Senior DX12 / Graphics Engineer

Project Description:

Be a core member of the GPUOpen SDK team owning graphics API integration, sample fidelity, and performance for cutting-edge hardware. You'll deliver DX12/Vulkan samples and runtime components, profile and optimize render workloads, and help ensure compatibility with drivers for quarterly SDK releases.

Responsibilities:

Architect and implement high-quality, cross-API graphics samples and SDK components (DX12, Vulkan).

Develop and optimize rendering/compute paths for real-time use cases; ensure high-fidelity output.

Profile GPU workloads, investigate frame-level regressions, and collaborate with driver teams to resolve issues.

Maintain and enhance graphics test harnesses (headless rendering, capture/replay, reference-frame comparisons).

Author clear, reproducible test cases and sample code for developer consumption.

Participate in release branch cut, RC testing, and partner canary previews for hardware launches.

Mandatory Skills Description:

5+ years experience in graphics engine, rendering, or SDK development with C++.

Deep working knowledge of DirectX 12 (DX12) and/or Vulkan, GPU pipeline, synchronization and memory models.

Strong debugging skills for rendering issues and performance bottlenecks.

Experience with multithreaded rendering and CPU/GPU performance tradeoffs.

Familiarity with CI-driven development and automated test harnesses.

Nice-to-Have Skills Description:

Shader authoring experience (HLSL/GLSL), ray tracing experience (DXR/VKRT).

Experience profiling with GPU performance tools and driver collaboration experience.

Experience with game engines (Unreal, Unity) or rendering middleware.

Knowledge of render fidelity testing, SSIM/PSNR-based comparisons and visual regression tooling.

Familiarity with video pipelines and encode/decode considerations.
