THE ROLE:

AMD is looking for a Senior Software Engineer - GPU Profiling Tools for the Developer Tools team, where you will contribute to the development and optimization of GPU profiling tools for HPC and AI workloads. You will work alongside a team of skilled engineers, collaborating to enhance the profiling tools' capabilities and support broader strategic projects, including participating in new ASIC and hardware bring-ups.

THE PERSON:

The ideal candidate is passionate about software engineering and has the technical leadership skills to drive complex issues to resolution. The candidate should have a strong understanding of GPU and computer system architecture, advanced C++ programming skills, and a strong interest in GPU developer tools, profiling methodologies, and low-level systems software. The candidate should be detail-oriented, proactive in solving complex technical challenges, and able to communicate effectively across cross-functional teams.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES:

  • Collaborate with firmware, architecture, driver, and runtime teams to enable profiling for next-generation AMD GPUs in both pre-silicon and post-silicon environments
  • Design, develop, and maintain ROCprofiler-SDK components for GPU performance profiling
  • Design and implement firmware, driver, and runtime interfaces required for low-overhead, advanced profiling and telemetry features
  • Implement new features and APIs to enhance profiling capabilities for AI and HPC workloads
  • Optimize profiling tools for accuracy, scalability, and minimal overhead
  • Debug and resolve issues across application, runtime, driver, firmware, and hardware layers to improve tool reliability
  • Stay current with GPU architecture advancements and integrate them into ROCprofiler-SDK
  • Contribute to documentation and developer resources for ROCprofiler-SDK

PREFERRED EXPERIENCE:

  • Strong proficiency in C++ and object-oriented programming
  • Experience with performance analysis tools or profiling frameworks
  • Understanding of GPU architecture and system-level performance concepts
  • Experience with Linux kernel development, kernel drivers, firmware, or low-level system software
  • Experience with performance-monitoring technologies such as tracing, hardware counters, or similar profiling technologies
  • Experience debugging and developing software across multiple layers of the system stack, including applications, runtimes, drivers, firmware, and hardware interfaces
  • Experience with multithreading and concurrency in modern C++
  • Familiarity with ROCm ecosystem and tools is highly desirable
  • Experience with AI-powered developer tools and ability to effectively leverage them in day-to-day development workflows, including code generation, debugging, performance optimization, and productivity improvements
  • Experience with Git-based workflows and debugging tools
  • Familiarity with GPU programming models (HIP) is a plus
  • Strong problem-solving skills and ability to work independently and in a team
  • Knowledge of Linux development environments; Windows experience is a plus

ACADEMIC CREDENTIALS:

  • Bachelor’s or Master's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or equivalent

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
