Description

The company has worked on computer graphics, PC gaming, and accelerated computing for more than 25 years, and is now applying AI to the next stage of computing, where GPUs act as the processing core for computers, robots, and self-driving cars.

The team is growing quickly and is looking for an AI Compiler Engineer with deep compiler expertise. The role centres on AI-driven intelligence for production compiler pipelines, aimed at measurable gains in performance and efficiency, and on LLM-based workflows that support compiler decisions and developer productivity.

Ideal candidates bring wide machine learning experience, including reinforcement learning, genetic and evolutionary algorithms, predictive modeling, complex systems, and high-dimensional data analysis, along with solid grounding in compiler design and domain-specific languages.

Responsibilities

  • Work on AI-based tools for compilers and developer tooling, using applied machine learning.
  • Help shape next-generation compiler features for large, high-impact products alongside experienced engineers.
  • Own optimization workflows end to end, from feature engineering and model building to compiler integration and production release.
  • Build learning-based decision systems and plug them into compiler passes, code generation, and optimization pipelines.
  • Create reliable interfaces between LLM systems and compiler infrastructure for optimization advice, decision support, and workflow automation.
  • Work with compiler, architecture, and performance teams to measure impact on representative workloads and benchmark suites.
  • Lead experiments, evaluation, and deployment, holding work to high standards of reliability, scalability, and performance.

Requirements

  • A BS, MS, or PhD in computer science or a related field, or equivalent experience, with a focus on machine learning and compiler or developer tools.
  • 8+ years of experience in software engineering and AI/ML, ideally in tools or systems development.
  • Solid knowledge of compilers, code generation, and GPU architecture.
  • Proficiency in Python and C/C++.
  • A strong mathematical and scientific background applied to AI/ML and compilers.
  • Hands-on work with LLVM/MLIR compiler development, covering optimization passes, code generation, or frontend integration.
  • Experience building or integrating LLM-based systems, agents, or developer tools in production.

Conditions

Ways to stand out: familiarity with reinforcement learning, genetic and evolutionary algorithms, predictive modeling, and complex systems.

Ways to stand out: a record of deploying AI/ML solutions in production and embedded environments.

Ways to stand out: experience integrating LLMs into systems workflows with attention to reliability, latency, and evaluation quality.

Ways to stand out: measurable results such as runtime gains, faster compile times, or efficiency improvements on real workloads.

Ways to stand out: publications, open-source contributions, or patents in compilers, AI/ML systems, or performance engineering.

The base salary is set by location, experience, and other objective job-related factors, with an expected range of 184,000 USD to 287,500 USD.

Applications will be accepted until at least November 3, 2026. This is an existing open role.

The company uses AI tools in parts of its recruiting process.
