We are hiring a Senior System GPU Performance Engineer to maximize the performance and power efficiency of production GPU systems. You will connect workload behavior, silicon capability, software policy, and platform constraints to identify bottlenecks and productize improvements.

Responsibilities

  • Own system-level GPU performance and power characterization from first silicon through production across representative applications, benchmarks, and product configurations.
  • Drive performance and power feature productization, translating measured behavior into firmware, driver, BIOS, platform, and silicon recommendations that meet product targets and speed-of-light schedules.
  • Design experiments, execute test plans, and build models that isolate bottlenecks across GPU compute, memory, interconnect, CPU interaction, power delivery, and thermal limits.
  • Analyze production-silicon data across process, voltage, temperature, workloads, and bins to quantify performance-per-watt trade-offs and identify causal optimization opportunities.
  • Lead multi-functional root-cause closure across architecture, design, validation, software/firmware, power and thermal, reliability, ATE, product management, manufacturing, and operations; own fixes through confirmation.
  • Establish reusable automation, visualization, and closed-loop methodologies that improve experiment coverage, analysis accuracy, debug velocity, and learning across future GPU programs.
  • Translate complex system signals into decision-ready options for executive leadership on feature readiness, product configuration, targets, and program risks.
  • What we need to see
  • BS or MS in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Systems Engineering, or related field (or equivalent experience).
  • 8+ overall years of experience in GPU or system performance engineering, post-silicon characterization, silicon productization, or hardware-software performance optimization.
