NXP is searching for a hands-on AI Compiler Engineer who thrives at the convergence of cutting-edge AI, compiler tech, and hardware design. Here, you’ll not only architect and scale a production-class AI compiler toolchain, but also rethink how AI automates, optimizes, and accelerates every step of building and deploying neural networks on NXP’s SoCs. You’ll work shoulder-to-shoulder with visionary engineers—both human and AI—enabling adaptive compilers that learn, evolve, and redefine what’s possible for embedded intelligence. With a relentless focus on hardware-software co-design, you’ll collaborate across teams to translate high-level AI models into blazing-fast, energy-efficient executables, unlocking the full potential of our silicon for real-world impact. Innovation here isn’t a catchphrase—it’s your everyday.

Job Responsibilities:

  • Own the design, implementation, and evolution of an AI compiler toolchain that leverages AI agents to seamlessly map neural networks onto NXP’s SoC platforms.
  • Pioneer new graph transformations, lowering, scheduling, and codegen strategies for CPUs and custom accelerators, driven by insights from AI-powered analytics.
  • Build deep integrations with leading AI frameworks (PyTorch, TensorFlow, ONNX, and more), using AI agents to rapidly onboard new model architectures and ops.
  • Push the envelope on quantization, operator fusion, memory planning, and layout transformations—combining human expertise and AI-guided design for state-of-the-art results.
  • Partner with hardware and software architects, kernel hackers, and AI agents to co-design next-gen compiler and accelerator features, aligning silicon and code for maximum impact.
  • Diagnose and crush performance bottlenecks with AI-enabled profiling and diagnostics, relentlessly tuning for latency, throughput, and power efficiency.
  • Level up validation, benchmarking, and regression pipelines by harnessing AI agents—ensuring compiler correctness and world-class performance, release after release.
  • Uplevel the developer experience by streamlining usability, diagnostics, and documentation—AI agents are your copilots for user support, troubleshooting, and rapid iteration.

Qualifications:

  • MS/PhD (or equivalent experience) in Computer Science, EE, or related field
  • Deep experience building AI compilers, accelerator backends, or graph optimization frameworks.
  • Strong expertise in graph optimization and performance optimization for NPUs or custom accelerators
  • Experience with MLIR, LLVM, TVM-like systems, or proprietary compiler IRs.
  • Excellent C/C++ and Python skills
  • Solid understanding of AI inference workloads (CNNs, transformers, perception or generative models)
  • Strong communication skills are required, e.g. agile development experience in Scrum team (Product Owner or Scrum Master)

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.
