  • A track record of working with industry standard compiler infrastructure such as LLVM
  • Knowledge of AI algorithms, scientific HPC applications and related code optimisations.
  • Meaningful contributions to free software and open source compiler communities.

With highly competitive salaries and a comprehensive benefits package, NVIDIA is widely considered to be one of the technology world’s most desirable employers.
