search for your top jobs via location, as well as by onsite, remote, or both. Approximately 30% of our jobs are remote, so you’ve got the best options for you!
  • We have not yet implemented this option, but are considering doing so in the future. For the moment, you would need to cancel your subscription, and resubscribe when you wanted to come back.
  • We add new jobs to EchoJobs every day! We scan our sources for the newest jobs, verify them, and post them to EchoJobs within minutes. We add about 2,000-3,000 new jobs for you each day!
  • From starting your job search to getting hired, the entire job search process can take us software engineers anywhere between 3-6 months. However, at EchoJobs, we’re striving to shorten this duration by finding the best, newest jobs for you, so you can do less job searching, and more applying.
  • We’d recommend checking EchoJobs daily, as we add new jobs to the site each day. Additionally, if you got a chance to read our previous email on “what makes EchoJobs different from any other job search tools,” we also recommended that you set a job alert based on your job filters, so if you get emails on those new jobs, you could be checking more than once per day.
  • If you decide to continue with us after the 1-month trial, we definitely recommend this, as we all know it usually takes 3-6 months to find a quality job as a software engineer these days. So to best support you, we just adjusted our membership options at EchoJobs to monthly, 3 months, or 12 months (this option is more for passive job seekers looking a little bit for the future if they want to come back to work or make a job switch potentially. This lets you see what’s out there in case an even better fit job becomes available.)
  • EchoJobs is truly the only job site of its kind. We want to be THE spot for you to find the best job for you, and haven’t encountered any other company doing this. Other job sites are in niches besides software engineering or focus on a small portion of engineering jobs (like a specific coding language). In the words of Morgan, our founder, “I think what makes EchoJobs different is the amount of jobs, frequency that we add new jobs (we add 2,000-3,000 new jobs daily!), and the powerful search engines to find exactly the job you want more easily and efficiently. We can provide you with the most jobs that are vetted by us, we’ll continually find more new jobs for you, and we make it easier for you to apply and get hired.
