Principal Graphics System Software Engineer

Details

Computer Graphics is rapidly changing - AI and neural rendering, DLSS, ray-tracing and differentiable rendering all are relegating traditional triangle rasterization to small and shrinking percentage of the frame. This is causing a rethink of what it means to be a graphics API and driver: what does a graphics driver stack look like when the majority of the pixels created are generated through AI? How do we bring developers who’ve rendered triangles for 20 years over to this new world?

Responsibilities

• Design and implement new emerging graphics features that cut through the entire stack from top level graphics APIs through shading languages and into the driver stack.
• Driving neural graphics adoption into 3rd party API’s and into customer products.
• Leading multi-functional engineering team developing graphics systems.
• Collaborate with engineering leaders in NVIDIA graphics communities and define next-generation real-time graphics system and softwares for other accelerators in SoC.

Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree (or equivalent experience) in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related degree with a proven track record on impacting computer graphics industry.
• 15+ years of hands-on experience in shipping graphics driver and/or graphics software.
• Very deep knowledge of GPU hardware and related system software topics such as graphics driver, shader compiler, display, kernel, and operating systems.
• Strong technical leadership skills for cross-team decision-making on challenging technical or operational aspects of a project.
• Excellent written and verbal interpersonal skills, with the ability to work in a team spread across multiple time zones.
