Senior Deep Learning Compiler Verification Engineer

NVIDIA has been transforming computer graphics, PC gaming, and accelerated computing for more than 25 years. It’s a unique legacy of innovation that’s fueled by great technology—and amazing people. Today, we’re tapping into the unlimited potential of AI to define the next era of computing. An era in which our GPU acts as the brains of computers, robots, and self-driving cars that can understand the world. Doing what’s never been done before takes vision, innovation, and the world’s best talent. As an NVIDIAN, you’ll be immersed in a diverse, supportive environment where everyone is inspired to do their best work. Come join the team and see how you can make a lasting impact on the world.

We are building the next generation of compiler technologies to accelerate deep learning workloads. We are looking for an engineer to implement compiler verification software & related infrastructure in the AI space. You will be solving critical problems working alongside a diverse set of minds in GPU computing and systems software, doing what you enjoy. If this sounds like a fun challenge, we want to hear from you.

What you'll be doing:

• Design and build systems to reason about correctness in deep learning compilers, across graph transformations, IR lowering, and GPU execution

• Work with deep learning compiler and architecture teams to analyze and validate sophisticated optimizations (e.g., graph rewrites in MLIR, fusion passes, mixed-precision transformations), ensuring they preserve semantics and numerical behavior

• Engineer test generation systems that use deep learning solutions and analysis methods to drive in-depth testing. These systems explore the vast combinatorial space of model topologies, precision modes, and hardware targets.

• Define and improve how we measure and guarantee functional quality and performance as models, compiler stacks, and hardware continue to evolve

What we need to see:

• BS, MS or PhD in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Mathematics, or equivalent experience

• 3+ years of hands-on engineering experience in compiler development, deep learning systems, or compiler verification

• Must have deep proficiency in Python or C++ and experience with one major DL framework. This could be PyTorch, JAX/XLA, TensorRT, or a similar framework. Experience should involve model execution, graph representation, or runtime behavior.

• Strong systems intuition and debugging depth — ability to reason across abstraction layers, from high-level model semantics down to generated code, and track down failures that only manifest in edge cases!

Ways to stand out from the crowd:

• Compiler engineering experience including LLVM, MLIR, TVM, or XLA — you understand how passes are composed, how IR semantics are preserved, and where correctness breaks down

• Formal methods or language specification background: experience with type systems, program semantics, or proof-based verification

• DL model internals depth: experience with quantization, operator fusion, mixed-precision, or graph-level optimization

Widely considered to be one of the technology world’s most desirable employers, NVIDIA offers highly competitive salaries and a comprehensive benefits package. As you plan your future, see what we can offer to you and your family www.nvidiabenefits.com/
