What is a GPU Programming job?

A GPU Programming job involves writing and optimizing code to run on Graphics Processing Units (GPUs) for parallel computing tasks. This role is commonly found in fields like machine learning, scientific computing, gaming, and data analytics. GPU programmers use languages such as CUDA, OpenCL, or Vulkan to accelerate computations and improve performance. They work closely with software engineers and data scientists to optimize algorithms for high-performance applications.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive in the Gpu Programming position, and why are they important?

To excel in GPU Programming, you need a strong background in parallel computing concepts, mathematics, and proficiency in languages such as CUDA, OpenCL, or DirectX/OpenGL, often supported by a degree in computer science, engineering, or a related field. Familiarity with NVIDIA and AMD GPU development tools, performance profilers, and possibly certifications like NVIDIA's Deep Learning Institute courses are valuable. Teamwork, effective communication, and strong problem-solving abilities are essential soft skills in this field. These competencies enable efficient development, optimization, and integration of high-performance GPU code in real-world applications.

What types of projects or applications do GPU Programmers commonly work on?

GPU Programmers are often involved in developing or optimizing software for high-performance applications such as machine learning, scientific simulations, real-time rendering in gaming and visualization, and video/image processing tools. Their daily work may include collaborating with software engineers, data scientists, and hardware teams to create efficient, scalable parallel algorithms that leverage GPU capabilities. The role frequently requires problem-solving to maximize computational efficiency and troubleshooting complex performance bottlenecks. By working across multidisciplinary teams, GPU Programmers help deliver robust solutions for data-intensive problems in areas like healthcare, finance, automotive technology, and entertainment.

Job description

WHAT YOU DO AT AMD CHANGES EVERYTHING
At AMD, our mission is to build great products that accelerate next-generation computing experiences-from AI and data centers, to PCs, gaming and embedded systems. Grounded in a culture of innovation and collaboration, we believe real progress comes from bold ideas, human ingenuity and a shared passion to create something extraordinary. When you join AMD, you'll discover the real differentiator is our culture. We push the limits of innovation to solve the world's most important challenges-striving for execution excellence, while being direct, humble, collaborative, and inclusive of diverse perspectives. Join us as we shape the future of AI and beyond. Together, we advance your career.
THE ROLE:
Our growing team plays a major role in architecting and shaping data center GPUs offered by AMD. As part of the Exerciser team, you will develop low-level software and GPU workloads designed to stress the system and uncover hardware and software issues early in the development cycle. You will collaborate closely with design, emulation, driver, firmware, and debug teams.
Candidates with a background or strong skills in both GPU and systems programming (Linux kernel and userspace) will excel in this role. Out-of-the-box thinking and leveraging of novel approaches to address tough technical challenges is encouraged. Join our growing team to accelerate the introduction of cutting-edge compute products into the datacenter market.
THE PERSON:
We are seeking a highly analytical and detail-oriented engineer with strong problem-solving skills. The ideal candidate has solid C/C++ programming fundamentals and experience working close to hardware (e.g., GPUs, CPUs, or embedded systems).
Experience with GPU programming and/or Linux systems (kernel or userspace) is a plus, but not strictly required. You should be comfortable working both collaboratively and independently, and able to ramp quickly in a fast-paced environment.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES:
  • Develop new applications utilizing knowledge of the underlying microarchitecture to discover issues in hardware and software
  • Participate in debugging to root cause critical issues
  • Contribute to in-house stress application frameworks

PREFERRED EXPERIENCE:
  • Modern C++ programming
  • Experience working with or close to hardware (GPU, CPU, or embedded systems)
  • GPU programming (CUDA, HIP, OpenCL) - strong plus
  • Understanding of GPU or CPU architecture - plus
  • Parallel programming, concurrency, and memory models
  • Low-level or firmware development
  • Linux systems programming (kernel or userspace)
  • Debugging complex issues across software and hardware boundaries
  • Experience in validation, bring-up, or stress testing environments

ACADEMIC CREDENTIALS:
  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or equivalent

LOCATION: Austin, TX or Folsom, CA
This role is not eligible for visa sponsorship.
