Details

Computer graphics is experiencing its most exciting transformation in decades. Neural techniques are reshaping how we render, simulate, and create visual content in real time — and we're just getting started.

At NVIDIA, the Neural Graphics team builds technologies at the intersection of AI and real-time rendering. The team reaches millions of developers and creators through products like Alpasim, open platforms like Slang (shader language and compiler for portable GPU programming), and works on problems across graphics and AI.

Responsibilities

Implement and optimize neural graphics techniques within real-time rendering pipelines
Prototype neural rendering, differentiable graphics, and generative 3D approaches
Collaborate across teams to move ideas from concept to production
Contribute to the graphics software stack, including compilers, shaders, and runtime tools

Requirements

BS, MS, or PhD in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Physics, or a related field (or equivalent experience)
At least 2–4 years of practical experience and demonstrated ability in C++ and Python
Coursework or project experience in computer graphics, machine learning, or computer vision
A drive to learn, grow, and take on challenging problems

Ways to Stand Out

Hands-on experience with neural rendering (NeRF, Gaussian splatting, differentiable rendering) or generative AI for 3D content
Experience with PyTorch and real-time rendering engines
Familiarity with graphics APIs (Vulkan, OpenGL, DirectX), shader programming (Slang, HLSL, GLSL), or compiler development

Compensation and benefits

Base salary ranges (location, experience, and comparables considered):
- Level 2: 124,000 USD - 195,500 USD
- Level 3: 152,000 USD - 241,500 USD
Eligible for equity and benefits (see company benefits page)
