A leading semiconductor technology organization is hiring a GPU driver engineer to develop and optimize software across API layers, kernel-mode drivers, firmware, scheduling, memory management, and performance. The role offers broad exposure to both hardware and software development for next-generation graphics and compute platforms.
Highlights
Work across the full GPU software stack, collaborating with architecture and microarchitecture teams while optimizing next-generation graphics hardware and software.
Description
Job Description
About the Role: Bring your GPU driver expertise and work closely with our Architecture and Micro-architecture teams.
In this role, you will contribute across the GPU software stack and help extract maximum performance from the silicon while supporting the development of our next-generation GPU designs.
This is not a siloed driver role.
You will have opportunities to work across industry-standard graphics and compute APIs, kernel-mode drivers, GPU firmware, performance optimization, and hardware/software integration.
What You’ll Do — The Full Stack:
API Layer: Develop, debug, and optimize features for industry-standard APIs including Vulkan, DirectX, OpenGL ES, and OpenCL.Kernel & Firmware: Work on kernel-mode drivers and GPU firmware to improve hardware control, stability, scheduling, memory management, and execution efficiency.Performance: Analyze and optimize bottlenecks across the stack, including driver overhead, memory bandwidth, GPU scheduling, compute throughput, and power/performance tradeoffs.Cross-Team Collaboration: Work closely with Architecture, Micro-architecture, Compiler, and GPU Model teams to validate GPU behavior, debug complex issues, and improve software/hardware interaction.System-Level Debugging: Investigate issues across user-mode drivers, kernel-mode drivers, firmware, and hardware models to improve stability, correctness, and performance.
Why This Role?No Silos: You are not restricted to only one layer of the stack.
You will have the opportunity to work across APIs, drivers, firmware, and performance.Hardware-Software Impact: Your work will help the software stack fully utilize GPU hardware capabilities.Next-Gen GPU Exposure: You will collaborate with architecture, compiler, and modeling teams on technologies that shape future GPU products.
