What is the difference between Compilers Engineer vs Software Developer?

AspectCompilers EngineerSoftware Developer
Required CredentialsBachelor's or higher in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or related fields; knowledge of programming languages and compiler theoryBachelor's degree in Computer Science or related field; proficiency in programming languages
Work EnvironmentResearch and development teams, often in tech companies or academia, focusing on compiler design and optimizationVaried environments including startups, tech firms, or corporate IT teams, developing applications or systems
Industry UsagePrimarily in compiler development, programming language design, and systems softwareAcross software applications, web development, mobile apps, and enterprise solutions

While both roles require strong programming skills and a background in computer science, Compilers Engineers specialize in designing and optimizing compilers and language tools, whereas Software Developers create a wide range of software applications. The roles often overlap in programming expertise but differ in focus and industry application.

Job description

NVIDIA's HPC compiler group wants to hire a Fortran compiler developer to join the team building one of the world's most important optimizing compilers. If you want a front-row seat to state of the art compiler development for high-performance computing, then we want you! We're implementing Flang with a keen interest in high-level optimization of Fortran, OpenACC, and OpenMP.

What you'll be doing:

  • Solve difficult problems at the intersection of compilers, programming models, and high-performance computing architectures

  • Implement and improve features in LLVM Flang, OpenACC, and OpenMP.

  • Participate in the evolution of standard language parallelism for GPUs and Multicore CPUs

  • Balance individual effort with teamwork throughout debugging, prototyping, and productization

  • Discuss and refine software designs and implementation strategies with peers

  • Partner with application teams to investigate interesting and meaningful compilation challenges from the HPC community

What we need to see:

  • 6+ years experience working on a production Fortran compiler

  • Bachelors, Masters, or Ph.D. Degree in Computer Science, ECE or equivalent experience

  • Proven understanding of compiler internals including experience with semantic analysis

  • Knowledge of programming fundamentals, especially in C/C++, with a deep understanding of parallel computer architectures and optimizations

Ways to stand out from the crowd:

  • Deep understanding of Fortran semantics

  • Direct experience with Flang is a huge plus

  • Experience writing code using Modern C++

  • Familiarity with OpenACC, OpenMP, or CUDA

  • You have a real passion for compiler development

With competitive salaries and a generous benefits package, we are widely considered to be one of the technology world's most desirable employers. We have some of the most forward-thinking and hardworking people in the world working for us and, due to unprecedented growth, our exclusive engineering teams are rapidly growing. If you're a creative and autonomous program manager with a real passion for technology, we want to hear from you.

Your base salary will be determined based on your location, experience, and the pay of employees in similar positions. The base salary range is 184,000 USD - 287,500 USD.

You will also be eligible for equity and benefits.
