Senior Software Engineer - Python & C++

Responsibilities

• Work closely with our Architects and Algorithms Engineers to understand the needs and build, implement and/or optimize the most elegant solutions — in modern C++ and Python
• Set the bar for what “good software” means inside A&A: reviewing code, mentoring engineers from non-software backgrounds, and bringing the rest of the group up with you
• Implement detailed, focused “tweaks” into the SDK and the wider video stack. These changes let researchers test new ideas without forking the world. Walk research code through to a shipping NVENC/NVDEC release when needed.
• Profile and optimize critical paths in the codec stack; reach for CUDA when CPU-side optimization is not enough
• Build and sharpen the small libraries, frameworks and tools the team uses every day, and make sure they are a joy to work with
• What We Need To See
• B.Sc. in Computer Science or Electrical/Computer Engineering
• 8+ years of relevant proven experience (or 5+ years and a relevant M.Sc.)
• Proficiency in modern C++ (C++14/17/20) — templates, RAII, concurrency, move semantics, the standard library, the works
• Proficiency in Python — idiomatic, performant, well-tested, with a strong sense of what is appropriate for C++ and what suits Python
